Credit Cards
It’s smarter to use your Credit Card for purchases than using cash, and here’s why:
• You get up to 57 interest-free days on purchases, excluding cash withdrawals, casino transactions, Absa Online transfers, fuel purchases and budget plan purchases. This applies if all
outstanding balances on the credit card account were fully paid by the due dates. Cash and Garage Card transactions are not included in the interest-free period, as interest is charged
from the date of transaction. Terms and conditions apply.
• Avoid paying cash deposit fees when you transfer payments to your Credit Card using electronic channels (Online, Mobile or ATM).

Tip: Use your Credit Card for fuel purchases, as no transaction fees are charged.

Home Loans
A Home Loan offers you flexible repayment terms, so you can repay your loan over any term up to 30 years. You also get to choose from a range of interest rate options. Easy access
means you can use the funds you have paid in advance in your Home Loan immediately with FlexiReserve. At any time, you can choose to save interest by depositing an additional
amount into your loan. As your property appreciates in value, you can also increase your loan amount to finance whatever you want.

Early settlement interest


In accordance with the Mortgage Loan Agreement, an early termination fee up to a maximum of 90 days interest on the account will be levied on all Home Loans being cancelled where customers failed to give notice of the
intention of such closure. Where notice was given, such notice will be valid for a period of 180 days. In cases where the loan is closed in a period shorter than 90 days, the early termination fee calculation will be reduced by such
period. If a mortgage agreement is cancelled without prior notice, an early termination fee will be levied equal to the interest payable for a maximum period of three months less the notice period (if any).

Foreign exchange – general information
Whether your overseas trip is for business, pleasure or a combination thereof, Absa will help you with all your financial arrangements, so that your trip is enjoyable and hassle-free.

Please note these important rules regarding foreign exchange


The South African Reserve Bank sets an annual amount that adults, children and business representatives may take overseas. As the rules and limits change from time to time,
please ask us about the latest allowances. In terms of current South African Exchange Control regulations you may only be given your foreign exchange within 60 days of your departure
date. You need a valid passenger ticket, e-ticket or electronic flight voucher in your name for a journey commencing from South Africa in order to obtain your travel allowance.

You will require a valid passport and your green, bar-coded Identity Document. Non-Absa customers are required to produce the necessary FICA* documents.

Absa’s Foreign Exchange Desk deals in all major foreign currencies and is able to provide foreign currency for travel or transactional purposes, including:
• Foreign banknotes
• Multi-currency Cash PassportTM card
• Electronic funds transfers and bank drafts
• Western Union® Money Transfer service
• An up-to-date listing of current exchange rates.

We also offer the Currency Investment Account, an account which allows you to invest in most of the world’s currencies.
Tip: Use an Absa Multi-currency Cash PassportTM card when travelling internationally. It is much safer and more convenient than carrying cash.

Frequently asked questions

71
Frequently asked questions
For any other questions, please call 08600 08600, visit your nearest Absa branch or go to absa.co.za

How do transaction fees work?


In short, you pay either a fixed fee or a sliding scale fee, which is sometimes called ‘ad valorem’.

Fixed fee: When you perform account payments at an Absa ATM, you’ll pay a fixed fee per transaction, whether you pay R100,00 or R1 000.

Sliding scale fee: You pay a base fee for the transaction itself plus a fee based on the value of the transaction. For example, if you withdraw R500,00 from a current
account at an Absa ATM, you’ll pay a R4,50 base fee for the transaction plus R1,40 per R100,00. Therefore the withdrawal will cost R11,50 (R4,50 + 5 x R1,40).

What pricing options are there?


To get the most out of your banking, choose the product and pricing option that best suit your needs and your pocket and don’t forget to relook your options as your
needs change.

Remember: Doing transactions in a bank that can be done at an ATM or using Online, Mobile or Telephone Banking is more expensive.

1. Pay-as-you-transact
This is the standard fee pricing option, where you are charged a standard fee for every transaction you make.

