“Disposable” night deposit bags are designed primarily to provide a safe depository for the cash receipts of customers who operate evenings and weekends and who do not have satisfactory safe protection against fire and theft at their place of business (or elsewhere).

There are several benefits to the use of disposable bags:

• Faster processing of the deposits.
• Improved efficiency in your administration.
• There is no need for clients to come into the Bank daily to pick up their night deposit bags.

Procedure:

Customers who wish to make use of the Night Depository must complete and sign a Night Depository Agreement with the respective preferred WIB branch.

On the agreement the following information should be correctly recorded and verified:

• Date;
• Company name;
• Account number;
• Signature(s).

​Please also be informed that as part of this procedure, clients are required to retain a copy of the deposit slip(s) for their record. Verification of deposits can be done via our convenient online banking service. If you do not have this service, please contact anyone of our Sales agents to sign you up.

Fee:

Clients will be required to purchase the disposable night deposit bags at WIB for fee of NAF. 0.45 (Forty-five Guilder cents) per bag. Bags will be available for sale in packs of 100 @ NAF. 45.00. Of course, it is recommended that clients purchase a working supply to ensure continuity of deposits. With the disposal bags, clients will be allowed only three (3) deposit slips per bag.

We are convinced that the introduction of disposable night deposit bags will significantly increase the night deposit processing and availability of funds on your account(s).
