The biggest and fastest-growing
online shopping mall in Africa – Jumia, has collaborated with MTN Nigeria to
dole out a zero-data app called Jumia
zero-data app. This was done in a
bid to reducing data costs which, of course, is the greatest Goliath facing
mobile internet access in Nigeria.
In recognition of the above fact,
Jumia’s Zero Data app will offer, for free, a full access to online shopping on
the app provided it was run on a device using and MTN sim.
Commenting on this development,
the CEO of Jumia Africa, Mr. Martin Nicholas said, “we are proud of this new
partnership with MTN that will undoubtedly lead to an increasing value for our
customers. We believe that a better internet access and even more mobile will foster
economic development for both small businesses and Nigeria as a whole;
therefore, in order to provide the best
customer experience, it is time for jumia to make its services available for
more people anywhere at any given time.”
One can download the Jumia app free
of charge and enjoy zero data access charges while roaming about on the Jumia
online shop for various products; other sites like Kaymu and Jovago can be
accessed through this app.
So what are you waiting for? Download the Jumia app on
your phone using your MTN sim or send JUMAPP to 131 (SMS) to get the download
link.
