From tills to taps: 5 ways banking with us makes your life easier

Life moves fast. With Discovery Bank, your banking keeps up!

From cash deposits at your local supermarket to instant payments, virtual cards and secure document storage - everything you need to bank smarter is right in your app. Here are five handy ways to make everyday banking even more convenient.

1. Bank while you shop

Running errands? Now you can handle cash with convenience - while doing your groceries at top retailers nationwide:

• Deposit funds at Boxer, Checkers, Pick n Pay and Shoprite tills.
• Withdraw cash at Checkers, Pick n Pay, Shoprite, and selected Spar stores.
• You can also withdraw cash at any Visa-supported ATM - giving you more options wherever you are.

2. Pay instantly with PayShap

When you need to send money to someone fast, PayShap lets you make real-time payments to any client of a participating South African bank from as little as R1. No waiting, no delays.

Plus, if you have a Discovery Bank Black or Purple Suite, or a Black Transaction Account with bundled fees - you receive 30 free instant payments a month.

You can also use PayShap Request to safely request money from anyone, directly from your Discovery Bank app. It's a quick, secure way to manage payments between friends, family or colleagues.

Tip: Take a few moments to set these services up in your app to make your life easier when you need to use them on the spot.

3. Get convenience and more rewards with a virtual card

There's no need to constantly carry your physical bank cards - once set up, your virtual cards live securely in your banking app, ready to use for online and in-store purchases.

You can easily link a Discovery Bank virtual card to digital wallets like Apple Pay, Samsung Wallet or Google Pay, and tap to pay wherever you see the contactless symbol. It's fast, secure and safer than carrying your physical card.

Tip: With a virtual card, you can earn up to Ð1 for every R15 you spend (compared to a flat rate of Ð1 per R200 with a physical card). To earn the maximum, add a virtual card that's linked to an eligible credit card or transaction account, and use it for all your online and in-store purchases. Limits, Ts and Cs apply.

4. Enjoy loads of ways to bank seamlessly

From managing a busy household to day-to-day banking or travelling abroad - wherever life takes you, Discovery Bank makes managing your finances stress-free:

• Want to save and transact in foreign currencies? Open and manage Real-Time Forex Accounts 24/7 in-app.
• Time for a top-up? Buy prepaid electricity, water, airtime or data - on the go, in seconds, and at up to 15% off when you pay with Ðiscovery Miles.
• Have other Discovery products, like medical aid or Vitality? Enjoy convenient features like Health Pay and Vitality Pay.

5. Get banking support directly in your app

Convenience isn't just about payments. If you need help, we've introduced intelligent in-app calling - a smarter way to connect directly to a Discovery Banker from your banking app.

All you need to do is update your app to the latest version (6.7 or later), and then tap More > Contact us > In-App Call to get started.
