A type of loan
An overdraft is a type of loan. It is a revolving limit, linked to the Alpha Premier or Alpha Payroll account and it is added to your available balance.
Using the debit card linked to your account you can:
- Overdraw your account, partially or in a lump sum, meaning you can use any amount you want up to your approved credit limit.
- Make ATM withdrawals or POS and online payments.
- Pay debts with a standing order.
The interest you pay depends on the overdraft amount and the number of days you use it.
For example, if you need an additional €300 for 10 days, you can overdraw your account and you are ultimately charged with €1 or less, depending on the type of your payroll account.
The charge is calculated with 11.75% nominal interest rate (plus 0.60% Law 128/1975 levy).
