Be card wise

Card safety
  • Sign the back of your card as soon as you receive it.
  • Never allow anyone to use your card or PIN
  • Never let your card out of your sight when paying.
  • Never write your PIN down – memorise it and destroy your PIN mailer immediately.
  • You will receive a one-time password when you make an online purchase.
Credit sense
  • Be committed to paying all your monthly financial obligations, including credit cards.
  • Only apply for additional loans if you know you can afford the monthly repayments.
  • Track your financial standing by creating a monthly budget detailing your monthly income and expenditure.
  • Use your budget to identify areas where you can reduce spending.
  • Determine your net worth using the calculation: Total assets – Total liabilities = Net worth.
    Total assets: Combine all your money from your savings or cheque accounts, trust funds, property value, car value, stock value, etc.
    Total liabilities: Combine all your debts such as home mortgage, credit card balance.
  • Your goal is to have a positive net worth value at all times and it should be increasing as time goes by.
