The Wendi Ku Win campaign offers customers weekly chances to win prizes for digital transactions over sh10,000.

Pearl Bank launched its Wendi mobile wallet campaign, "Wendi Ku Win," on November 6, 2026, at Old Taxi Park in Kampala. The campaign aims to encourage digital financial transactions by rewarding customers who make weekly transactions exceeding sh10,000 via the Wendi mobile wallet.

Andrew Kabeera, Executive Director at Pearl Bank, stated that the campaign demonstrates Wendi's commitment to empowering customers financially and ushering more Ugandans into the digital money economy.

Customers making transactions over UGX. 10,000 can win fuel vouchers, smartphones, household appliances, and cash rewards up to UGX.100,000. This initiative aligns with the National Financial Literacy Strategy for 2023-2028, aiming to promote economic growth through accessible financial services.
