DURBAN - FNB monthly account fees on bank accounts for individuals will be unchanged or reduced while new eBucks Rewards earn rules will make it easier for customers to earn more eBucks.
FNB illustrated the behavioural impact of eBucks Rewards by revealing that the majority (56 percent) of its customers are now spending 100 percent of their pharmacy spend at Clicks since the retailer became an eBucks partner in April 2020. Previously this behaviour was prevalent among only 27 percent of customers.
FNB Retail Chief Executive, Raj Makanjee said, "We are cognisant that customers are facing financial pressure, therefore unchanged monthly account fees and several free transactions will provide relief to many. The financial impact of Covid-19 has also highlighted some gaps in the way some customers manage their money so we will be giving customers even more value to improve their banking behaviour. The work we have done over the years allows us to extend the benefits of unchanged fees and enhance rewards to help customers make their money go even further in this uncertain time".
