Trying to get your bank statement can sometimes feel like a mission, especially when you need it quickly. Luckily, the Standard Bank app makes this a super easy task. You can get your bank statement directly from the app in just a few taps, choosing the period you need and then downloading, sharing, or emailing it as a PDF.

There are many reasons why you might need a bank statement. Maybe you're applying for a loan, need proof of income for a new rental, or just want to keep a close eye on your spending. Whatever the reason, having your statements easily accessible on your phone is a real time-saver.

I remember one time I was trying to sign up for a new online service, and they needed a recent bank statement as proof of address. It was late at night, and I couldn't get to a bank. I thought I was stuck until the next day, but then I remembered the Standard Bank app. I quickly logged in, found my statements, and downloaded the latest one. It saved me a lot of hassle and let me finish my sign-up right away.

Here’s how you can get your bank statement on the Standard Bank app:

Easy Steps to Get Your Bank Statement

1. Open the App and Log In.

First things first, open your Standard Bank app on your smartphone or tablet. You'll need to log in using your usual details, like your username and password, or by using your fingerprint or face ID if you have that set up for quick access.

2. Choose Your Account.

Once you're in, you'll see a list of your accounts. Tap on the specific account you need the statement for. This could be your everyday current account, a savings account, or another type of account you hold with Standard Bank.

3. Find the Statement Section.

Look for an option like "Statements," "Documents," or sometimes you might need to tap on "Details" first. Some versions of the app might list it under "Transactions" where you can then filter and download. The goal is to find where your past statements are kept.

4. Select Your Statement Period.

The app will usually give you options for different timeframes, like the last 3, 6, or 12 months. You might also be able to pick a custom date range. Choose the period that suits your needs. For official documents, you'll often find an option for "stamped statements" which are generally accepted as official proof.

5. View, Download, or Share.

Once you've picked your period, the statement will show up on your screen, usually as a PDF. You can read it there, or you can choose to download it to your phone. The app also lets you share the statement directly via email, WhatsApp, or other apps. If you need to send proof of a specific payment, you can also do that from your transactions list.

Make sure you have the latest version of the Standard Bank app installed. Updates often bring new features and improve security, making your banking experience even smoother.

Getting hold of your bank statements has never been easier, giving you more control over your money.
