Stanbic Bank launches its ‘Kya Double with Supa Dupa’ campaign, a new banking innovation set to redefine how its customers access and engage with financial services. Combining digital convenience, instant rewards, and seamless solutions, the campaign underscores the bank’s commitment to making banking faster, easier, and more rewarding for all.

Speaking at the launch, Israel Arinaitwe, the Head of Personal Banking at Stanbic Bank, said Kya Double with Supa Dupa is a direct result of analysing extensive customer feedback. “Listening carefully through social media, feedback sessions, and personal engagements, the bank has developed features that align with modern banking needs. This includes speed, simplicity, and tangible rewards to those who will be depositing on their accounts regularly,” he said.

Customers can now open a fully operational Stanbic Bank account digitally in a completely paperless process, free of charge.

Sonia Karamagi, the Head of Customer Experience, said in a bid to show appreciation for customer loyalty, the Kya double with Supa Dupa campaign will also see active customers benefit from a range of rewards at the end of every month. “Every transaction, be it savings, deposits, or bill payments, earns customers entries into weekly draws,” she said. “Participants, whether new or existing, are eligible to win double their deposit amounts directly into their accounts. This is banking that pays you back instantly.”

At the same event, Stanbic also unveiled the Pomoja Account portfolio. This fully digital solution enables the owner or sole proprietor of a small business to open and access exclusive banking services at no cost. Mr. Aaron Akampa, Head of Enterprise Banking at Stanbic Bank, said the decision was informed by customer feedback and numerous government reports, which indicate the majority of local businesses fall in this category. “Not only do small business owners struggle with formalization, but they also lack a good credit profile to enable them to qualify for loans,” he said.

Akampa said the Pamoja account aims to serve small businesses mainly found in Kampala’s downtown area and other regions, eliminating the need to find a business partner to meet banking requirements.

Our Pamoja account offers unique benefits tailored for this segment. It’s free to open, with an average balance requirement of just UGX2 million, meaning no charges whatsoever. In addition, account holders can borrow up to UGX200 million, opening new horizons for growth. It’s entirely digital, providing a seamless experience for small businesses to operate more professionally and efficiently.

Karamagi encouraged Ugandans to take advantage of the Kya Double with Supa Dupa campaign.
