Little Cab To Refund 5% Every Time A Customer Pays Via M-Pesa

Little has announced a partnership Safaricom to promote contactless and cashless payment solutions for its customers.

This partnership aims to further strengthen Little ride commitment to provide safer and convenient rides for its consumers.

Commencing with this partnership, Little and Safaricom are providing a 5 percent cashback of the value of a trip’s cost for each ride when a consumer pays with M-PESA on Little platform.

The campaign aims to boost cashless and contactless payments with a strong purpose for Kenyans to adopt the new normal, especially during this COVID-19 pandemic.

On this occasion, Little Ride CEO, Kamal Budhabhatti said,

“There is a growing need for safer, convenient, and contactless means of transportation. And as a company, we are committed to forming more such strong and strategic partnerships with key stakeholders to ensure our consumers minimize any risks linked to the current pandemic. And unquestionably, this partnership will be the stepping stone towards that journey.

Safaricom said:

“The mobile phone has proven to be a safe and convenient payment method during the COVID-19 era. We are glad to partner with Little to encourage and empower customers and drivers to stay safe by making and receiving payments with Lipa Na M-PESA on the service,” said Peter Ndegwa, CEO, Safaricom.

The cashback promotion will run from 1^st August 2020 to 31^st October 2020 and will apply for all payments made through the M-PESA option on the Little app.

Customers using Little will need to select “M-PESA” as the payment option as they request their ride, in order to qualify for the cashback.

Once a customer completes their trip, they will receive a pop-up to acknowledge the M-PESA payment by inputting their PIN. The customer will then shortly receive an SMS crediting their Little Wallet with 5 percent of the amount paid.

Customers can view their awarded and unutilized cashback under the ‘Wallet’ option on their Little App. The cashback will automatically be applied to the next ride discounting the ride equivalent to the “Wallet” value.

As a company, Little ride emerged in 2016 to serve and solve the actual problem with its innovative technological commitment towards to consumers, and soon became the first Pan-African mobility platform that has grown its presence in 4 different countries with its strong commitment to serving both corporate and retail riders in the ride-hailing diaspora.
