Barclays promotes digital banking

Through the Swipe-and-Win promotion, in which the bank gives away a variety of prizes to customers that would have swiped their cards for payments, Barclays says it has paid out P182, 440 in cash prizes since November last year.

Announcing winners for the first phase of the competition in Gaborone on Friday, Barclay's Consumer Director Peo Motshegare said the objective of the competition was to encourage customers to use their cards for all transactions. "We want to encourage customers to use their cards because they are convenient payment tools as compared to cash," she said.
