Banking has been completely revolutionized in a few years. With online banking services, one can quickly opt for mobile banking at their fingertips.
What is mobile banking?
Mobile/Internet banking is when the bank or financial institution services allow customers to conduct financial transactions using digital devices such as smartphones, tablets, or laptop computers while on the go. For example, people used mobile banking widely during the Covid-19 pandemic since we had to perform all transactions remotely. Nowadays, having a smartphone is like carrying a bank in your pocket. Earlier, we used to rush to the bank when anything went wrong with our bank account, but now we can use mobile banking to find out what’s wrong.
