It is remarkably easy to begin an Exact account application online in South Africa once you fulfil all the requirements – which shouldn’t be a problem if you’re employed or self-employed.
Once your application is approved, you will be able to do your shopping at Exact on credit immediately. In this article, we outline a simple guide on how to open an Exact clothing online.
Exact account application online
Since Exact is one of TFG brands in South Africa, you can start an Exact account application online on the TFG Money Account application page.
Simply click “Choose a brand” to reveal a list of TFG brands. Select “Exact,” fill in the online form and follow the prompts to submit your application. Essentially, you’re applying to open a TFG account. This means that you can shop at any TFG retail store across South Africa, including Exact.
As usual with credit, there will always come a time when you have to repay. With TFG, there is a six-month payment plan (which has no interest charges) or 12-month payment plan (which is interest-bearing but has lower monthly instalments). It is important to ensure that your payment reflects by the first of the month. If not, you may incur extra interest charges.
Requirements
As part of the requirements for opening an Exact clothing account online, you must provide your full names, ID number, mobile phone number, employment and financial particulars, contacts, and references.
Additionally, you must upload your proof of income for at least one month (for example, a pay slip) and bank statements through the online application portal. The Foschini Group will use these to assess whether you qualify for credit or not.
Finally, you must accept the TFG account terms and conditions on the portal and to confirm that you:
- Do not have any other pending credit applications.
- Have not applied for debt review and are not under administration, sequestration or curatorship.
- Accept that TFG will have access to your credit profile via bureaus.
Once you upload all the documents, accept the terms and submit your application, you will get a confirmation SMS or email. If your application is successful, you will receive further details about getting your TFG Exact account store card.
If you’re unable to do an Exact account application online, you can still apply at any Exact store or other TFG brand countrywide. When you visit a store, bring along your ID or driver’s licence as well as proof of income.
