Ameriabank presented two innovations at the international technological exhibition "DigiTech-2015". The first innovation is the joint project with Yucom company, "TV Banking".
As Burastan Movsisyan, Ameriabank's director of technology and operations, told reporters today, thanks to the "TV banking" project jointly implemented with Yucom company, the bank's customers, who are also Yucom subscribers, are given the opportunity to make utility payments directly through their televisions.
"By entering the menu, it will be possible to pay for the services of the Yucom company, as well as other utility payments. It is even possible to formulate a group payment order and make all utility payments with one payment," said B. Movsisyan.
It should be noted that the commercial start of the service has not yet been given, the test version of the project is being presented today, and it will be available to all Ameriabank customers by November 1.
A new system of online card transfers
Presenting the second innovation of Ameriabank, Burastan Movsisyan noted that it refers to online card transfers.
"This new system will compete with the well-known Unistim and Moneygram systems. By accessing Ameriabank's website, a bank client of any country will have the opportunity to make a transfer to the account of any client of our bank. In other words, you can easily make a transfer sitting at your home, accessing the Ameria Bank website," he said.
B. Movsisyan said that the transfer takes place within a few seconds.
"We believe that this service will arouse great interest among our Diaspora Armenians. The recipient must be a client of Ameria, have a card account or an opened account number, and the transferor can be a client of another bank," he emphasized.
Card-to-card and card-to-bank account online transfers can be made through Ameriabank's website from MasterCard, Visa or ArCa payment cards of any bank to Ameriabank's card and bank accounts. The uniqueness and convenience of the system lies in the fact that in order to make a transfer, it is necessary to have Internet access and only enter the beneficiary's account/card number, and there is no need to register a virtual card anymore. The money is activated in the recipient's account immediately.
The system is supported by secure connections (SSL) technology, in addition, the security of payment card transfers in the Internet environment is supported by Master Card Secure Code and VISA Verified by Visa (VbV) technologies.
