Bank Windhoek has become the first bank in Namibia to upgrade its ATMs to accept deposits of the new Namibia Dollar banknotes.
This is a step forward in supporting the country’s ongoing currency modernisation efforts.
The bank’s extensive ATM network is undergoing upgrades to recognise and securely authenticate the new series of banknotes introduced by the Bank of Namibia (BoN) in 2025.
Customers can now deposit the enhanced N$200, N$100, N$50, N$20, N$10, and the commemorative N$30 banknotes at select Bank Windhoek cash deposit ATMs countrywide.
Bank Windhoek chief operating officer Hartwig Rothkegel says this move shows the bank’s commitment to innovation and its customers.
He says the deposit of new banknotes does not only support the BoN’s modernisation efforts, but also ensures its customers enjoy a seamless and secure banking experience.
“Our team has worked diligently to prepare our systems and we are proud to lead the industry in advancing the way Namibians interact with their money,” he says.
More information on the locations and updates on this exercise will be available on the bank’s social media platforms in due course.
