Capitec bank offers a wide range of cardless financial services.
One of them is the Capitec eWallet, the most used service in South Africa for sending cash to a cellphone number.
It works similar to the FNB eWallet or any other bank service, the only difference is security, convenience, and costs of transferring money to friends and families.
Without wasting your time, let’s look at the benefits of using the Capitec Bank eWallet service.
How Does It Work?
eWallet services are designed for ease of use and reliability.
The Capitec ewallet lets you send cash up to R3,000 per transaction with a daily limit of R5,000.
You also have a limit of sending up to R25,000 per month with the cash send service.
All of these at a fixed cost of R16 if you send amounts over R1,001. Otherwise, anything between R40 – R1,000 will cost you only R8 – the cheapest after TymeBank money send service.
It gets even better:
There are no hidden costs and monthly fees for using the Capitec Bank ewallet. Only a once-off fixed fee charged per transaction.
The money will be available instantly for withdrawal at any of the Capitec Bank ATMs, Shoprite, Checkers, Usave, Game, Makro, and Builders – FREE of charge.
That’s how much it’s going to cost you for using the ewallet facility – better than making online payments to other bank accounts right?
