Stanbic Bank has officially joined Kampala Restaurant Week 2025 as the official payment partner, bringing on board its innovative FlexiPay platform which offers, convenience, and exclusive rewards for one of the city’s most anticipated culinary events.
The partnership underscores the bank’s ongoing commitment to supporting local industries while offering seamless digital payment solutions that elevate customer experiences.
Speaking at the launch at Aldea Restaurant in Kololo, Salim Kitagenda, Head of Products at Stanbic Bank Uganda, underscored the vital role of food in driving economic growth and cultural unity.
“Ladies and gentlemen, one person said that ‘Indeed somebody cannot think well, neither can they sleep well or laugh well, if they have not dined well’. Food is very important to us as a people because it is a foundation of
happiness,” he said.
As part of its involvement in the festival, Stanbic Bank is spotlighting its FlexiPay platform a simple, fast, and secure way to make payments across all participating restaurants during the event.
Kitagenda emphasized the ease FlexiPay brings to dining experiences.
“For Stanbic, there is nothing much easier than just swiping your card and then you finish paying. And so, for this Kampala Restaurant Week, we are giving a 10% discount cash back for every time you swipe to actually pay,” he said.
He said the bank is committed to ensuring no one misses the opportunity to enjoy the event because of limited cash.
“FlexiPay, which is a very convenient solution from our side, has lending where you can actually just go and get a top-up,” Kitagenda said.
Stanbic Bank’s involvement in Kampala Restaurant Week reflects its broader vision not just as a financial leader, but as a community partner that believes in the power of shared experiences.
