Safaricom and e-commerce leader Jumia have partnered to reward customers shopping on Jumia with a five per cent discount through the month of November. Customers will automatically have the five per cent discount applied to their total shopping value once they choose M-Pesa as a payment option on both Jumia and Jumia Food. “ We are excited to partner with Jumia to reward online shoppers across the country for paying with M-Pesa, even as we continue to celebrate our 20th Anniversary,” Safaricom CEO Peter Ndegwa, Chief Executive Officer, Safaricom. The move comes as more customers and businesses have rushed to embrace online shopping on the back of the Covid-19 pandemic. Jumia has emerged as the leading online shopping destination in the country hosting more than 10,000 businesses and attracting millions of shoppers every month.
