What is eBucks PayDay? (Explained)

FNB launched eBucks PayDay in October 2025, and it’s a worthwhile change if you’re an eBucks member.


What changed?

Previously, eBucks payouts landed somewhere between the 8th and 13th of the month. Now, everyone receives their eBucks on the 15th of every month, a fixed, predictable mid-month reward.


It’s not just a fixed date though

Every PayDay comes with partner deals. Examples of what’s run so far:

  • Up to 15% back on Takealot Daily Deals, plus an extra 15% for TakealotMORE subscribers
  • 10% back in eBucks when booking accommodation through the FNB App
  • Up to 40% off selected tech and lifestyle products on the eBucks Partner Shop
  • Double eBucks at Clicks when paying with your virtual card

Deals rotate monthly, so check the FNB App on the 15th.


Travel rewards also got an upgrade

eBucks discounts on domestic flights now apply to the full fare, including taxes and bag fees, not just the base ticket price. Core programme members get up to 20% off, rising to 40% with FNB comprehensive motor insurance, and up to 80% for customers holding a full suite of short-term insurance products.


Worth knowing

  • PayDay deals typically run from the 15th to the 17th and are subject to availability
  • Your virtual card is the best tool to maximise rewards on the day
