Africa-Press – Namibia. <\/strong><\/span>BANK Windhoek and FNB have announced new fee structures for their services, which came into effect on Friday.<\/b><\/p>\n

According to a statement from Bank Windhoek, the financial institution considered the current economic outlook, compounded by the lingering effects of the Covid-19 pandemic when coming up with the fee structure.<\/p>\n

FNB Namibia said it updated its fee structure to provide value-for-money, affordable banking while supporting ease and convenience for customers by encouraging the use of various digital channels.<\/p>\n

The overall average Bank Windhoek increase is 6,2% in line with inflation, said Bank Windhoek in a statement.<\/p>\n

The bank will not charge subscription fees for internet banking, the mobile app and cellphone banking.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is to reduce our customer’s reliance on branches and to encourage them to use alternative digital services,\u201d the bank said.<\/p>\n

Utilising the new Bank Windhoek Mobile App for airtime purchases, will continue to be free of bank charges while AlertMe SMS notifications for debit and credit transactions remain free.<\/p>\n

\u201cElectronic statements are free, and customers are encouraged to register to save money on printed monthly statements. Also free is the first issue of debit\/credit cards as well as mini-statement on cellphone banking.\u201d<\/p>\n

Notice of irregularity, unsuccessful debit order and deferment fees remain unchanged and no data is required for use of Mobile App as the data costs are borne by the bank.<\/p>\n

Bank Windhoek managing director Baronice Hans commented: \u201cOur digital banking services continue to offer customers the convenience to conduct banking 24 hours a day, seven days a week.\u201d<\/p>\n

FNB Namibia also said its various digital channels will allow clients to conduct most of their banking activities 24\/7 in a location that works best for them.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn line with our strategic objective to continue delivering delightful and valued experiences, digital transactions will continue to receive focus in our annual transactional pricing reviews,\u201d said the FNB statement.<\/p>\n

Nangula Kauluma, FNB executive: retail banking said: \u201cWe appreciate that our customers are facing numerous financial pressures, and as a result, have ensured that these price increases remain in line with inflation or unchanged.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs an example, customer fees on card swipes have remained the same for the forthcoming financial year, while internal debit order fees have been reduced by 45%.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kauluma added that to encourage the use of their newer channels, [email protected] and CashPlus, withdrawal fees have not been amended, while customers can now withdraw eWallets free from selected merchants.<\/p>\n

With FNB’s electronic pricing options, customers can also enjoy free ATM withdrawals of various limits, in line with the account they hold, added the statement.<\/p>\n

Card swipes, payments, electronic purchases of airtime and electricity, and transfers are also free on electronic pricing options, and further complemented by the value-add provided by the monthly cash back earned with FNB rewards, the bank said.<\/p>\n
