MULTICHOICE Uganda, the lead agent for DStv, has introduced a scratch card system that allows clients pay their subscription fees through a short message service (SMS).
Richard Sebahiima, the sales and marketing manager, explained that the new system would enable the clients to pay their subscription fees without going through the appointed agents.
“It will also enable our clients to pay their subscription fees and get reconnected within five minutes,” Sebahiima explained. He was on Tuesday speaking during a public sensitisation workshop on the innovations and new products introduced by the firm for its clients.
