More than 300 excited customers of Access Bank have been presented with varied prizes across the country in the 1st month of the Bank's Save More Win more promo.

The promotion, which has been described by some as an industry first due to its branch level customer winnings, saw customers taking home cash prizes, flat-screen TVs, shopping vouchers, scholarships, DSTV decoders with free subscriptions, fuel coupons, airtime and many more amazing prizes.

Vimstar Limited in Tarkwa picked up a GHs 3,000 weekend-stay prize from the Tarkwa branch while Dennis Quansah walked away with a GHs 2,000 educational scholarship from the Sefwi branch.

Some customers numbering over 20 who won cash prizes include Duyong Yaw from the Amakom branch, Hassan Asani at the Tema Industrial Area branch, Garo Siwajian and Ato Ghartey at the Spintex and Osu Oxford Street branches respectively.

Five customers also took away a Flat screen TV while more than 100 other customers received exciting souvenirs across many of the Bank’s branches in the country. Over 80 more customers who reactivated their accounts with the Bank were also rewarded with free airtime as their wins in month one of the promotion.

Presenting some customers with their prizes at the Head Office, the Managing Director of Access Bank Ghana, Mr. Olumide Olatunji reiterated the Bank's preparedness to continue to develop lifestyle-based products and services that provide flexible options for all Ghanaians to save and invest no matter how small their income may be.

For him, this was a sure way of ensuring that everyone can fulfill their dream; a dream to “own” the future they want to see. And this they can achieve if the right support systems and incentives are in place.

The Divisional Head of Retail Banking, Mr. Stephen Abban indicated that the Save More Win More promotion was also a way of thanking customers for their loyalty over the past decade and to further deepen Access Bank’s financial inclusion drive by bringing the unbanked and underserved segments of the market into mainstream banking.

The promotion forms part of many exciting activities marking Access Bank’s 10th anniversary and customers were thrilled about the monthly wins as many of them indicated their eagerness to save more to win the ultimate cash prize at the end of the promo period. To win, customers simply must deposit a minimum of GHs 100 into their Access Bank account and could be one of the next winners.
