What is Overdraft?

An African Bank Overdraft facility is a credit facility, in the form of an agreement made with African Bank that allows a MyWORLD account holder to use or withdraw more money than what they have in their MyWORLD account, up to an approved limit.

In other words, the customer’s MyWORLD account can have a debit, or a negative, balance.

How Does It Work?

Because the Overdraft is linked to your MyWORLD account, you will need to have a MyWORLD account first to start the Overdraft application process. Once approved for a certain limit, you will have access to funds when you have used up all the money in your MyWORLD bank account.

You can use these funds for emergencies. You can also use these funds for making ATM cash withdrawals and for making online purchases using your MyWORLD bank account.

You have peace of mind, knowing you have access to funds in an emergency. The Overdraft can help with
** Mid-month emergency expenses.
** Access to cash before pay day.

** Cover for rainy days when you are running short on cash.
** It helps you to manage your monthly cash flow and provides protection from unpaid debit orders when your salary gets used up.
