Ubank is a well-established financial services provider that has grown over the years and managed to entrench itself primarily within the gold and platinum mining communities. The mandate and plan to service the broader working market in South Africa has become imperative in order to extend affordable financial services to South Africa. ubank has a strong presence and customer accessibility, mainly in selected mining and rural communities in South Africa. ubank has a long and rich history of providing basic financial services to mineworkers and their families spanning almost 40 years. In 1975, when other financial institutions largely ignored this sector of the market, Teba Cash Financial Services was formed to provide mineworkers with basic financial services. These included facilitating the remittance of funds to families and dependents in the rural and labor sending areas using a linked account facility. For more information visit www. ubank. co. za
