United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc has rewarded thousands of customers with more than ₦400 million through its anniversary bonus programme. The payout, made under the UBA Bumper Account, reinforces the bank’s commitment to rewarding loyal customers while encouraging a stronger savings culture across Nigeria.
Anniversary bonus rewards loyal UBA customers
The latest disbursement is one of the largest loyalty rewards recorded since the UBA Bumper Account was introduced. Qualifying customers received their anniversary bonuses directly into their accounts. Therefore, the initiative demonstrates UBA’s continued focus on delivering value to customers who maintain consistent savings.
The UBA Bumper Account is designed to reward customers for saving regularly. Every year an eligible account reaches its anniversary, the customer receives a cash bonus. As a result, disciplined saving becomes more rewarding while helping customers build long-term financial stability.
Speaking on the anniversary bonus, UBA’s Head of Retail Products, Tomiwa Sotiloye, said the bank remains committed to recognising customer loyalty through meaningful rewards.
“At UBA, we believe customer loyalty deserves meaningful recognition. Every bonus paid is our way of saying ‘thank you’ to customers who continue to trust us with their financial aspirations. Surpassing the ₦400 million milestone reflects our commitment to creating products that not only help customers save but also reward them in tangible ways. It is another demonstration that when our customers grow, we grow with them.”
Meanwhile, Sotiloye encouraged both new and existing customers to take advantage of the savings product. He explained that customers can open a UBA Bumper Account through any UBA branch, the UBA Mobile Banking App, by dialling *919#, or online. In addition, eligible customers will position themselves to qualify for future anniversary bonus rewards.
UBA’s Group Head of Brands, Marketing and Corporate Communications, Alero Ladipo, also highlighted the bank’s customer-focused strategy. According to her, the Bumper Account reflects UBA’s commitment to rewarding responsible financial behaviour while providing real value to customers.
“The UBA Bumper Account reflects our unwavering commitment to putting customers first. We deliberately design products that reward responsible financial behaviour while delivering real value. Crediting over ₦400 million directly into customers’ accounts is not just a payout; it is evidence of our promise to make banking more rewarding and to continually appreciate the confidence our customers repose in us.”
The UBA Bumper Account remains one of the bank’s flagship retail savings products. It combines competitive savings benefits with digital banking convenience and attractive loyalty rewards. Furthermore, the product aligns with UBA’s broader strategy of promoting financial inclusion through sustainable savings habits.
UBA continues to expand its footprint as Africa’s Global Bank, serving more than 45 million customers across 20 African countries. The bank also operates in the United Kingdom, the United States, France and the United Arab Emirates. Through innovative banking solutions, UBA aims to deepen financial inclusion while improving customer experiences.
The latest anniversary bonus payout underscores UBA’s commitment to rewarding customers who save consistently. As competition intensifies within the banking sector, initiatives such as the UBA Bumper Account continue to strengthen customer loyalty while encouraging sound financial habits. For customers seeking a savings account that offers more than interest alone, the anniversary bonus provides an additional incentive to remain committed to long-term saving.
