Postbank is a South African savings financial institution, operating as a division of the South African Post Office.
Established in 1984, Postbank offers secure, reliable, accessible and affordable banking. The institution now has a network of 2600 outlets.
The institution specialises in offering retail customers basic transaction accounts, savings accounts and fixed term accounts (1 to 12 months.) The Postbank Term Deposit offers clients simple and efficient ways of saving.
A fixed deposit is an amount of money you save that cannot be accessed until maturity and no additional funds may be added to this investment. Various institutions have different options for fixed deposit types.
Interest can be capitalised or withdrawn on demand, however, withdrawal of the deposit before maturity is not allowed.
You can capitalise your interest, earning you interest on interest. You can also choose when you would like your interest to be paid out, either monthly, quarterly, half yearly, annually or at maturity.
Once the fixed deposit amount has matured, clients will have earned a significant amount of interest and will have the freedom to use the money however they please
