Bankit Microfinance Bank has announced the launch of its Bumper SME Grant Programme alongside an exciting nationwide rewards initiative that offers exclusive discounts and cashback opportunities for Bankit cardholders across partner outlets in Nigeria.
The initiative is part of the Bank’s commitment to supporting small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), promoting financial inclusion, encouraging digital payments, and rewarding customer loyalty in an increasingly digital economy.
Through the Bankit Business Account, entrepreneurs, startups, and SMEs will have the opportunity to access business growth grants, marketing support, promotional opportunities, and strategic visibility designed to help Nigerian businesses expand, attract more customers, and grow sustainably. Selected businesses will also benefit from digital marketing support, social media promotion, and co-branded campaigns aimed at increasing their market reach.
In addition, Bankit cardholders will enjoy exclusive discounts, cashback rewards, and special offers when they make payments using their Bankit Verve Debit Card at a growing network of partner merchants nationwide. The programme will cover leading filling stations, restaurants, supermarkets, logistics companies, retail outlets, lifestyle brands, and other businesses, with several strategic partnerships scheduled to be unveiled in the coming weeks.
The reward programme reinforces Bankit’s vision of delivering everyday value to customers beyond traditional banking by making every transaction more rewarding.
Speaking on the initiative, Kingsley Ezenwa, Head of Corporate Communications and Marketing at Bankit Microfinance Bank, said the Bank remains committed to building innovative financial solutions that empower Nigerians while creating tangible value for businesses and individuals.
“At Bankit, we believe banking should go beyond transactions. It should create opportunities for businesses to grow and reward customers for choosing digital payments. Our SME Grant Programme and Card Rewards Initiative are designed to help entrepreneurs scale their businesses while ensuring our customers enjoy meaningful savings and exclusive benefits every time they use their Bankit cards.”
He added that the Bank will continue to announce new merchant partnerships across major sectors of the economy, giving customers access to more discounts, cashback rewards, and exclusive lifestyle benefits throughout the year.
