MBABANE – From washing cars to driving his own business, 24 year old Khombindlela Vilakati of Luve has been crowned the winner of the first ever Instacash win a quantum competition , following a draw held at the company offices.
The announcement was made by Instacash Managing Director Mandla “Cheeks” Nxumalo during a prize presentation event attended by company officials and members of the media, with a journalist from Channel Yemaswati Kimberly Mavuso selected to conduct the final draw. The nationwide campaign, which began last year, was designed to reward loyal customers, with participants purchasing tickets over time for a chance to win the grand prize of a Quantum vehicle.
Vilakati, who is currently employed at a local car wash, expressed excitement after being named the winner, describing the moment as life-changing. He revealed that he had been participating in the competition since its early stages, consistently purchasing tickets in the hope of winning.“I am very happy to be the winner. I have been buying tickets since last year, and I did not expect this. This quantum will help me start a public transport business in Luve,” said Vilakati.
He added that having a driver’s licence will enable him to immediately utilise the vehicle for business purposes, creating an opportunity to improve his livelihood and contribute to local transport services in his community.

Nxumalo commended all participants for supporting the campaign and emphasised the company’s commitment to transparency by involving the media in the final selection process.“We thank everyone who took part in the Instacash Win-a-Quantum competition. To ensure fairness, we invited members of the media to select the winner on our behalf,” said Nxumalo.
He further confirmed that logistical arrangements are underway to officially hand over the vehicle to Vilakati.“We will be communicating next week to finalise the handover process, and by Friday the Quantum should be with the winner,” he added.
The Win-a-Quantum campaign reflects Instacash’s broader efforts to reward customer loyalty while promoting financial inclusion and economic empowerment through initiatives that create real opportunities for individuals.
Vilakati’s win is expected to positively impact his life and community, as he plans to use the vehicle to provide public transport services in Luve, contributing to local economic activity.
