Our Private Bank Account gives you all the benefits of a credit card with full transactional functionality - in one account. And now, in collaboration with OfferZen, you have access to Programmable Banking, giving you full access to your transactions and the ability to customise your card spend limits.

By launching Programmable Banking, we aim to create opportunities for IT professionals and software developers to solve problems and unlock new possibilities by revolutionising businesses, empowering consumers, and uplifting economies.

Write your own rules

Programmable Banking, through the Integrated Development Environment on Investec Online, allows you to deploy JavaScript code rule which executes before and after every card transaction. 

You can limit your fast-food spend, track your coffee intake on the fly or mitigate your company’s risk by limiting the merchants where your card will work.

 

Full access to your card transactions

Track spending behaviour in real-time by posting your card transaction data to external sources.

Set up custom budgeting and notifications

Integrate and build push notifications, SMS or emails for a fully customised experience.

Limit spending on products

Control where and when your card can be used and set spend limits based on the transaction type.

You can access the Developer Portal to see how others are practically using Programmable Banking to solve their business needs.
