Over 250,000 Logins of National Bank's Mobile Banking Solutions in Less Than 2 Months
(firmenpresse) - MONTREAL, QUEBEC -- (Marketwire) -- 01/17/12 -- National Bank (TSX: NA) is proud to announce that over 250,000 logins have been registered to its Mobile Banking Solutions since the application was launched on November 19. Just as they already do with their computer, clients with smartphones (iPhone®, Blackberry®1 and Android™) can now, through the m.nbc.ca mobile site, view their account balances, pay their bills, manage the limits of their Client Card and transfer funds from one account to another, not only at National Bank, but using Interac e-Transfer®2, to any personal account in a participating Canadian financial institution. All these features are also available from the NBC application which can be obtained at the App Store®. To date, iPhone and iPod touch® users have downloaded the NBC application over 25,000 times, even before the start of the National Bank Mobile Banking Solutions advertising campaign! Launched earlier this week, the campaign emphasizes the benefits of using National Bank's new mobile solutions, including its key feature, Interac e-Transfer.
Interac e-Transfer
Quick, easy and secure, the Interac e-Transfer feature enables clients to transfer funds from one account to another, across the country. With this simple tool, clients only need the e-mail address or mobile phone number of the recipient to proceed with the transfer. The recipient is therefore not required to provide any personal or financial information. National Bank is currently the only bank in Canada to offer the Interac e-Transfer service from one mobile phone to another.
"National Bank's clients are always looking for secure payment solutions that help them save time. With Interac e-Transfer, our clients will instantly be able to carry out person-to-person transactions without the delays associated with issuing cheques," said Danny Dery, Vice-President - Electronic channels and Payment strategy at National Bank.
Interac e-Transfer is available through National Bank's Internet Banking Solutions and Mobile Banking Solutions.
Managing Client Card limits
National Bank is also the only financial institution that allows its clients to manage their Client Card themselves, within the maximum limit set by the Bank. Adjusting ABM withdrawal limits and purchase limits with retailers across Canada and around the world is an effective and innovative way of minimizing fraud risk. This feature is available from National Bank's Mobile Banking Solutions and Internet Banking Solutions.
Mymobileguide.ca
In order to make it easier for its clients, whether they are novices or technology buffs, to learn about these mobile applications, National Bank has developed a guide that is innovative in the industry: Mymobileguide.ca. In it, clients will find videos, tips and advice showing how mobile solutions make their lives easier, saves them time and helps them keep track of their finances.
"In order to offer our clients a superior client experience, we have developed a unique tool, available on a smartphone, to guide them in doing their mobile banking," specified M. Dery. "Mymobileguide.ca is a user-friendly tool that is always at our clients' fingertips. In short, we are now able to be there for our clients, wherever they are and whenever it is convenient for them.
