About uBank
UBank has been providing basic financial services to mine workers and their families for more than 40 years.
Ever since UBank was established, we’ve managed to entrench ourselves primarily within the gold and platinum mining communities. We mainly offer our services in these selected mining and rural communities in South Africa.
We’re a trusted, local bank
Although we’ve been in the finance industry for many years, we’re still the bank you can trust to introduce the latest technology and security. This allows us to protect your information. It also allows us to give you excellent service. We’re a registered and authorized financial service provider that adheres to the terms and regulations of the NCA.
The uBank mandate
UBank has been providing hope, or rather, helping miners connect with their loved ones. Miners have long used uBank to send money to their families living in other towns and provinces. We’re still striving to remain the miners’ number one bank. And we also plan to service the broader working market in South Africa.
