APS Bank keeps one of its staffed branches on Tower Road in Sliema, at number 226. Unlike some other APS branches, Sliema has a cashier counter as well as machines, which suits visitors who want to change money or sort out a card problem face to face.
APS has been serving Maltese customers since 1910 and calls itself the community bank in Malta. This page is part of our directory of banks in Malta and explains what a UK resident, second-home owner or business owner can expect from the Sliema branch.
What the Sliema branch offers
The Sliema branch provides three things: a cashier service, an ATM and a deposit machine. A second machine, a Cashere APS ATM, stands inside The Plaza Shopping Centre on Triq Bisazza. That one handles withdrawals, banknote selection, balance enquiries, PIN changes and contactless payments, but it does not take deposits.
Opening hours follow the network pattern. In winter the branch is open until 14:00 Monday to Thursday, until 16:00 on Friday (cashier service until 14:00) and on Saturday morning; in summer it keeps weekday hours to 14:00 and a shorter Saturday. Older customers and holders of the EU Disability Card get priority from 08:30 to 09:30. Every branch also runs an autism friendly hour from 13:00 to 14:00 on weekdays, with dimmed lighting and reduced noise. Many visitors stay in the area, and our guide to hotels in Sliema covers where to base yourself.
Accounts, students and cards
APS offers current accounts, savings accounts, an online account paying interest on balances within set bands, term deposits and a student account. Students and graduates can also look at the Booost student loan and StudentAssist. The myAPS app and website run the accounts day to day, and the Contact Centre helps seven days a week from 08:00 to 21:00.
Debit and credit cards are available, along with open banking connections and a Help Centre offering round the clock support and a virtual assistant called AVA. UK readers will find sterling covered too: the bank publishes daily indicative exchange rates including the pound, issues them on weekdays before 10:00, and offers foreign currency fixed deposits in pounds sterling, US dollars, Australian dollars and Canadian dollars. For currency amounts above €15,000 its Treasury unit quotes rates individually. Those moving from Britain can pair this page with our relocation guide for UK arrivals and working remotely from Malta.
Investment, pensions and business support
The bank provides investment advice, including a free financial planning service, through investment advisors in its branches and relationship managers for larger needs. Products include bonds, shares, exchange traded funds, mutual funds, foreign currency, insurance policies and pension plans, and services can be execution only, advisory or discretionary. APS Funds and a personal pension plan sit alongside these.
Business customers can apply for loans and for merchant acquiring to accept card payments. Professional advisers in the area include AE Business Advisors and Apex Group (Malta). The bank's main office is at the APS Centre on Tower Street in Birkirkara, listed as APS Bank Birkirkara.
