NCB Mortgage Incentive Programme
What is the NCB Mortgage Incentive Programme? NCB’s Mortgage Incentive Programme is a special promotion established to reward sales persons working with property developers for referring approved mortgage business to the bank.
The Programme is open to sales agents employed to development firms who accept the Terms and Conditions of the Programme.
To refer mortgage loan applicants, visit the NCB Mortgage Website https://www.jncb.com/mortgageincentiveprogramme and complete the Referral Entry Form.
A 1.00% incentive will be paid for each mortgage loan referred and booked by NCB during the promotional period. The 1% incentive is calculated on the portion of the loan that is funded by NCB and will not include any part of the loan funded by other lenders such as the National Housing Trust. During the programme NCB may offer additional prizes to participants based on criteria determined by NCB.
The Programme runs from November 1, 2018, to September 30, 2019.
Incentive payments will be made to participants via bank transfer to an account specified by them and held at NCB in the name of the sales agent.
Incentive payments will be made on or before the 15th working day from the end of the month during which the mortgage loan in respect of which the payment is being made is disbursed. For example, incentives earned for the month of November 2018, will be paid on or before December 15, 2018.
NCB Flexipay
NCB FlexiPay instalment plan allows NCB personal credit card customers to convert credit card purchases of J$50,000 (or US$300) or more into smaller repayments of fixed monthly instalments. Cardholders may opt for a repayment term of three (3), six (6) or twelve (12) months at agreed interest rates as low as 0%.
Yes. There is one time, fixed processing fee of J$2,500 or US$20 (inclusive of GCT) on credit cards denominated in JMD and USD respectively. The fee is applied immediately to all NCB Flexi Pay instalment plans upon conversion.
The NCB FlexiPay instalment plan is available to all personal credit card customers who meet the following criteria:
  • Has maintained the credit card for at least 6 months
  • No delinquency in the last 6 months
  • Account is in good standing
  • Must be the primary cardholder

  • Purchase must be posted to the account before the next statement date.
  • Transaction must be greater than or equal to J$50,000, US$300.
  • Credit card account must be in good standing.
Purchases made at Government agencies such as Jamaica Customs or Tax Administration Jamaica cannot be converted to NCB FlexiPay.
A transaction must be posted to the account, prior to being placed on the NCB FlexiPay instalment plan. This means that the merchant must have settled their machine. This may take anywhere from 1 to 3 business days after the purchase.
Yes. The minimum single receipt purchase amount to qualify is J$50,000 and US$300 for credit cards denominated in JMD and USD respectively.
Yes. Only one (1) purchase may be converted using NCB FlexiPay at any given time. However, upon closing one, a new purchase may be converted.
Once the transaction is posted to the credit card account, it may be placed on an NCB FlexiPay instalment plan using the following channels:


1. Website – Customers may visit www.jncb.com/flexipay and complete the request form available. A confirmation call will be made to the cardholder within 24 business hours. Note: Requests submitted on the weekend or public holidays will be acknowledged on the following business day.

  2. NCB Customer Care Centre (CCC) – Customers may call 888 622 3477 to have an NCB Flexi Pay Specialist perform the necessary conversion and advise of the monthly payment options.
Yes. The credit card statement will reflect the transaction amount, fixed month payment, interest rate and the number of instalments left to be paid.
The monthly instalment amount will form a part of the minimum payment which must be paid in full, on or before your due date to remain in good standing. If this amount is not paid by the due date, the instalment arrangement would have been forfeited and the transaction would be converted to the regular interest rate on the credit card. A late payment fee will be applied on the next statement and the card restricted based on the length of time the amount remains unpaid.
Like any other purchase, transactions placed on the NCB FlexiPay instalment plan will reduce the available credit limit by the purchase amount. Your available credit limit will be replenished by the principal portion of each payment as the total amount due is made each month.
Yes. However, a cancelled plan will attract the interest which was calculated for the duration of the plan. To cancel a plan, please call our 24-hour Customer Care Centre at 888-NCB-FIRST and an NCB FlexiPay specialist will be happy to assist.
NCB FlexiPay instalment monthly payments are included in the minimum payment and amount due and will be placed on each credit card statement commencing on the first statement generated after the initiation of an NCB FlexiPay instalment plan.
