The promotion, ‘‘Be Your Own Bank–Transact & Win Transact & Win’, aims to empower customers to be their own bank managers by allowing them conduct Current Account transactions virtually from their phone or computer using Standard Bank’s Internet Banking platform.

Our customers can be their own bank managers at the touch of a button on their smart phone or computer by using our Internet Banking system.”
There is a grand prize of K1 million and K500,000 for the runner-up. The third-placed winner will walk home with a DSTV Explorer plus a month’s Premium subscription.

Chirwa said to stand a chance of winning existing Current Account customers need to register for Internet Banking while potential ones should open a Current Account complete with the Internet Banking service option. The customers must ensure to transact a minimum of four times every two weeks, and the more transactions one conducts, the higher their chances of winning.
“We are giving our customers an incentive to embrace digital banking, which does not require them to physically visit the bank. Internet banking is smart, efficient and convenient. Customers on Internet banking face no physical or distance barriers–they can transact any time and from anywhere, 24/7,” he said.
