Banking support made simple: call us directly from your app

 
October 2025

Get help faster, safer, and smarter with Discovery Bank's new in-app calling - a secure way to connect directly with a Discovery Banker, wherever you are in the world.

Want a safer, quicker way to call us?

Getting help from your bank should be quick, safe, and stress-free. That's why Discovery Bank has introduced intelligent in-app calling - a smarter way to connect directly to a Discovery Banker from your banking app.

When you place a call through the app, you're already verified, so you skip the usual security questions. Real-time context from your banking profile - such as your recent activity, the products you use, and any risk signals - helps route your call to the right person the first time. That means less waiting, fewer transfers, and faster answers.

Even better, in-app calls work seamlessly over mobile data or Wi-Fi. So whether you're at home, on the go, or travelling abroad, help is always just a tap away.

How do you get started? It's simple

Here's all you need to do:

  • Update your Discovery Bank app to the latest version (6.7 or later).
  • Open the app and tap More > Contact us > In-App Call.
  • Place your call securely - no PINs, no extra verification needed.

Because the call happens inside the app, the experience is seamless and secure. It's the easiest way to connect.

Always have support - wherever you are

In-app calling is part of Discovery Bank's intelligent servicing experience, which means you have help whenever and however you need it:

  • Call us 24/7, 365 days a year
