TymeBank chief executive Coen Jonker says the bank’s latest partnership with retail chain The Foschini Group (TFG) is set to grow customer numbers further with the roll-out of 600 bank kiosks manned by TymeBank ambassadors in TFG outlets across the ...

The kiosks have been installed in stores including Markham, Foschini, Totalsports and Sportscene, with as many as 250,000 TFG TymeBank customers already signed up.One of the fastest-growing banks in the world, TymeBank has secured more than 6 million customers since start-up in 2019, and is taking on more than 180,000 new customers a month.

“You can change your phone number, replace your bank card, check bank balances and, over time, we plan to introduce more functionality,” Jonker says.“With the potential to expose over 30 million TFG loyalty programme members to the TymeBank brand, we believe this partnership accelerates our mission to bring accessible, affordable banking to all South Africans,” he adds.

Scott Brown, managing director of value-added services at TFG, says the long-term partnership with TymeBank, and the ability to offer their products and services under the TFG Money umbrella, is perfectly aligned with the retailer’s goal of driving financial inclusion.

tymebank can't even solve problems within the 3-5 days as they claim, my transaction problem going on second week now. I wonder if they can solve anything?!!

Did they tell Foshini that tymebankza can't produce bank statements if there's no transactions & that there's very little to no decent support/help from Tymebank to pensioners?

Thought Foschini was upmarket

Ambassadors. Lol.
