For socio-economic growth to take place at scale, we need as many people as possible to be included in the financial system, because the more people that get included – the more we – as a country, get empowered.
The people of South Africa have amazing potential. However, unlocking this potential requires a bank to believe in and work with you. TymeBank set out to disrupt the status quo with accessible products and services and affordable rates; but beyond that, it was set up with a purpose of empowering South Africans and a desire to improve lives.
SAINC went off to meet a bunch of TymeBank stakeholders, from the remarkably passionate executives living out their professional purpose, to the individual and business customers who find in TymeBank a service provider that understands and delivers on their needs.
From remote IT technicians who hardly have time to eat, never-mind bank, to vibrant business owners handling cash on a day to day basis, TymeBank is growing its customer base at a rapid pace.
Building on the understanding that no one wakes up in the morning wanting to go into a bank branch, TymeBank has delivered to South Africa a unique and pioneering hybrid banking experience. With a mobile app that allows you to transact at all levels, TymeBank has embedded their live customer experience into the retail environment that their customers access every day.
With independent ratings as the most affordable bank account in the country and the savings account with the highest interest rate – as well as being the easiest and most accessible account opening process world over – it’s no wonder this newcomer to the market has over 5 million customers and is growing.
Banking should be for everyone. And with the world in its current process of rapid transformation, TymeBank CEO and Co-founder, Coenraad Jonker, believes it’s the job of his bank to drive this much needed change in South Africa, enabling customers to engage as economic agents and give people power in their own lives.
