Find out your Greenbacks level

Maximise your Greenbacks value and start earning more today. Use our interactive estimator to discover your level and how to unlock even more rewards. 

How does Greenbacks work?

There are four main goals to aim for every month. Each has at least one related behaviour in terms of money habits. Demonstrate the same behaviours each month to maintain your reward level and earn rate. Levels are calculated monthly based on banking behaviour. If you miss the mark, you still have a chance to get back on track the following month.

Goals

    Deposit your income into your Nedbank transactional account and set up at least two debit orders or make three money-out transactions using one of our digital platforms.

  • Card Swiper

  • Structured Saver

  • Responsible Borrower

     

    Earn Greenbacks for paying your personal, vehicle or home loan on time every month, and make sure not to exceed your overdraft limit.
