Keystone Bank launches Banking Platform

In keeping with its promise to make financial services easy and accessible to its customers, Keystone Bank Limited on Monday launched an innovative mobile channel enabled by dialing *533# within Nigeria.

According to the bank’s Divisional Head, E-Business Channels, Mr. Ernest Obi, the Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD) banking solution will enable Keystone Bank customers to conveniently perform third party transfers to both Keystone Bank and other bank account holders in Nigeria, open Keystone Bank accounts, buy airtime, pay bills and access a mini statement such as balance enquiry using their mobile phones without necessarily having internet data or airtime.

“The application is a convenient, reliable, fast, secure, and affordable way to access your Keystone bank account 24/7 through mobile phones without internet data. It works on all phone types’ Mr. Obi noted.

In his remarks, Keystone Bank’s Acting Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Hafiz Bakare, stated: “Following the successful divestment of AMCON’s shareholding in Keystone Bank which culminated in the change in ownership and management, the bank has witnessed series of positive developments.

“The product is Keystone Bank’s solution to facilitate customers’ access to their accounts at anytime of the day.

“The launch of this product demonstrates our culture of service excellence, strengthening the emotional bond with our existing customers while reinforcing the Keystone brand as one to be associated with by the entire banking public.

“Our internet banking is accessible on any internet enabled device while our mobile app is available on the Blackberry, Apple and Android stores. These services are enjoyed by the about 90 Million internet users in the country (according to the Nigerian Communications Commission, NCC) representing almost 50% penetration of the population,” he said.
