Maximum account limits have also been adjusted upwards, with the minimum account limit rising from GH¢3,000 to GH¢5,000, medium account limits increasing from GH¢25,000 to GH¢40,000, and enhanced account limits climbing from GH¢50,000 to GH¢75,000.

In terms of monthly transaction limits, the minimum account, previously capped at GH¢6,000, will now have a limit of GH¢10,000. However, there are no changes to the monthly transaction limits for medium and enhanced accounts.
