NCR has launched NCR APTRA Mobile Banking 3.0, a platform enabling banks to offer services via downloadable apps, mobile browser or SMS.

The company says that the solution gives financial institutions a simple and fast way to set up a range of mobile banking services, such as account balances checks, transaction history, money transfer between accounts, bills payment, and branches and ATM location. The consumer interface is consistent across multiple devices and modes, providing support for multiple languages and currencies. It also offers multi-channel enrolment, letting consumers sign up at ATMs, online or in-branch kiosks.

“Smartphone growth and financial inclusion are driving mobile banking adoption on a global scale,” says Michael O’Laughlin, senior vice president, NCR Financial Services. “Our new mobile banking solution gives financial institutions a flexible and secure way to meet the immediate mobile banking needs of their customers. As importantly, it provides a platform that will scale with the explosion of device choice, mobile bandwidth growth and migration from SMS, to apps and next generation of mobile browsers using HTML5."

"As mobile devices become more central to how people manage their finances, mobile banking will need to evolve to deliver new services that leverage the advantages of the channel and integrate seamlessly with other self-service channels. Scheduling and managing appointments across the mobile and other channels, receiving e-receipts on transactions at the ATM and mobile check deposits are examples of how banks will create competitive advantage by delivering an integrated experience for their customers across banking channels.”
