eWallet: Making financial inclusion a reality
Since its inception in 2009, FNB's eWallet has revolutionised the way customers send money, enabling them to transfer funds effortlessly to their loved ones without the need for a bank account. This innovative solution has significantly contributed to financial inclusion, offering a safer and more cost-effective alternative to traditional payment methods. As of December 2023, FNB is proud to announce that over 34 million eWallet transactions have been processed, amounting to a total value of R21bn, marking a 7.1% increase.
To further enhance convenience, FNB customers are entitled to two complimentary sends per month, while Easy PAYU customers enjoy one free send via the FNB App. Recipients of eWallet transfers benefit from up to four free withdrawals for each transaction and can access their funds at any FNB ATM or select Spar and Total Energies Till Points, with the added flexibility of using the funds for prepaid services like airtime, data, and electricity.
