It has been ten years since MTN launched Mobile Money in Eswatini on May 2, 2011. As this flagship product turns ten years, MTN will be giving away lots of exciting prizes through various promotions in celebration.

On Wednesday, MTN will make the big reveal during the official launch of the 10th MTN MoMo anniversary by the country’s leading Mobile Financial Services. 

MTN Corporate Affairs Manager Mandla Luphondvo said the MTN MoMo 10th anniversary is a time for the company to reflect on the past decade and celebrate the success in the past ten years, driving financial inclusion, especially for the unbanked population in Eswatini. 

Expectations are very high ahead of the MTN MoMo 10th anniversary launch by the company that has become synonymous with changing people’s lives. During MTN’s 20th anniversary in 2018, the company gave two brand new Ford Everest cars worth over E500 000 each, to two lucky customers, amongst other promotions. 

Luphondvo encouraged the public to follow MTN MoMo 10th Anniversary launch on its social media pages to learn what is in it for them in this campaign.

“We have unique promotions for each of our key stakeholders – customers, merchants and vendors. On Wednesday, MTN will unpack all the exciting details. We invite the public to join the big reveal tomorrow on our social media platforms,” he said. 

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, MTN will be giving back to its partners and customers to brighten their lives. 

Luphondvo commended the government and MTN MoMo partners for supporting the service since its inception.

“We further invite those that have not yet registered to use the service to do so and make sure that they do not miss out on the giveaways,” he said.

At ten years since its inception, MTN MoMo has grown into MTN’s flagship product, circulates about E1.1billion per month on all transactions, and has over 700 000 registered MoMo users. While MTN MoMo has grown massively, MTN still over 3 500 new subscribers each month. On a regional space, Eswatini’s MTN MoMo is the fifth-biggest player across 23 MTN Operations.
