What is Standard Bank UCount Rewards?
UCount Rewards is Standard Bank's loyalty programme that awards Rewards Points on qualifying spend with Standard Bank credit and debit cards. Members are placed in one of four tiers (Tier 1 to Tier 4) based on their account type, salary deposit status, and the number of qualifying Standard Bank Group products they hold. Higher tiers earn more Rewards Points per rand spent.
100 UCount Rewards Points equal R1 in redemption value. Points can be redeemed at partner retailers (Pick n Pay, Woolworths, Engen), for flights and car hire through the Standard Bank Travel portal, as cash back directly into your bank account, for airtime and data, or against your credit card balance.
Because Standard Bank owns Liberty, holding a Liberty life insurance policy counts as a qualifying product for UCount tier purposes — creating a powerful cross-sell benefit. Members who bank with Standard Bank and also hold Liberty products, vehicle finance, and a home loan can typically reach Tier 4 with fewer additional products than members holding only banking products.
