Cellphone Banking

It’s easy, safe, convenient and cost effective! It allows you to transact on your accounts anywhere, anytime on your cell phone.

It's convenient!

  • Know how much money you have (balance enquiry)
  • Find out what's happening on your account (mini-statement)
  • Make payments (beneficiary payments)
  • Buy airtime for Vodacom, MTN, Cell C or Virgin Mobile ( prepaid airtime)

It's cost effective!

There is NO monthly subscription, and on top of that, you will get the following transactions FREE with Cellphone banking:

  • balance enquiries
  • mini-statements
  • prepaid transactions

You will only pay normal electronic banking fees for:

  • beneficiary payments

PLEASE NOTE: Network charges apply – your service provider will charge you for the amount of information sent to and from your cell phone. Luckily these charges are usually very low, so making a payment to a beneficiary may cost you only 4 cents

It's Safe!

Your cell phone banking sessions are secured by the same 128-bit encryption used for Internet banking. You also log on using your BlueBean Credit Card number and a PIN.

As long as you keep these numbers a secret, nobody else will be able to access your BlueBean Credit Card account.


TIP: No banking details are stored on your cell phone, so if you lose it or it is stolen, your BlueBean Credit Card details won’t be on it

It’s Easy!

There are two options that we offer for Cellphone banking:

WAP banking: It is banking on the mobile Internet. However you will need a WAP 2.0 enabled cellphone.

The new Cellphone banking: This service allows you to access Cellphone banking through a dial-up session. (You may use any cellphone for this option)
