The Cuban telecommunications monopoly, ETECSA, has just launched an award consisting of 5 CUC recharges to the 500 users in the country that have carried out the largest number of financial operations through the Transfermóvil application during 2019.
This was announced on Friday from the institutional profile of Cubacel on the social network Twitter, where the details of the reward were explained, which the company identified as “Top 500 Award”.
The Transfermobile platform, owned by ETECSA, is the only existing application on the island to make payments of tax obligations and services of aqueduct-sewage, electricity and telephony, as well as financial transfers, recharges to cell phones, balance inquiries, update of bank accounts and other transactions From a mobile phone.
It is necessary that the personal line be linked to a bank account and a magnetic card that has been issued by the Popular Savings Bank (BPA), the Bank of Credit and Commerce (BANDEC) or the Metropolitan Bank.
Even though the Transfermóvil application has reached a certain popularity among Cubans who meet those conditions, the service activation process has been cataloged as tiring by not a few users.
According to the Cuban government, the development of electronic commerce is one of its priorities in the country, since it is far from the reality it describes in other nations of the world, even poorer and underdeveloped than Cuba.
ETECSA announces sporadically some rewards in order to encourage the use of electronic media and cellular telephony in Cuban society, but contradictorily the costs of its services are not available to most salaries.
Last December he gave away a Alcatel 3X mobile phone, of which 156 CUC are sold in its commercial units, to 6 million user of cell phone in the country.
While the estimated annual revenues of the Cuban telecommunications monopoly are accounted for in millions of dollars, the Top 500 Prize will have an estimated total amount of 2,500 CUC, as the 500 users who have most used Transfermóvil will be recharged from 5 CUC in 2019.
