Access Bank launches Community Account

The Community Account is a complete transactional account that allows clients to perform banking activities such as mobile and internet banking as well as make deposits and Point Of Service (POS) payments. Clients have access to a full suite of solutions to fulfil their banking needs without any monthly fees. In addition, the organisations can make cash deposits at no cost whilst receiving a 50% discount on POS setup fees, rental charges and a POS merchant commission.

Further to the functionality, the Community Account offers account holders access to the women in banking programmes and services, provision for youth banking services, insurance solutions, competitive fixed deposit rates and the option to open an interest-earning Call Account. Speaking at the launch, Access Bank Head of Wholesale Banking Pauline Motswagae said the development of the offering in the Botswana market was driven by a need for an affordable, simple bank account with no added fees.
