It is a secure and instant transfer of money between online buyers and sellers.
Payfast allows sellers to accept payments from buyers in a variety of ways such as credit cards (Visa and MasterCard) and Instant EFT (bank transfers to any of SA's four biggest banks that get instantly verified).
These include

  • ABSA
  • FNB

There is no charge to use PayFast.
If you bank with Capitec bank, please ensure you select ABSA's bank details from payfast when paying via EFT.
International Customers will be able to pay via Payfast via Credit Card only and NOT via EFT.

We are terribly sorry that you experienced a problem when paying! Payfast occasionally experience delays in payment due to delays imposed by Standard Bank and their clearing times.
Normally EFT's between accounts at the same bank clear instantly, but it is not always the case with Standard Bank and is unfortunately out of our control.
Please email your proof of payment from your Internet Banking to support@spccbrand.com and we will manually complete the process for you.

When you go through to the PayFast payment page, select Instant EFT and then select the bank that you bank with.
The next page will give you a link to launch your Internet Banking as well as account details to make payment to.
Using the launched window, you simply login as per normal and make a once off payment to the account details provided for the indicated amount.
Once you have done so, log out of internet banking and return to the window with the PayFast payment page where you click the "Verify my payment button".
The system will then verify your payment has been received and complete the payment.

If you bank with Capitec bank, please ensure you select ABSA's bank details from payfast when paying via EFT.
Please note EFT's may take up to 48hrs to clear.

Unfortunately you will not be able to use the Payfast Instant EFT payment method for the moment, if you don't bank with ABSA, FNB, Nedbank or Standard Bank.
