Understand why credit is important

Are you new to credit or have you got limited credit history? Our credit cards could be a convenient way to borrow money and build a healthy credit record over time. We also have some important tips and useful information on how you can manage your Absa Credit Card and avoid financial pitfalls.

Having financial difficulty

If your debt is beginning to take control of your life, speak to us first. We can advice on how to effectively manage your debt.
Build a good credit record

Maintaining a good credit history is important as it reflects on your credit score which, in turn, usually impacts on your financial future.

To better manage your credit record, make sure you are in the loop concerning your creditworthiness (an indication of the likelihood that a borrower will default in paying back a loan). Also understand your credit score and credit report.
What we consider when giving you credit

Have a credit history, make your bill and loan payments on time and keep your debt low. This will show us that you’re a reliable person to lend to.

In addition, set up debit orders for payments such as bills. This proves you’re good at managing money.
Other credit solutions

You can also top up your recurring credit facility (Overdraft, Absa Credit Card or Revolving Credit Facility).Simply request a limit increase on your existing product based on the additional funds you require.*

*Subject to a standard risk and affordability assessment. Terms and conditions apply.
