It is a supplementary utility launched in conjunction with Ingenico this year. The bank strengthens its position as the leading financial entity in mobile banking.

Banco Sabadell has included in its mobile banking service (BS Mobile) a utility that allows any user of the service to make collections from any credit or debit card. In practice, this means that BS Mobile transforms any smartphone, into a fully functional POS without needing any additional software or hardware to place at the disposal of its users the mobile banking service of the bank.

This solution is supplemented by that presented a few months ago by Banco Sabadell and Ingenico, which also transforms smartphones into mobile POS, via a physical device attached to the telephone. According to Albert Figueras, director of Means of Payment and Consumer Financing: "They're two different solutions, aimed at two different target publics. The solution developed in conjunction with Ingenico is intended for companies or the self-employed to carry out a large volume of collections using their mobile POS. This new option from BS Mobile is designed for companies with a smaller volume of transactions."
