Engie Energy Access Rwanda and Samsung have entered into a strategic partnership to launch a campaign that will see Rwandans own high quality Samsung smartphones at affordable prices and convenient payment plans.
The campaign, dubbed “Ni Umuti” was launched this September 6, 2024 in Kigali City and it comes as a way of contributing to the country’s ambition to ensure that Rwandans own a smartphone especially that the country has managed to increase internet coverage.
According to the fifth Rwanda population and housing Census – 2022 (RPHC 2022), the mobile phone penetration rate in Rwanda stands at 87.4% the report states however ownership of smartphones remains limited.
The “Ni Umuti” campaign was introduced to solve this challenge by enabling more Rwandans to acquire entry level and latest Samsung smartphones from 11 Engie Energy Access Rwanda’s Service Centers and over 300 agents located across the country.
Through this partnership, Samsung smartphones that will be available range from Samsung Galaxy A04, Samsung Galaxy A05, Samsung Galaxy A05s, Samsung Galaxy A15, Samsung Galaxy A35 5G, Samsung Galaxy A55 5G, Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus and Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra smartphones.
Unlike other smartphone payment plans, customers will have the convenience to make daily, weekly or monthly instalments and will have the possibility to purchase Samsung smartphones with affordable payment plans from as little as Rwf600 but also bundle the purchase of Engie Energy Access Rwanda’s solar systems with Samsung smartphones at an affordable cost.
