A R0-per-month bank account that 4.3 million South Africans use will soon have debit cards

More than 4.3 million South Africans are set to gain access to debit cards for their R0-per-month Money Market accounts, a significant expansion of Shoprite's Money Market business. Launched by the retailer, the accounts were initially designed to offer a range of accessibility features for digital banking, but now seem poised to take a more comprehensive form, with broader payments capability and a more comprehensive financial services ecosystem on the horizon.