2. Value Bundle
You pay an affordable, fixed fee from as little as R59,00 a month for a set number of transactions and various value-added services. On the Gold Value Bundle and
Premium Banking, unused transactions roll over to the next month.

3. Prepaid Debit Card


With this pricing option, an upfront fee is charged for all credits to the account. No fees are charged for transactions performed using Absa’s infrastructure.

4. Rebate Banking
You will receive a rebate on the banking fees for certain transactions if you keep a set minimum balance in your transactional, savings or investment account throughout
the month. (The amount required differs from account to account.)

Where can I find out about the pricing applicable to my account?


The pricing on your and all other Absa accounts can be found on the website (absa.co.za). You can also call the Absa Price Line on 08600 08600 and we’ll be able to
explain specific fees and the various pricing options available to you.

72
How do debit orders make my life easier?
A debit order is an instruction from you that allows third-party service providers and banks to collect money automatically from your bank account. Customers who
choose to use debit orders should always make sure that there is enough money in their account to cover the amount of the debit order.

What does ‘tracking’ a debit order mean?


If a debit order is processed and there are insufficient funds available in your account, the third party can try to debit your account again when funds become available.
This is commonly referred to as ‘tracking’.

How can I track my debit orders?


To be safe, check that your debit orders have all been processed correctly. If you notice any discrepancy, you can dispute the debit order and claim back the amount
taken from your account.

You can also register for NotifyMe and receive an SMS notification every time there is a transaction on your account.

How can I dispute a debit order?


You can dispute a debit order by visiting a branch or going online. If you dispute a debit order within 40 days of the debit order being debited from your account,
the amount will be credited to your account immediately.

How can I cancel a debit order?


You can only cancel a debit order by contacting the service provider directly and instructing them to do so.

If the third party continues to collect the debit order from your account after you have cancelled it, you can dispute the debit order or, alternatively, provide Absa with
a written stop payment instruction.

How can I avoid rejected debit order fees?


Arrange for your debit orders to be paid about two days after your salary/wage is deposited into your account. This will ensure you have enough money in your account.
Remember, you have the right to choose the date that suits you.

What is an electronic funds transfer?


It is the transfer of money between accounts linked to your portfolio, for example, transferring money between your current account and savings account.

What is a beneficiary payment?


It is a transaction used to pay a utility bill (municipal account) or beneficiary whose account is not linked to your portfolio of accounts (i.e. you would pay school fees,
an electricity bill or rent using a beneficiary payment transaction).

What is an immediate payment?


By using our electronic channels you can pay single credit payments in real time to beneficiaries 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. Note: There is a fee
payable to make a payment immediate.

73
What is a cardless cash deposit?
You can deposit cash at any of our cash-accepting ATMs without using an ATM card. Note: Additional fees will apply.

Why should I get eStatements?


eStatements are free, you get them regularly and they are easy to file, save and print.

How can I change to eStatements?


Simply logon to Absa Online (absa.co.za), click on the ‘Profile’ menu bar and then on ‘Manage eStatements’. You can also make the change on Telephone Banking
or by sending your request to officialemail@absa.co.za

What is a debit card?


This card lets you pay for goods or services at retailers where you see the MasterCard® or Visa signs. The money is taken off your account immediately.

What is an Absa-supported ATM?


These ATMs are supported by Absa and are dual-branded, i.e. Absa/Cash Express. Withdrawals made from these ATMs attract higher charges than if you had used
an Absa ATM, but lower than those if you had used a Saswitch machine.

What is a Saswitch ATM?


Absa does not own Saswitch ATMs, so when you use them, you’ll be charged additional fees. If possible, always use an Absa ATM.

What is the Global Alliance ATM?


The Global Alliance ATM is a joint venture of several major international banks that allows their customers to use their ATM card or debit card at another bank within
the Global Alliance ATM at no or reduced fees.

As Absa is a Global Alliance partner you can use your debit card to withdraw cash from any of our Global Alliance partners’ ATMs at reduced rates across the world.
