Wema Bank Celebrates Nigeria’s 64th Independence Day with Cash Prizes for Customers

Wema Bank, a leader in innovative banking solutions and the pioneer of Africa’s first fully digital bank, ALAT, is gearing up to launch the fourth season of its popular reward initiative, the Wema Bank 5 for 5 Promo, with a special Independence Day draw aimed at rewarding 64 Nigerians with cash prizes.

The live draw will take place on Tuesday, October 1, 2024, as part of Nigeria’s 64th Independence Day celebrations.

“This is our way of giving back to the community as we celebrate our nation’s independence,” said the bank’s spokesperson. “We are excited to reward our customers while also encouraging them to engage with our digital platforms’, the bank said in a statement.

The Wema Bank 5 for 5 Promo Season 4 promises a total prize pool of N135,000,000, marking it as the biggest season yet. In a departure from previous editions, the Independence Day special live draw will see 64 customers awarded N5,000 each, compared to the usual ten winners in daily draws.

“To qualify for this special draw, customers simply need to perform a minimum of one transaction using the ALAT app, *945#, or their Wema/ALAT debit card,” the spokesperson explained. “Whether it’s purchasing airtime, making inter-bank transfers, or paying bills, every transaction counts towards eligibility for the draw.”

The promotional initiative will include daily, weekly, and monthly draws, culminating in a grand prize of N5,000,000. “We believe this initiative will be a game changer for our customers, providing them with both rewards and motivation to leverage our digital banking services,” the spokesperson added.

The Independence Day live draw will be broadcasted on Wema Bank’s YouTube and Instagram channels, allowing customers and the public to participate virtually.

“We invite all Nigerians to join us in this celebration, fund their Wema/ALAT accounts, and transact using our platforms for a chance to win,” the spokesperson concluded.

With the Wema Bank 5 for 5 Promo Season 4, the bank aims not only to reward its customers but also to reinforce its commitment to enhancing financial inclusion across Nigeria.
