Customer service habits that build loyalty

Jun 27, 2025
Mobile Money

As a mobile money agent, you're not just moving cash—you’re building trust, one transaction at a time. The truth is, customer service is your secret weapon. Great service brings people back. Bad service sends them to your competitor down the street.

Here are simple customer service habits that help you stand out and keep your customers loyal:

‍

Greet people by name (if you know it)

A warm “Good morning, Madam Akosua!” goes a long way. People love being recognized. If you can’t remember names, just say “Welcome” with a smile—it still makes a difference.

‍

Why it works

It makes the customer feel valued and respected. A personal connection keeps people coming back.

‍

Be fast, but not rushed

No one likes waiting in line forever. Learn your USSD codes by heart so you can complete transactions in under a minute. Have common amounts (GHS 10, 20, 50) ready to go.

‍

Why it works

Speed shows professionalism. Customers trust agents who work quickly and accurately.

‍

Double-check everything

Always confirm the phone number and amount before hitting “send.” If you're handing out cash, count it in front of the customer. Mistakes kill trust fast.

‍

Why it works

Accuracy builds your reputation. People feel safe doing business with you.

‍

Handle issues calmly

Network errors or failed transactions happen. Don’t panic. Stay calm, explain the issue, and guide the customer on what to do next.

‍

Why it works

You become the expert they trust—even when things go wrong.

‍

Keep things private

When someone sends a large amount or enters their PIN, give them privacy. Don’t comment on their money or shout out transaction details.

‍

Why it works

Discretion makes customers feel secure—and that’s key in any money business.

‍

Show you care beyond the transaction

Ask a regular how their business is doing. Notice when someone hasn’t come by in a while. Offer to help them register for new services like airtime or bill payment.

‍

Why it works

Small gestures build big loyalty. People come to you not just for money—but because they feel welcome.

‍

The bottom line

Happy customers don’t just return—they tell others about you. One loyal customer can bring 3–5 more through word of mouth. With good habits and genuine care, your customer base can grow faster than any billboard.

Start today: smile, listen, double-check—and treat every transaction like it matters. Because it does.
