“The app makes it easy for me to send money to a person and to a bank account. Immediately you place in someone’s name, it confirms and you don’t need to go through the long process. I also love the freebies you get when you spin the wheel,” said Racken Kobusingye, an Airtel Uganda customer and MyAirtel App user.
“I love using the Airtel App because it makes purchasing voice/data bundles easy for myself and purchasing for other people. I no longer have to remember so many USSD codes,” added Brian Balmoi, another satisfied customer.
“MyAirtel App serves as a prime example of how digital solutions can empower Ugandans and pave the way for a more convenient and interconnected future. The app’s focus on user experience, with features like data usage management and rewards, reflects Airtel Uganda’s commitment to innovation and responsible digital participation,” Odaka remarked.
