Notice deposits (From R1+) combine competitive returns with flexibility. Notice deposits offer you the higher rate of a fixed deposit with the flexibility and convenience of having access to your funds after you have placed notice.
Choose the notice term (7-day, 32-day or 90-day) that suits your savings need. You provide us with notice when you would like your funds to be available. You can add funds at any time and if you place notice, then no penalty fees apply to withdraw your funds. Interest rate is linked to Prime.
Place your savings (R10 000+) in a fixed term account and you will earn a fixed interest rate for the term. This ensures you have security of how much interest you will earn every month.
Your funds are locked away for the period of the investment, and you are unable to top up your fixed deposit. These types of accounts have an early withdrawal penalty.
Choose from 6-month, 12-month, 24 month or 60-month options.
A first home. Financial freedom. Your family’s future. Unexpected moments. Retirement.
