Pros and cons
Pros
- A savings account with a monthly fee of HTG 0 and a HTG 2,000 minimum deposit to open
- Easy access around the clock online, with a debit card for everyday spending
- Lends direct as a direct lender over terms of 13 to 36, and free early repayment is available
- Home lending covers purchase and remortgage, alongside a credit line for working capital
Cons
- Management fees can start after a period of inactivity under the account's access terms, so a dormant balance starts costing money
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre only, with no live chat or community forum for urgent questions
- The savings rate is variable, so the return on deposits can move up or down
Who it suits
- Haitian households building a first reserve, with a HTG 2,000 minimum deposit and a variable rate
- Borrowers who deal straight with the lender, with amounts of HTG 15,000 to HTG 5,000,000 over terms of 13 to 36
- Small businesses trading in Haiti that want credit alongside personal lending, since personal, business and credit line covers both
Who should look elsewhere
- People based outside Haiti, because the business credit product requires trading in Haiti with a known address
- Savers chasing a fixed return, since the savings rate is variable
- Applicants with a blemished credit record, given the hard credit check and the bad-debtor list rule

Frequently asked questions
What does it cost to hold the account?+
The savings account carries a monthly fee of HTG 0 and the account model is no monthly fee. The cost to watch is the management fee, which BNC applies after a year with no account movement on the balance. You open the account with a minimum deposit of HTG 2,000.
Is the money in the account protected?+
No regulator or deposit protection scheme is named for BNC, so savings are only as safe as the bank itself. Across this category, retail losses run at 70.15%, with the lower end at 65.75%. Keep your balance at a level you could replace if the bank stopped trading.
What card comes with the account?+
The card is a debit card, so spending draws straight from the account balance. The legal entity behind it is Banque Nationale de Credit, a bank founded in 1979. You can check the balance and manage the account online at any hour of the day.
How much can I borrow, and over what term?+
BNC lends as a direct lender, with amounts of HTG 15,000 to HTG 5,000,000 and terms of 13 to 36. The product range under personal, business and credit line covers personal and business needs, and the property side serves purchase and remortgage. Setup is quick, with Loan set up within 24 hours.
Do I need a credit check?+
Yes, credit products involve a hard credit check, and applicants must not appear on the banking system's bad-debtor list. ProCredit applicants also need to trade in Haiti with a known address, valid ID and a proforma invoice, plus a new vehicle for vehicle finance.
Can I repay a loan early?+
Free early repayment is available, so you can clear a BNC loan ahead of schedule without a charge. That makes it easier to pay down a balance when your income allows, and it suits borrowers who want the option to exit early rather than be locked in.
How do I reach support?+
Support runs on email, phone and help centre, so you can email, call or use the help centre. There is no live chat channel for questions that need an answer while a payment or loan is in motion. Servicing is also available online at any hour.
How do I deposit and reach my money?+
The account is easy access, so you can get at your balance without a notice period. You fund it with HTG 2,000 and manage it online at any time. One point to watch: management fees apply after a year with no account movement.
