Standard Chartered XtraSaver Account
Standard Chartered’s XtraSaver Account offers quite a good CashBack on the amount spent.
Standard Chartered’s XtraSaver is a MasterCard debit card which also doubles up as an ATM card that enables you to make NETS and MasterCard payments as well as withdrawing cash from its ATM machines.
It is linked to its own chequing account which bears interest, this is good as not much chequing accounts offers interest.
There is no minimum deposit amount required to open XtraSaver and also no need to maintain a monthly minimum balance in the account.
CashBack is calculated based on the average daily balance at calendar month end and is credited into your XtraSaver account on the first working day of the next calendar month.
