How To Withdraw Money From Fnb Ewallet

How It Works

eWallet is the best when coming to sending money via cellphone banking.

The FNB eWallet enables clients to send money to a cellphone number (your wallet), and the money can be accessed instantly, at any FNB atm.

You can send an e-wallet of up to R3,000.00 per day when using the mobile app or online banking. And up to R1,500.00 using Cellphone Banking or FNB ATMs.

It's only going to cost you R10.95 for transfers less than R1,000.00. And R13,95 for any amount over R1,000.00 to R3,000.00.

That's the most cost-effective way of sending money to family.

It gets even better.

The person you're sending the money to, don't need to have an FNB account in order to receive the money. They only need a working cellphone number together and the pin to withdraw cash.
