Mobile banking and payments leader mFoundry today announced the launch of IBC Bank's mobile banking application.
IBC Bank is the Laredo-based flagship bank of International Bancshares Corporation (NASDAQ: IBOC), one of the largest bank holding companies in Texas. IBC leveraged mFoundry's mobile financial services platform to launch the industry's first bilingual mobile banking application. IBC is offering its mobile banking application as a free service to customers in both English and Spanish languages.
With IBC's mobile banking application, customers can have on-demand, secure access to IBC checking, savings and loan accounts. Customers can view account balances, search and retrieve account transaction histories, transfer money between accounts, pay bills, and search for IBC branches and ATMs. The application is available across carriers on a wide array of handsets including popular mass-market devices as well as BlackBerry devices.
"We are very pleased to offer bilingual mobile banking services to our ethnically diverse customer base," said Dennis E. Nixon, chairman of IBC's parent International Bancshares Corporation. "mFoundry provided us the most flexibility and the best end user experience in the industry so we're anticipating great adoption and usage of these services by our customers."
"IBC Bank is a regional leader with a longstanding commitment to delivering customer convenience," said Drew Sievers, CEO and co-founder of mFoundry. "We're excited to be a partner to IBC in launching the first bilingual mobile banking application and adding mobility to their current convenient banking options."
