United Arab Bank (UAB), the UAE’s fastest growing retail bank, has introduced a free mobile banking app allowing its customers to have secure and easy access to their accounts.

Paul Trowbridge, chief executive officer said: “The application is designed keeping in mind the high usage of smart phones in UAE and changing needs of our valued customers. UAB's mobile application will be available on Apple, Blackberry and Android phones and it can be downloaded from Apple App Store, Blackberry App World and Google Play.”

“As with our loyalty program, UAB Rewards, where customers can redeem their rewards remotely, they can now also meet all their banking needs using their mobile handsets with constant access to their bank accounts only a fingertip away,” he added.

Tom Smith, executive vice president & Group head of Retail Banking said: "With the vast majority of the population in UAE having access to smart phones, it was important to introduce a service that allows them to address their entire primary banking needs. We are living in a fast moving world where we have mobile applications for almost everything that we want, and at UAB, we want convenient banking for our customers anytime, anyplace, anywhere."

The mobile banking application is free to download and use.  Customers will be able to view their account balances, transactions, credit card, loan payments, make transfer between accounts, pay utility bills and more, a statement said. – TradeArabia News Service
