PureBliss Millionaire Promo 60 Millionaires In 60 Days Promo

By Adedapo Adesanya

**56 Other Millionaires To Emerge

Four customers of Pure Bliss have been given N1 million each in the ongoing 60 Millionaires In 60 Days Promo in Lagos and Kano States on Friday, July 14, 2023, in a bid to delight its consumers and stay true to its brand promise of bliss and mood upliftment.

The four lucky customers rewarded were Mr Tunbosun Folarin, a project manager from Ogun State; Ms Ayanboye Temitope, a businesswoman and resident of Ikorodu, Lagos State; Ms Pauline Godfrey, a fashion designer who lives in Nassarawa and Mr Abubakar Muhammed, a trader, and resident of Kano State. They are the first four verified winners in the second edition of the promo currently ongoing in Nigeria.

Ayanboye Temitope, the winner from Ikorodu, Lagos narrated how she could not contain her disbelief and shock when she initially received the instant SMS notification of winning One Million Naira. “When I saw the new Promo design on the Pure Bliss biscuit pack, I decided to try because my neighbour told me how people were winning airtime. That day, I bought two packs – one had to try again, and the second one had a code. I followed the instructions on the pack and received an SMS that I won One Million Naira, but I did not believe it. I was even angry with my neighbour because I did not receive the instant airtime. Only for me to receive a call from Pure Bliss later that day. I still did not believe it but I still decided to do the verification process. Even as I am here, I am still in shock, I am so happy, and I now believe. Pure Bliss, thank you…”, Temitope echoed.

Pauline Godfrey, a Million Naira Winner from Nasarawa State, also expressed her joy for the prompt reward as it would help cushion some economic hardship. “It is indeed a joyous day in my household. One million Naira in this economy? I was doubting at first because I did not expect to ever win a promo! In Nasarawa! I will continue to tell everyone I know. Pure Bliss, please keep it up”, an elated Pauline said.

Tunbosun Folarin, another million Naira winner and resident of Ogun State, said he had his kids to thank for participating in the promo. “I buy Pure Bliss for myself and the kids so on that fateful day, I ate the last Pure Bliss wafers meant for the kids before dinner. I opened a pack, saw a code, and decided to give it a try. I’m so happy and will put some of the money into my wife’s business. And my kids? They will definitely feel that Pure Bliss has touched me.” Mr Folarin said.

The winners were presented their respective cheques of one million Naira each in Lagos and Kano states by the Pure Bliss Team and the Zonal representatives of the NLRC, FCCPC, and LSLGA. The Lagos State Lotteries and Gaming Authority (LSLGA), represented by the Senior Legal Officer, Kemi Adebiyi, endorsed the promotion and also assured Nigerians that the Pure Bliss promo adheres strictly to regulatory requirements.

She lauded the organization for its transparency in selecting the winners and advised many more persons to key into the promo with confidence. “We appreciate the company for introducing this reward scheme to acknowledge and appreciate consumers and urge our consumers to participate in the promo,” Mrs Adebiyi stated.

Ms Susie Onwuka, the Head of the Lagos Office at the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC), was also present at the cheque presentation; she lauded Ok Foods, the producer of Pure Bliss, for coming out with such a lofty initiative.

Speaking during the Cash Prize Presentation, Ms Bukola Yusuph, Brand Manager Pure Bliss, emphasized Pure Bliss’ commitment to delight consumers through delicious and quality products and rewards.

“It is all in the brand name. Running the biggest promo within the biscuits industry, where consumers get instant airtime rewards and millions in cash prizes, is in line with our brand promise and commitment to bliss and mood upliftment. We have 56 Millionaires left to reward and thank consumers who have participated. We encourage others to keep participating as we  plan to reward a total of 60 consumers with one million naira each and also give out 30 Million Naira worth of Airtime.”

Reiterating the mechanics of participating in the Promo, Ms Yusuph stated that consumers are to buy any Millionaire Promo pack of Pure Bliss Cookies or Wafers, look inside the pack for a 7-digit unique code and text the unique code to 8011 using the format: PUREBLISS <SPACE> 1234567 <SPACE> LOCATION, e.g. PUREBLISS 1234567 LAGOS. The consumers will receive an SMS from 8011, notifying them of their prize – either N100 Airtime or One Million Naira, as each code guarantees a prize. She emphasized that it works for all networks.

Officials of the Lagos State Lotteries and Gaming Authority (LSLGA), Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC), and National Lottery Regulatory Commission (NLRC) all expressed their confidence in the credibility of the promotion and urged consumers to participate while also reiterating their commitment to monitoring the promotion for transparency.

MoMo Gives Iraboko Lagos Residents Financial Grant, POS Devices

Y’ello Box digital centre Iraboko

By Modupe Gbadeyanka

At least two residents of the Iraboko area of Lagos State were recently given a N100,000 grant each by the mobile money arm of MTN Nigeria, MoMo Payment Service Bank (PSB).

The beneficiaries, Mr Ibrahim Abdulrazaq and Ms Sobanke Rasheedat, were also each given a POS device to launch their own businesses at the commissioning of a new Y’ello Box digital centre in Awoyaya.

“I’m so happy that I’m among the people they picked. I really appreciate it. This MoMo account means a lot to me,” Ms Sobanke enthused.

“I would like to use the money to upgrade my business because I’m a business owner. I sell bags. And my mom sells flowers,” she added.

