The online banking service follows the earlier launches of the 1st 24/7 branch in the UAE by Noor Islamic Bank and the 1st online takaful offering by Noor Takaful in the region. And to compliment, the launch of Arabic enabled mobile internet banking service, Noor has also launched its enhanced tri-lingual website with advanced features. The website and suite of online banking offerings now come in English, Arabic and French.
The service, available in Arabic and English, will enable Noor Islamic Bank customers to check their bank account and credit card balances, transfer funds between their Noor Islamic Bank accounts and pay off credit card balances, in Arabic, as well as in English.
Hussain Al Qemzi, CEO of Noor Investment Group and Noor Islamic Bank, said: “With the economy slowly showing signs of emerging out of the tough times witnessed over the last 12 months, now is a unique opportunity for banks to sharpen their focus on implementing mobile financial services solutions that enhance their banking experience.”
“This requires a dramatic shift in emphasis from simply enabling basic transactions through cell phones and other mobile devices to adopting the more holistic, enterprise-wide mobile banking services strategy that we are implementing.
“For future generations, mobile internet banking will be the accepted and preferred method of personal banking. For many young people today mobile banking is becoming a key criterion for where they choose to bank. With the launch of the world’s first Arabic enabled mobile internet banking service, Noor Islamic Bank is again demonstrating its leadership in the provision of innovative, technology centric, personalized banking products.”
