Is it possible to pay people for a few minutes of their undivided attention, rather than trying to compete for their attention via more expensive means such as billboards, TV ads, and radio? The answer is Yes. Bongo Live has made it possible to give customers rewards and incentives to customers to get their attention. Instead of investing in expensive traditional media or labor-intensive marketing, enterprises can transfer airtime directly to their target audience as a reward or incentive. Globally, billions of people own or have access to a mobile phone. People purchase top-ups not only for themselves but for their loved ones and friends too and for the majority of these people, the mobile phone is their major means of communication from entertainment to paying bills. This makes airtime a very powerful reward currency. One of the things that keep all the activities on mobile phones going is Airtime and it’s not surprising that users value enterprises that reward them with airtime more.
