Vodafone NZ is offering its 2000 or so staff $100 each to help out a local small business.
"We know lots of small and medium-sized businesses are doing it tough due to extended Covid lockdowns, so we're offering Vodafoners $100 to #PayItForward at your favourite local business - such as a café who can only serve takeaways in level 3, or hairdressers and physiotherapists stuck waiting for level 2," the telco said in a message to staff this afternoon.
The #PayItForward twist means the small business can use the money to help attract customers during their Covid recovery.
"We will give every team member who signs up $100 to buy additional products for future customers," Vodafone told staff.
