Banking And Finance Houses
- 1. VALUE PROPOSITION Banking and Finance Houses SMS Banking is a technology-enabled service offering from banks to its customers, permitting them to operate selected banking services over their mobile phones using SMS messaging. As a personalized end-user communication instrument, today mobile phones are perhaps the easiest channel on which customers can be reached on the spot, as they carry the mobile phone all the time no matter where they are. Urgent warning messages, such as SMS alerts, are received by the customer instantaneously; unlike other channels such as the post, email, Internet etc. on which a bank's notifications to the customer involves the risk of delayed delivery and response. The SMS Banking channel also acts as the banks means of alerting its customers, especially in an emergency situation; e.g. when there is an ATM fraud happening in the region, the bank can push a mass alert (although not subscribed by all customers) or automatically alert on an individual basis when a predefined abnormal transaction happens on a customers account using the ATM or credit card. Where other software houses have focused on the internal account maintenance and control through linked systems as above, the Coretalk software is aimed rather at the value added services and additional product offering of the banks. 1.
