Question

I receive ebucks via FNB when I buy from Takealot, or fill fuel or if I buy from Checkers with my virtual card. Is it permissible to earn these ebucks and to use it to pay bank fees, fill fuel etc.?

Answer

It will not be permissible if you are earning it by paying using your bank card.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
