With July being National Savings Month in South Africa, it might be the right time to make sure you’re transacting in the most cost-effective way possible. Unnecessary fees add up, and cutting back on, or eliminating them completely can save you a stack of cash in the long-term. Luckily, there are a number of innovative digital banking channels that can help you do exactly that.
It costs a fee to withdraw cash at a branch or ATM, and you will also be charged to view your account balances and transaction history should you do so at these facilities. So, to stem the tide of wayward rands and to remove cash from your daily activities, exploit the advantages of the latest digital banking channels.
Most well-known and effective of these are online banking, cellphone banking and mobile apps.
