Empowering Ugandan Education through MTN MoMo’s Pay School Fees and Win Campaign

16 September 2024

As digital solutions reshape financial transactions, MTN MoMo is transforming how Ugandan families handle school fee payments. Through partnerships with aggregators like School Pay, MTN MoMo provides a convenient, secure, and rewarding way for parents to pay fees. The Pay School Fees and Win campaign simplifies the payment process while offering opportunities to win scholarships and access financial assistance, significantly impacting education accessibility across Uganda.

Convenience and Safety Through Cashless Payments
Uganda’s digital economy transition is accelerated by MTN MoMo’s innovative approach. By collaborating with platforms like School Pay, MTN MoMo has created a seamless payments marketplace where parents can pay school fees from home, eliminating the need for large sums of cash or long bank queues.

Parents like Osuje Karim from Great Joy Primary School appreciate the flexibility. “I usually pay school fees at night.” he says. The 24/7 access allows parents to settle fees at their convenience, providing peace of mind. Parents can simply dial 16580# or use the MyMTN app, select an aggregator like School Pay, and complete transactions instantly.

Scholarships and Scholastic Rewards
Every payment made through MTN MoMo enters parents into a draw to win scholarships that cover a full term’s fees. This initiative lightens the financial burden on families and makes education more accessible. MTN MoMo also conducts regional activations across Uganda, offering participants the chance to win scholastic materials, further supporting children’s education, across the regions, in areas like Kabale and Arua.

For parents like Nerima, a refugee farmer who won second-term fees for her child through the campaign, the campaign has been life-changing. “I didn’t know we qualified to win such things and that’s how you know it’s real,” she says, highlighting that she did not expect to win in a country where she is considered a refugee.

Financial Flexibility with Microloans
In collaboration with banks, MTN MoMo also provides access to microloans, ensuring that parents facing financial challenges can still meet their children’s school fees. By dialling 165*5#, parents can quickly apply for a loan, with funds transferred directly to their MoMo wallet. This service ensures children remain in school even during tough financial times.

A New Era for School Fees Payments
Thanks to MTN MoMo’s partnerships with aggregators like School Pay, school fees payments in Uganda have been revolutionized. The need for cash and bank visits is becoming obsolete as families embrace the safety and convenience of cashless payments. Whether in Kampala or remote villages like Arua, MTN MoMo ensures that school fees payments are accessible, making education more attainable across the country.
