Pan Asia Bank adds new Mobile Banking Unit

Pan Asia Bank recently added a wellequipped Mobile Banking Unit to strengthen its mobile banking efforts, in yet another customer- centric initiative launched by the bank.

Commenting on the initiative, in a media release Nimal Tillekeratne Director/ CEO of Pan Asia Bank said, “Staff at Pan Asia Bank is working round the clock to facilitate services for our valued customers, to ensure they can conduct all their banking needs smoothly. We are pleased to strengthen our Mobile Banking capabilities with this unit to ensure customers can access our services with ease at their doorsteps. Also, during recent the COVID- 19 pandemic we witnessed how useful such facilities can be and this is why we wanted to enhance our capability to offer most frequently used banking service through the Mobile Banking Units, which are like mini bank branches and as safe as transacting at one of our branches.”

The latest Mobile Banking Unit consists of an ATM machine (which can also be accessed by non-customers) and offers other services such as opening of savings accounts; LKR cash deposits to existing customer current/savings accounts; cash withdrawals from accounts; withdrawal of Western Union money transfer proceeds, cheque deposits to current accounts; acceptance of cash/cheques for settlement of lease rentals/credit card or utility bill payments; collection of loan applications.

“By providing a wide range of services via the Mobile Banking Unit, Pan Asia Bank ensures customers always have access to their cash and can securely conduct their transactions without having to travel and visit their branches amid social distancing guidelines,” the release said.

All the official health precautions against COVID-19 are being taken by the staff such as wearing masks, gloves, sanitizing and frequent disinfection.
