First Capital Bank has launched Paperless banking across all its branches for all personal account holders. What this means is that manual or paper requests for certain transactions will no longer be processed from within our branches. The bank has put in place the necessary technology that will enable customers to perform these transactions without using or presenting paper-based requests. Customers, for instance, will no longer need to fill in deposit or withdrawal slips for them to have their transaction processed by a cashier.
Going paperless comes with many other benefits such as convenience, ecological advantage, saving time and of course, minimized risk of COVID infection and ultimately a better banking experience.
First Capital Bank has already embarked on a journey to paperless banking and over the next 3 months from 1 February-30 April 2022, we discourage our customers to use paper requests, such as filling in cash withdrawal slips, but instead start using our digital banking platforms. To give customers adequate time to migrate to paperless banking, the effective date for going paperless will be 1 May 2022, after which, manual transaction requests will no longer be processed.
Between now and the effective date, customers who are yet to register for our digital banking platforms will be assisted. However, we encourage all our customers to register for digital channels such as mobile banking (*229#), internet banking, WhatsApp banking (Alisa) and get their valid debit cards before the due date.
