How Does Opay Safebox Withdrawal Work
On Safebox you can set the withdrawal date, this is like a maturity date, if you don’t set your own withdrawal date, you can as well withdraw on opay default withdrawal dates, which are march 31st, June 30th, September 30th and December 31st.
If you withdraw before the withdrawal date that you set, or apart from any of the four dates above, a breaking fee will be charged.
A breaking fee is a charge deducted for requesting a withdrawal on non-withdrawal days. Breaking fees are 2.5% of the withdrawal amount, this is to promote savings discipline and help you meet your savings goals faster.
