Airtel Upgrades App With Shopping Experience

Airtel Nigeria has upgraded its My Airtel App with a fully integrated eShop feature, transforming the platform into a complete digital shopping destination. 

According to a statement, this update would allow customers to enjoy a full retail experience directly within the existing subscriber app beyond simply buying airtime or data.

“The eShop feature offers a wide selection of products ranging from Airtel-branded items such as Home Broadband (HBB) devices and everyday retail items such as electronics, home appliances, fashion, and beauty products,” the statement reads.

Speaking on the new feature, the telecommunications firm’s Director of Marketing, Ismail Adeshina, emphasized the brand’s ongoing focus on innovation and customer-centricity.

“At Airtel, we understand that today’s customers value convenience above all else. This update is part of our broader mission to simplify digital experiences and make everyday transactions easier and faster. 

“By integrating the eShop directly into the My Airtel App, we’re eliminating unnecessary steps and giving users the freedom to do more within a single platform,” the statement reads.

The statement stressed that the update would enhance the app’s functionality by allowing customers to access the eShop directly from the home screen, eliminating the need for external redirection to web browsers or third-party platforms.

“We’re moving beyond basic connectivity towards building a digital ecosystem that supports the lifestyle needs of our customers. Whether it’s purchasing a device, recharging, or shopping for everyday items, we’re putting more power and choice in the hands of our users,” the statement added.
