Nigeria’s Diamond Bank Plc has announced that its mobile app has crossed the one million downloads mark. The bank said the one millionth customer who downloaded and registered the Diamond Mobile app did it on Valentine’s Day. The savings account linked to the app is domiciled at the bank’s Okumagba Avenue branch in Warri, Delta State.
The bank said it rewarded 28 lucky customers for downloading, registering and using the Diamond mobile app last December. The customers received gifts including iPhone 6, Apple watch, a year cable TV subscription, internet data subscription and cash. The winners were selected via an online electronic draw.
Speaking on the increasing popularity of electronic banking channels in Nigeria, CEO of the company, Uzoma Dozie, said Diamond mobile app “sweetest app on the planet”, and it offers more than just banking services.
