Why save with us?
Regular savers are eligible to apply for loans at a preferential rate.
So the more you save the more you can borrow and the lower the interest rate. (T&C’s apply; Check out out Loans for further details)
You will receive Free Life Insurance on your savings (T&C’s apply). There are no hidden charges of fees on any transaction
