KAMPALA, Uganda — MTN MoMo has launched a new promotional campaign called Sambagala Full Time, offering consumers discounts of up to 88 percent on home essentials, electronics, and appliances.
The campaign runs on the company’s digital marketplace, Market by MoMo, which allows customers to purchase products online using mobile money and receive delivery at their doorstep.

Brian Mutungi, Country Lead for E-commerce for Market by MoMo at MTN Uganda, said the campaign is designed to meet the changing needs of customers who seek convenience, trust, and value.
“Through Market by MoMo, shoppers can access a wide variety of products, make secure payments using MTN MoMo and receive their purchases without the hassle of moving from store to store,” Mutungi said.
The promotion includes specific price reductions across several product categories. In the home entertainment section, a Smartec 55-inch Android Frameless TV has been reduced to 992,000 Ugandan shillings from 2 million shillings.
