According to the statement, updates from branches of Polaris Bank across Nigeria indicated an overwhelming participation in the promo by Nigerians, consisting of existing and prospective customers of the bank, who were desirous to emerge winners and make 2021 a memorable year.
It said, “Polaris Bank commenced the nationwide ‘Save & Win’ promo campaign last November to reward and empower its loyal and prospective customers by giving away N26m with winners picked through a transparent electronically generated process that will be supervised by regulatory institutions.
“The bank seeks to raise eight millionaires who will receive N1m each while 180 lucky customers will be rewarded with other cash gifts of N100,000 each.”
According to the bank, the promo is aimed at making millionaires of everyday Nigerians by encouraging current and prospective customers to save minimum incremental of N10,000 monthly for any three consecutive months within the promo period, starting from November 2020 to April 2021, to qualify and be part of the winners of the promo.
