BANKING SERVICES

With EcoCash Bank Integration, those who have existing bank accounts can move money without entering a banking hall, anytime.  

It is also a major step along the path towards what many countries, including developed economies, are struggling to achieve: creating a completely cashless society. And it has now been achieved here in Zimbabwe through EcoCash.

In a matter of minutes, you can check your account, make bill payments, transfer money to relatives, do your shopping and withdraw money. You can do this anytime, anywhere!
