Fixed-Term Savings Plan — Maturity and Withdrawal

This is a savings product — no repayment is required. At maturity, your funds are returned with interest.

Repayment Methods

Automatic maturity payout

Funds plus interest are automatically credited to your Capitec account on the maturity date. No action required.

Auto-renewal at maturity

Opt in to automatic renewal via the app to re-invest at the prevailing rate on the maturity date.

Early withdrawal via app

Request early withdrawal at any time via the Capitec app. An interest reduction applies for the period withdrawn early.

Early Repayment

Early withdrawal reduces the interest earned. The penalty is calculated based on the remaining term — the longer before maturity, the greater the reduction. The exact penalty amount is shown in the app before you confirm an early withdrawal.

Loan Extension

Automatic renewal is available — your savings plan is re-opened at the current prevailing fixed-deposit rate on the maturity date. Alternatively, you can change the term or withdraw the funds at maturity.

Penalties

No penalties for allowing the savings plan to run to maturity. Early withdrawal results in an interest reduction as described above. No additional fees apply beyond the interest reduction.

Best fixed deposit rate in SA

Opened a 12-month fixed deposit with Capitec at 9.75%. The Deposit Insurance Scheme protects my money. The app makes it easy to track interest accrual. Will definitely renew when it matures.
