Why do banks impose transaction limits?

As noted, Tyme Bank is not the only bank that imposes limits on transactions in South Africa. In fact, all banks have this feature. But why is that the case? Well, there are two reasons for the existence of limits.

The first is that it makes it easy for a bank to manage it’s cash reserves. Remember most of the money in a bank is not kept as cash. So, should all customers try to withdraw at the same time, that could be disastrous.

Another reason for limits is security. In fact, you may want to impose limits on your own account as part of the process of securing it. If there is a withdrawal limit of R1000 per day on your card, as an example, it means a thief will only be able to get that money after stealing your card and PIN.

And if, as you should, you have enabled SMS notifications on Tyme bank, you should receive notice that somebody other than you is withdrawing money from your account. It would then be a matter of reporting your loss to the bank.
