The service allows institutions of all sizes to offer a new way of banking to their customers without significant investments in new technology infrastructure.

The Monitise Americas solution is compatible across multiple mobile networks, so consumers are able to use the service without switching handsets or carriers. Current services available include balance inquiries, funds transfers, mini-statements and text message alerts.

"Consumers have challenged their financial institutions to provide more convenience and on-the-move access to their accounts," said Lisa Stanton, Chief Executive Officer of Monitise Americas. "In today's 'on-demand' society, banks and credit unions don't have a lot of time to respond and our service allows them to deploy mobile banking to their market quickly, enables their customers to access their financial information from anywhere and uses a platform that they can trust. The Monitise Americas system unites relevant players in a single secure connection, using a method that's already proven in Europe."

"The concept of 'value' has become a base expectation for financial institutions. Increasing that value by offering a cutting-edge service like mobile banking and payments redefines what a network can do," said Steve Rathgaber, President and Chief Operating Officer at NYCE. "Increasing numbers of banks and credit unions are seeing how the capability to deliver mobile financial services over the ATM switch creates a scalable solution that they can capitalize on regardless of their size, charter or mobile strategy."
