MB WAY is the Multibanco solution that allows you to make instant transfers, online and physical purchases, generate MB NET virtual cards and even withdraw money via your smartphone, tablet or PC. From this Friday (January 1), transfers via MB WAY will be free in all banks. However, Santander and Novo Banco offer more than definite.
For example, Santander will exempt all transfers “with no limit on the number and number of transactions made”. Transfers via MB WAY can be made “free of charge, via the bank application or the service application”. In the case of Novo Banco, the scenario is identical.
What if users exceed the MB WAY limits?
If the user exceeds one of the MB WAY limits, charges equal to those of the European Commission transfer regulations are applied, free of charge, at the rate of 0.2% for debit cards and 0.3% for credit cards. credit.
