Overview
Agent banking is simply third party banking. This is where our customers are able to carry out bank transactions at any of our contracted CenteAgents. Agents are selected and appraised by the Centenary Bank and then approved by Bank of Uganda. Upon approval, the Bank signs contracts with the agents, train them and brand their premises prior to carrying transactions.
A CenteAgent can either be a sole proprietorships, Partnerships, Limited liability companies, Cooperative Societies, Microfinance Institutions or any other entity which the Central Bank may deem fit.
