Company Announcements

LONDON , Jan. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- iFAST Global Bank (the "Bank") today announced it has joined Bacs (Bankers' Automated Clearing Services), the national systems operator for the United Kingdom's (UK) bank-to-bank payment systems. This milestone enables the Bank to offer both Bacs Direct Credit and Direct Debit, expanding its everyday payment capabilities across the UK.

Bacs Direct Credit supports a range of payments including salaries, pensions, benefits and supplier payments, while Bacs Direct Debit is widely used for automated bill and subscription payments. With the introduction of Bacs Direct Credit, iFAST Global Bank will also provide Early Salary Credit, allowing eligible customers to receive their salaries one business day earlier than their contractual payday.

Launch Promotion: Earn up to £200 with Bacs

To mark the launch of Bacs services, iFAST Global Bank is introducing a limited-time promotional campaign, running from 1 February to 30 April 2026, where customers can earn rewards of up to £200.

Campaign mechanics:

• £100 Salary Credit Reward
  Customers will receive £100 when they switch their salary credit (or other eligible Direct Credit) to iFAST Global Bank, complete their first Direct Credit by 30 April 2026* and receive Direct Credits in any three months before the end of June.
• £100 Referral Reward
  Customers can earn an additional £100 by referring three friends to open an iFAST Global Bank account, with all three referees successfully switching their salary credit (or other eligible Direct Credit) to iFAST Global Bank and receiving at least one Direct Credit payment into their iFAST Global Bank account.

*Customers who switched their salary credit to iFAST Global Bank prior to the campaign launch (1 February 2026) remain eligible. T&Cs apply.

"Joining Bacs marks an important step in strengthening our banking infrastructure. It gives our customers a seamless and all-in-one access to a trusted national payment system, while enhancing everyday banking experiences," said Inayat Kashif, CEO of iFAST Global Bank.
