One of South Africa’s biggest retail stores, Game, has decided to show appreciation towards customers who are vaccinated.
According to Business Insider, the retailer now offers a 10% discount across all categories through its Vax Appreciation Wednesday campaign and the offer is valid until September 15.
“As a responsible retailer, Game is committed to creating a better life for all South Africans, and the health and safety of our team members and customers remains our top priority. We believe in the efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccination in keeping our stores safe and comfortable for our shoppers,” explains Katherine Madley, Vice President of Marketing, Game.

“The 10% discount we are offering to all customers who have been vaccinated is to say thank you for the role they are playing in keeping our stores and Mzansi safe.”
The discount is available to anyone who produces a vaccination card and ID or passport at till points across 118 Game stores, including citizens who have had their first and second dosage.
“We absolutely respect people’s freedom of choice to receive the Covid-19 vaccination, and by no means oblige our customers to share their vaccination status with us. However, we have seen firsthand the effect COVID has had on the consumer budget and lifestyle and aim to support South Africa and its people in the recovery from this. This is our way of thanking customers for making our stores safe,” said Madley.
Meanwhile, Wimpy announced in early August that an offer for free coffee for those vaccinated was available. Wimpy was the first South African brand to encourage people to get vaccinated in this manner.