The digital centre cited in the community is to equip the local population, particularly women, with the necessary digital financial skills to navigate the modern economy and secure their families’ futures.

The Central Bank of Nigeria recently stated that there is still an over 20 per cent gap left to meet its National Financial Inclusion Strategy (NFIS) target of 95 per cent overall financial inclusion (this was originally set for the end of 2024).

Currently, 74 per cent of Nigerians are financially included, as of the first half of 2025. This presents an opportunity that MoMo PSB intends to step in to fill.

“Our initiative is centred on financial inclusion – ensuring that the economic value generated within this ecosystem remains in the community to fuel sustainable local growth,” the acting Chief Commercial Officer of MoMo PSB, Mr Victor Onyebuchi, stated.

The activation was an immersive experience led by the MoMo team, under the guidance of the company’s Chief Compliance Officer, Ms Deborah Odo-Effimi. Residents were taught how to use MoMo for secure transactions, SIM registrations, and business management.

To encourage the adoption of digital banking, MoMo rewarded active participants with prizes. Residents walked away with solar-powered fans to combat the heat, umbrellas for the rainy season, and branded caps and wristbands.

Migo Gift Card

The Migo – Sell Gift Cards app is redefining how Nigerians and Ghanaians convert unused gift cards into instant cash — with the best exchange rates, bank-level security, and payments delivered in minutes.

Migo, a leading fintech platform in West Africa, today announced a major expansion of its gift card trading services, positioning itself as the definitive solution for Nigerians and Ghanaians seeking to sell gift cards for cash at the best available market rates. The platform now supports over 50 gift card brands — including Apple Gift Card, Amazon Gift Card, Go2Bank Gift Card, Google Play Gift Card, Visa Gift Card, Steam Wallet, and many more — with instant payment directly to Nigerian bank accounts and Ghanaian mobile money wallets.

West Africa’s Gift Card Market Is Booming — and Underserved

Gift cards have become one of the most widely circulated financial instruments in Nigeria and Ghana. Driven by growing diaspora remittances, the rise of remote work, international e-commerce, and corporate reward programmes, millions of dollars worth of gift cards flow into West Africa every year.

Apple Gift Cards, Amazon Gift Cards, Google Play Gift Cards, iTunes Gift Cards, Steam Wallet Gift Cards, eBay Gift Cards, Vanilla Visa Gift Cards, American Express Gift Cards, Sephora Gift Cards, Go2Bank Gift Cards, and Razer Gold Gift Cards are among the most commonly received cards in the region. Yet the vast majority of these cards cannot be used for everyday purchases in Nigeria or Ghana — they are locked to US or UK retail ecosystems.

Millions of naira in gift card value go unused every month across Nigeria and Ghana because recipients do not know where to sell safely.

Until recently, those looking to convert gift cards to cash had few good options. Social media groups on WhatsApp, Telegram, and Facebook Marketplace were riddled with fraudsters. Unregulated local dealers offered unpredictable rates and slow payment. The market urgently needed a trustworthy, technology-driven platform.

Migo was built to fill exactly that gap.

Migo – Sell Gift Cards: Built for Nigeria. Built for Ghana. Built for Speed.

Migo – Sell Gift Cards is a mobile-first fintech application that enables users across Nigeria and Ghana to sell gift cards instantly, securely, and at the best exchange rates. Available on Android and iOS — and free to download — Migo has rapidly grown into one of the most trusted gift card exchange platforms in West Africa.

The platform was designed with a single mission: to eliminate the friction, fear, and financial loss that has historically defined gift card trading in West Africa. With Migo, the process of converting an Apple Gift Card to Naira, exchanging a Visa Gift Card for Cedis, or cashing out a Steam Wallet Gift Card takes minutes, not days.

Truecaller Users Crosses 500 million mark, Eyes One Billion

By Modupe Gbadeyanka

The leading global platform for safe and trusted communication, Truecaller, has crossed the 500 million mark, with 150 million users outside of India and over 50 million users added in 2025.

The achievement underscores how trust has become one of the most essential layers in digital communication today, as demand for protection against spam, scam and unwanted communication continues to grow globally.

The platform also crossed 4 million paying subscribers globally earlier in the year, further strengthening one of its key revenue streams.

With half a billion people using the platform every month, Truecaller has evolved beyond just Caller ID. It has become an essential part of how communication works safely in the digital age; a daily-use trust layer that helps people verify identities, avoid fraud, and make informed decisions about who they interact with.

Today, Truecaller operates as a global digital utility platform, embedded into everyday communication habits for hundreds of millions of people. From identifying unknown callers to preventing fraud and enabling safer messaging, the platform has become a habitual, daily-use service that supports safer interactions across the phone ecosystem.

Despite serving more than half a billion users globally, the company remains relatively lean, with a team of approximately 470 employees building and operating the platform for users around the world.

“This is an important milestone for us, but it also says something bigger about the world we live in. More and more people need help navigating spam, scams, and unwanted communication every day.

“Reaching 500 million users shows the scale of that need, and the trust people place in Truecaller to help make communication safer,” the chief executive of Truecaller, Mr Rishit Jhunjhunwala, commented.

“Our commitment remains focused on continuously strengthening Truecaller with smarter technology and new capabilities that protect users before, during, and after every call or message.

“Ultimately, we aim to build a safer, more trusted communication ecosystem for everyone. We now have our sights set on the next milestone, one billion users,” he added.
