In 2018, financial services company, ARC Imali-Madi (RF), bought a 10% stake in TymeDigital. On 5 November 2018, African Rainbow Capital Financial Services Holdings – owned by South African entrepreneur Patrice Motsepe – obtained approval from the South African Reserve Bank to acquire CBSA’s 90% majority stake in the business.

The name of the business was changed in November 2018 from TymeDigital by CommonwealthBank SA to Tyme Bank Limited.
