Update

Update:

Instant deposits are no longer available to customers who bank with Absa.

Unfortunately, this is due to a change with one of our banking partners

In the meantime, please use an alternative deposit method with your Luno wallet, such as bank transfer or using a different bank account for instant deposits.

We appreciate your understanding in this matter.
