Owing to the resounding success and overwhelming customer response it has had in the previous years, Amãna Bank has once again introduced its highly rewarding Children’s Savings Grow Your Balance Gift Fiesta for the year 2020. The promotion which will run through 1 January to 31 December is held under the theme ‘Grow it as they grow’, where attractive gifts will be rewarded based on new funds deposited to the account during the promotion period.
Amãna Bank Children’s Savings Account gifts promotion has been a significant promotion in the market for the past several years. This promotion provides not only higher returns but also rewards children at progressive milestones for accumulating their savings during the promotion period. While this contributes to building a savings habit amongst the children, it also provides the parents an opportunity to build a fund for their children that would be available when the child is 18 years old.
Children who grow their accounts by Rs. 5,000, Rs. 15,000, Rs. 40,000 or Rs. 75,000 will have over nine exciting gift options to choose from, with a single child having the opportunity to walk away with four different gift items in total. In order to obtain the gifts there should be an active standing order in place to the children’s savings account. The gifts include Home Gardening Kit, Archery Set, Kids’ Basket Ball with Ring, Golf Set, Kid’s Microscope, Kitchen Play Set, Art Easel, Foldable Table and Engineering Tool Kit. Further, the Bank is also availing special gift items such as bikes, book vouchers, tabs, hoover board and watches for one-off deposits of Rs. 250,000 and above.
Commenting on the promotion the Bank’s Head of Deposit Mobilisation Arshad Jamaldeen said, “Amãna Bank has always been in the forefront of fostering the habit of savings among children, especially through our Grow Your Balance Children’s Savings proposition. The gift items on offer will not only be enjoyable but also educational as it encourages skill development. Through this promotion Amana Bank will provide parents a great way to save towards the future of their children.
