Africa's leading payment technology and card business, Verve, has announced a partnership with Skit Store, Nigeria’s foremost one-stop-shop for school supplies, to give a 10% discount on all school necessity purchases, running till October 15, 2021.
The offer covers new and existing Verve cardholders
that shop physically in Skit store or online on skit.ng. Verve cardholders that
shop on skit.ng will also get free delivery of their purchases worth N20,000
and above. Beyond school supplies, the offer also covers office and lifestyle
supplies.
Cherry Eromosele, Group Chief Marketing and
Communications Officer, Interswitch Group, said the partnership was
specifically targeted at the time when parents and students are preparing to
return to school, with the view to easing the hassles that come with shopping
for back-to-school supplies.
She pointed out that parents do not have the luxury
of time to visit different stores to purchase different school supplies, this
is why, Verve deliberately partnered with Skit Store, a one-stop-shop for
school supplies where they can get all theirs needs in one shop. On top of
that, parents will get a 10% discount and free delivery, when they shop with
Verve card in any Skit store in Nigeria and on the skit.ng web platform.
She said: “At this time when children are returning
to school after the holidays, Verve has taken it upon itself to provide relief
and ease the burden for parents, in order to expedite the process of procuring
back-to-school supplies for their children and wards.
“We understand the challenges and inconvenience
that parents go through just to shop for school supplies for their wards, this
is why, we are exploiting this partnership with Skit Store to provide an
invaluable experience to new and existing Verve cardholders to enable them shop
seamlessly and conveniently at a discounted rate,” she stated.
Vincent Ogbunude, Divisional Head of Verve, said
that the partnership with Skit Store reiterates Verve’s goal of remaining a
customer-centric brand. He said Verve remains committed to ensuring that its
customers get seamless access to quality services.
Ogbunude said: "Our customers remain at the
forefront of what we do. Our partnership with Skit Store is one of the ways we
prove to them this fact, among the many ways we display our unwavering
dedication to providing them an easy life."
Speaking in the same vein, owners of Skit Store expressed
their excitement on the partnership with Verve. They informed that existing and
potential Verve cardholders can take advantage of invaluable offerings from
Verve while shopping for school, office and lifestyle supplies at Skit.ng.
Seunfunmi Ogunjimi, General Manager, Commercials at

with Verve will showcase Skit Store as a Nigerian brand committed to global
customer service standards. In her words, the Skit Brand is associated with
quality service delivery and innovativeness in providing solution to everyday sourcing problems.
