NetOne Zimbabwe has introduced an electronic airtime top-up service premised at increasing customer convenience by buying and distributing airtime virtually.
The development was announced by a senior NetOne executive, Ms Elmah Dube, in her speech during a stakeholder cocktail event hosted by the company in Bulawayo last Friday. Dube said:
In line with technological advancement, NetOne recently introduced the electronic top-up service (E-Top Up). Many of you here have already embraced this service and are enjoying great convenience and benefits in the distribution of airtime.
E-Top Up as it is known, is an electronic airtime distribution service that allows you our stakeholders to buy and distribute airtime virtually.
There is no need for physical presence when you buy and distribute airtime.
NetOne has largely gone paperless. This brings about great convenience as airtime can now be moved 24/7 thus greatly reducing stock outs.
We also ensured there are no charges when sending float (airtime) to other dealers or vendors or on a vendor to vendor transfers. What is sent is what is received and sold.
The service is introduced when the country is still grappling with the coronavirus pandemic which seems to have gained momentum lately.
Dube added that NetOne also introduced a discount of 11 percent with a minimum order quantity valued at only ZWL$1,000 saying this “clearly shows that this service is for everyone.”
NetOne has also launched its “GigaThanks Promotion”, which will run until February 2021.
