This morning 3 lucky Airtel subscribers walked away with huge sums of money as part of the on-going Mega Masappe promotion. Boaz Owomugisha from Mbarara, Vincent Wamirevu from Kyenjojo and Tadeo Lulika from kakiri were each handed Ugshs 1Million by the Airtel Uganda IT Director, Mr. James Museba.

As part of the draw, Yusuf Tomko Kajombi, Elasu Benard and Musoba Ibrahim took home brand new motorcycles and Rukumbwaho Nicholas a resident from Old Kampala drove away with a grand prize of a brand new car – the ninth car to be given away in the Mega Masappe promotion.

Handing over the prizes Airtel IT Director, James Museba, congratulated the winners and thanked them for taking part in the promotion, saying the promotion was introduced for the purpose of rewarding Airtel Uganda subscribers.

James Museba, the Airtel Uganda IT Director, highlighted that so far, 9 new cars, Ugsh 40Million and 40 motorbikes have given out in this promotion and we are already seeing subscribers bettering their lives in different ways thanks to these prizes.

I urge everyone subscribed to Airtel to dial *162# and take part in the promotion,” he concluded.

Launched at the start of the July, the 90-day recharge promotion requires subscribers to opt into it by dialing *162# and selecting option 1 to opt in, option 2 to check target and option 3 to redeem their data bonus – which will be broken down into Voice, SMS and Data at 50%, 10% and 40% respectively. This bonus however does not apply to social packs, quarterly, annual and free bundles.

Mega Masappe promotion subscriber bonus will be given instantly on the achievement of the daily target. For example, if a subscriber’s bonus target is Ushs. 2,000 and they recharge with that Ushs. ,000, they will receive 100% bonus of the same value under the Voice, SMS & Data split. However, if they recharge with another Ushs. 1,000 on the same day, they will not get a 2nd bonus.

Daily and weekly prizes will be given away every Friday for the entire duration of the promotion.
