Standard Bank is steadily expanding its Smart ID services, adding more branches to its network as it moves closer to its target of 50 locations by the end of April 2026.
The bank has already rolled out the service to 35 branches, with new sites added in recent weeks.
New Standard Bank branches added
Three additional branches have recently come online:
- Sky City in Gauteng
- Helderberg, Somerset West in the Western Cape
