New Cash Withdrawal Limits and Processing Fees
Alongside the revised ATM fees, Standard Chartered has reaffirmed cash withdrawal limits for its customers. The daily debit card ATM withdrawal limit remains at ₦70,000, while weekly withdrawal caps are set at ₦500,000 for individuals and ₦5 million for corporate organizations. Exceeding these limits will attract a 3% cash processing fee for individuals and a 5% fee for corporate entities, in addition to the required regulatory documentation.
The bank has urged customers to take advantage of Standard Chartered ATMs and digital banking channels for more cost-effective and seamless transactions.
