A proposed credit offering for qualifying salaried eTap users, with a proposed maximum of R1,000. It is not open for applications. Launch is subject to NCR registration, credit approval, final pricing and terms. No launch date has been confirmed.
Eligibility is separate from the wallet: salary and credit assessments and bank-authenticated DebiCheck are proposed requirements. Having a wallet does not guarantee credit.
Potential additions to explore with suitable partners. These services are not advertised as currently available through eTap.
Additional prepaid utilities, household bills, subscriptions and transport tickets, subject to an agreed supplier catalogue and delivery process.
Employer-funded benefits, guardian-managed spending, sponsored bands and merchant-funded loyalty, with clear permissions and programme rules.
Protection products, device finance, additional credit and expanded money movement require their own provider agreements and readiness checks.
Retail or ATM cashout, cross-border services and crypto are longer-term opportunities in the research, not live eTap features. GFS remains the planned Phase Two offering described above.
