When we think about depositing money into our bank accounts or opening a new bank account, we do not physically visit a bank branch. Mobile apps have changed our conception of banking and made it more accessible. IDFC FIRST Bank’s Mobile app renders all major banking services accessible to you in the comfort of your home. Let us look at how this app functions and how it helps you ‘bank from home’.
How efficient are mobile apps for banking?
Before we delve into the features of IDFC FIRST Bank’s mobile app, let us address whether banking can be done through a mobile app. While online banking (net banking) has solved many issues and made banking more accessible, it is slower and less accessible than banking on a mobile app. Mobile apps are efficient for banking since they are faster, more secure, and more accessible.
