About E-Smart

Revolutionizing banking for South Africa's mobile-first generation

Our Mission

At E-Smart, we believe that banking should be accessible to everyone, regardless of their location, device, or banking history. Our mission is to provide simple, secure, and affordable financial services that empower South Africans to take control of their financial future.

We've eliminated the barriers that traditional banks create - no minimum balance requirements, no lengthy application processes, no smartphone requirements, and no discrimination based on your banking history. All you need is a phone number to get started, whether on a smartphone or basic phone.
