Boda boda riders appreciate Parliament for support

Parliament of Uganda

Bodaboda operators have thanked Speaker Rebecca Kadaga and Members of Parliament for advocating for their return to business in the Covid-19 situation. The bodaboda operators say transporting passengers is their primary source of income which had been banned for the past four months.

The Bodaboda operators met the Speaker on Tuesday, 28 July 2020 and commended her for always campaigning for the growth and progress of their livelihoods.

“We met with you in June and requested you to lobby for us to get back on the road. We have come to say thank you for living up to your promise,” said Bosco Buziba, the chairperson of the Kiira Municipality Bodaboda Association.

Buziba said that some of the new regulations for their operations are hard and were also seeking the support of Parliament to ease on these.
Musa Mutebi, a member of the association cited the new directive by Kampala Capital City Council (KCCA) to establish a Bodaboda free zone that limits operators from accessing some parts of the city.

“The Kampala City centre is where we benefit the most in terms of transporting passengers but they have barred us from accessing these routes, which is affecting our business,” Mutebi said.

Speaker Kadaga commended the Bodaboda operators for their expression of gratitude and asked them to follow the current guidelines in place to enable their business progress efficiently.

“We shall look into the Bodaboda free zone and see how to address it. Bodabodas are used by most of the public and if they are restricted from accessing certain areas where there is no public transport, our people will be inconvenienced,” said Kadaga.

KCCA has now come out and granted the operators a one month grace period before the implementation of the free zone. This is to allow the authority designate stages and also allow the operators to register at their areas of operation.

Airtel Money, Game Stores launch Airtel Money Pay to ease payment for customers

Airtel Uganda has launched a partnership with Game Stores that will see Airtel Money subscribers pay for their purchases using Airtel Money Pay.

Airtel Money Pay is a service that enables Airtel Money subscribers to pay for goods and services using Airtel Money instead of exchanging cash for such purchases. The service enables both parties to immediately confirm these proximity payments via text message (e-receipt) that is sent to both subscriber and seller of the goods/service.

Commenting about this partnership, Airtel Money Head Merchant Portfolio Mr. Godfrey Muhindo noted that this new partnership will bring the highest level of convenience to Airtel subscribers who shop at Game stores.

“This payment method is going to ease the lives of our subscribers. Customers no longer have to carry cash or withdraw money, then pay when they are shopping here at Game,” he noted.

Muhindo also noted that the Airtel Money Pay innovation is timely as it is giving Ugandans an alternative and safe payment method in light of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Speaking on behalf of Game Stores, Frederick Olwit, the Game Store Manager, welcomed Airtel Money Pay onboard and thanked Airtel Uganda for the partnership.

“Our clients can now transact conveniently and securely from their Airtel accounts and pay for their shopping without hassle,” he said.

“As merchants, once we receive the money on our Airtel account, we can use it to make other transactions like payments or transfer it to the bank.”

Mr William Kaye, the Managing Director of Universal Tracking Systems and a customer at Game Stores who has used the service confirms the effectiveness of the product.

“After shopping, I came to the till and made my payment via Airtel Money Pay. The till attendant immediately confirmed payment and in less than a minute, I was done. The service is indeed very fast and did not require me to pay an extra fee,” Mr Kaye said.

At the launch, a lucky draw was held for members of the media and three lucky journalists each received cash sent directly to their Airtel Money accounts to do shopping at the store.

To use Airtel Money Pay, Airtel subscribers use the *185*9# code to initiate payments to the merchant by dialing the said code, which prompts them to input the merchant number/ ID, Amount and eventually a PIN to complete a payment. The subscriber can also put in the other transaction reference details like invoice number or purpose of payment.

Alternatively, the merchant can also initiate a transaction on their SIM menu and the subscriber will only input their PIN to complete the payment process.

The service can also be accessed at: Javas, C&A pharmacy, Jumia, Fraine Supermarket, City Oil, First pharmacy, Viva hardware, Kafiika Feeds, Ugachick, The Alchemist among other outlets.
