GCB Bank Launches Hajj Account to Empower Ghanaian Pilgrims
GCB Bank PLC has officially launched the GCB Hajj Account, a specialized savings account designed to help Muslims plan and save towards the annual Hajj pilgrimage.
This new offering introduced by the Bank, is tailored to provide convenience and security for prospective pilgrims, enabling them to set aside funds over time into a dedicated account.
The Hajj is one of the most profound spiritual journeys for Muslims worldwide, but for many, the financial commitments can make planning a challenge. The GCB Hajj Account provides a disciplined and structured savings plan with flexible deposit options starting from as little as GHS50.00. Customers enjoy no monthly charges, free e-alerts and e-statements, and the account comes with a free insurance cover for the journey, giving prospective pilgrims added peace of mind.
Beyond offering a place to save, the GCB Hajj Account reflects the Bank’s commitment to providing customer-centric solutions as well as supporting the religious, cultural and financial needs of its diverse customer base.
By easing the financial burden associated with Hajj, GCB Bank is empowering Muslims across Ghana to embark on their pilgrimage with peace of mind, dignity and confidence.
The account is open to all Muslims capable of making regular deposits into the account to meet the cost of the pilgrimage.
Account holders who return from the trip can convert their account into a standard savings account to save for other purposes or invest the residual funds into any of GCB’s investment products.
GCB Bank is a leading player in Ghana’s banking industry with 184 branches, 340 ATMs complemented by various innovative digital solutions. With the largest branch network in Ghana, GCB Bank is closely associated with hundreds of communities where the Bank not only offers day-to-day financial services but also provides the needed social support.
