Our verdict

BNC runs an easy access account with a monthly fee of HTG 0 and a variable rate, aimed at people in Haiti who want everyday banking with nothing recurring to pay. It suits savers comfortable leaving a balance in place and holding cash or a mobile wallet balance, rather than shoppers wanting many currencies.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • The monthly fee is HTG 0 on the easy access account.
  • Interest is variable, so the rate can move rather than being locked in.
  • The account is available around the clock, and support covers email and phone.
  • Payouts are available as wallet and cash pickup, so a mobile wallet or cash pickup works.

Cons

  • A minimum deposit of HTG 2,000 is needed to open the account.
  • Management fees can apply once a full year passes with the account left untouched, as the access terms state.
  • Only 2 currencies are held, so money in other currencies sits outside the account.

Who it suits

  • Haiti residents who want everyday access to savings with no monthly charge
  • People comfortable keeping a balance above the HTG 2,000 minimum
  • Customers who prefer phone or email help, both listed under email and phone

Who should look elsewhere

  • PayPal Colombia, whose monthly fee of $0 buys a digital wallet rather than an easy-access account
  • eToro, for anyone who wants to trade rather than hold savings at a variable rate
  • Skrill, which charges a monthly fee of €0 for a multi-currency wallet rather than a bank account

Who runs it

BNC is operated by Banque Nationale de Credit, based in Haiti and founded in 1979. The savings account is available around the clock, and the access terms allow management fees on an account left untouched for a full year. People who need help can pick between email and phone.

Frequently asked questions

What does it cost to run a BNC account?+

The monthly fee is HTG 0 on this easy access account, so there is no recurring charge to keep it open. The access terms do note that management fees can be charged once a full year passes with the account left untouched, so an account left idle can still pick up a charge.

Is the interest rate fixed or variable?+

The rate is variable, which means it can change rather than staying locked for a set term. Anyone budgeting around the interest they earn should allow for the rate moving, and check what the account pays at the time of reading.

How much do I need to open the account?+

A minimum deposit of HTG 2,000 is required to hold the account. That sits above the median of €0 across everyday accounts listed, so the entry point is higher than a typical bank account here.

How many currencies can I hold?+

The account covers 2 currencies, which puts it near the lower end of the everyday account ranking. It ranks 274 of 379 brands on currencies, so it is a poor fit for anyone earning or spending across many currencies.

How do I get help from BNC?+

Support runs on email and phone, so a phone call or an email is the route in. Across the brands listed here, 79.5% offer phone support and 74% offer email, so this mix is typical rather than unusual.

What can I withdraw money to?+

Payouts are available as wallet and cash pickup, covering a mobile wallet and cash pickup. That suits customers who want cash in hand or a mobile balance rather than a transfer into another bank account.

When can I reach the account?+

The account is available around the clock, so balances and transactions do not wait for branch opening times. Support sits outside that window, and help runs on email and phone, with management fees the one catch in the access terms.

How does BNC compare with fee-free alternatives?+

BNC's monthly fee of HTG 0 sits at the site median of €0, and the listed alternatives charge €0, £0 and $0 in their own currencies. The difference is what sits behind the fee: a bank account with a variable rate and a HTG 2,000 minimum, rather than a wallet.
