It is evident that Covid-19 has hit the majority of us hard. Businesses have shut down and so many people have lost their jobs. The majority of us are going through a turbulent financial turmoil like never before. Is there hope of seeing the other end of the tunnel?

During this time, anything that gives you an opportunity to save money is a welcome move. They say saving is a culture that should be cultivated over time but sometimes to save just needs one to be smart and on top of the game.

Did you know if you are looking at saving some money, Bonga Points by Safaricom should be your first destination? How often have you redeemed your Bonga Points? In most cases, Kenyans redeem Bonga Points for airtime, free minutes, SMSs, and data bundles but have you ever thought of using them while purchasing a product or service?

When Covid-19 was ravaging the country, and when many families are struggling to survive, Safaricom rolled out Bonga for Good, allowing people to donate Bonga Points as well as purchase food and other stuff for those who could not afford. During that period, Kenyans redeemed more than 1 billion Bonga Points.

The partnership allows Jambojet customers to redeem their Bonga Points to purchase air tickets to any of its six local destinations namely Nairobi, Mombasa, Diani, Malindi, Kisumu, and Eldoret.

The products like Mobile phones especially Smartphones, Laptops, Smartwatches, power banks can be bought at Safaricom shops using half the price and half the Bonga points. For Instance, if the price of a phone is set at 10,000 shillings, you can pay 5000 shillings in cash and 5000 Bonga points and walk home with your gadget.

By leaving your Bonga Points unused, you are missing out on many amazing opportunities to cut on your costs and to save cash during your purchases. If you are looking for something to help you step into the next level, then try Bonga Points.
