The Zamtel social media awards are aimed at appreciating Zambian content creators and social media influencers from different digital platforms at the same time enhancing the Zamtel brand associating it to be more youth centric and the most desirable brand.
The Zamtel Social Media Awards aim to reward and engage both content creators and customers through an interactive nomination and voting process.
Each nomination will cost K2 per category.
Customers participating in the nomination process will automatically enter a draw to win prizes such as iPhone 16 Pro Max, Fuel vouchers valued at K2,000 & Shopping vouchers valued at K2,500. Customers who win the weekly draws will be contacted on Hot FM radio every Wednesday & Friday.
The awards will officially launch on 5th March and will run for a total of four (4) months. The campaign timeline is as follows:
The awards are open to all social media content creators and influencers across various platforms. Participants must be active on at least one recognized social media platform (e.g., Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn). The selection of nominees will be determined by public nominations. Individuals can nominate their preferred content creators or influencers by following the official nomination process outlined on the designated platform. Self-nominations are also permitted, provided all necessary information is submitted accurately.
At the close of the nomination period, the five (5) individuals in each category who receive the highest number of nominations will advance to the voting stage. In the event of a tie for the fifth position, both nominees will be included, subject to the discretion of the organizing committee. Each award category will feature a maximum of five (5) nominees. Categories are listed in clause 6. The organizing committee reserves the right to merge, modify, or cancel categories based on the number of nominations received. Winners in each category will be determined through public voting. The nominee with the highest number of votes in their respective category will be declared the winner. Voting will be conducted via USSD *9595#, SMS, and web interface, and any attempts at vote manipulation may result in disqualification. All nominations and votes received will undergo a vetting process to ensure that all content creators and influencers comply with the stipulated terms and conditions.
