You can reverse and stop debit orders via an ABSA branch, ABSA Baking App or Online Banking. Please note debit orders older than 40 days cannot be reversed on the app. The limit for an in-app debit order reversal is R500. Should you need to reverse a higher amount, please forward a request to debitorder@absa.co.za or visit your nearest branch.  If you choose to only reverse a debit order, you will not be able to stop future payments online.
