Whatever the economic climate, Nedbank is here to help small businesses succeed
Small businesses are facing severe socio-economic headwinds and, under challenging circumstances, obstacles are bound to arise. Business owners have even less time and focus to spend on managing their banking and financial affairs in general. The extent of business progress hinges on the support and assistance received along the way.
Nedbank Small Business Services offers extensive experience in servicing businesses with an annual turnover of up to R30 million. We offer a comprehensive suite of payment, investment and finance solutions, as well as industry specialisation and services that extend beyond banking.
And, because your business and personal finances are so interdependent, we have designed a way of banking that allows you to manage both through a single point of contact: your dedicated relationship banker.
Banking at your fingertips
Our relationship bankers are supported by a dedicated contact centre team that is on call around the clock, seven days a week.
Our Money app and Online Banking make it simple to manage all your banking needs easily. MoneyTracker, which is available on both digital channels, is a free money management tool that allows you to track your finances, create budgets and more. You can create dashboards to track the finances of your household, business and side hustle, generate and manage invoices, and monitor in- and outflows of money so that you can reach your saving and investment goals faster.
Nedbank Small Business Services offers specialist expertise and solutions for the medical profession and embassies, including financial solutions for diplomats, embassy officials and non-residents. Our credit processes, policies and pricing cater for the complexities associated with multiple income streams, self-employed and juristic entities and the specific risk profile of the small-business owner.
Easy, affordable banking for small-business owners
Our banking products are designed specifically to support small-business owners by offering convenience, affordability and flexibility.
