Nigeria's Independence Day

Here you'll find the Frequently Asked Questions and the official Terms & Conditions to help you understand how the promotion works
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1: What is the Independence Day campaign?

It is a special limited-time celebration for Pesa users sending money from Europe. Every time you send €50 or more to Nigeria, Ghana, or Kenya using Pesa, you are automatically entered into a giveaway to win a full grocery box for your family back home.

Q2: Is this a prize draw?

Yes. Winners will be chosen at random from all eligible transfers made during the promotional period.

Q3: Who can participate in this campaign?

Any verified Pesa customer living in eligible European Union countries whose account is active and in good standing.

Q4: What counts as an eligible transfer?

A transfer qualifies for an entry when you send at least €50 (excluding transaction fees) in a single transaction to Nigeria, Ghana, or Kenya.

Q5: Do I need to send exactly €50, or can I send more?

€50 is the minimum requirement. You can send more, and any single transfer of €50 or more will count as one valid entry.

Q6: Does sending to countries other than Nigeria, Ghana, or Kenya count?

No. This campaign strictly applies to transfers sent to Nigeria, Ghana, and Kenya. Transfers to other destinations will not be entered into the draw.

Q7: Can I enter more than once?

Yes! Every separate, completed transfer of €50 or more to Nigeria, Ghana, or Kenya during the campaign gives you another entry. The more qualifying transfers you make, the more entries you get.

Q8: Do I need to fill out a form to enter?

No. Every qualifying transfer automatically registers as an entry—no extra sign-up or form is needed.

Q9: When does the promotion end?

The promotion ends on October 1st. Any transfers made after this date will not be eligible for the draw.

Q10: How and when will I know if I’ve won?

Winners will be selected and contacted directly via email or phone within 7 days after the campaign ends, using the contact details linked to your Pesa account.

Q11: What is the prize, and can I exchange it for cash?

The prize is a physical grocery box delivered directly to your chosen recipient back home in Nigeria, Ghana, or Kenya. Prizes are non-transferable and cannot be exchanged for cash.

Q12: What happens if my transfer is canceled or refunded?

Canceled, failed, or refunded transfers will not count as entries. The transfer must be successfully delivered to your recipient.
