Your majesty, could u please state the process around initiating a transaction on the platform of those banks? Can't be this easy. It would involve sending and receiving instructions by way of numbers(1- accept, 2- decline) .

Fortis has a mobile money licence. *540# to register or perform transaction from phones that are not internet enabled.
First Bank does. *894#to register or perform transaction from phones that are not internet enabled.
Stanbic IBTC does
And there is Paga.

It could be risky. What if someone steals my phone and uses it to transfer money to his account ? How will such money be recovered ?
Re: Gtbank Launches Mobile Phone Money Transfer - First Of Its Kind! by austeen: 4:01pm On May 16, 2015
Not the first.....firstbank' firstmonie and even its firstmobile app has been doing all these and more since 2010 (far as I can remember)

Many other banks already have it.They should stop lying.
I tire o for this report o! Although GTB na my bank but they are not the 1st to do this. Infact, I am still considering about opening Diamond bank account because of the same service before I heard this info. But stilll on still GTB is still amongst the most innovative bank and am proud of them.
Re: Gtbank Launches Mobile Phone Money Transfer - First Of Its Kind! by freenature: 4:03pm On May 16, 2015
[size=30pt]Sorry OP GTBank is not the first to do this , First Inland bank in 2007 were the first to introduce this technology before merger during the era of Charlse Soludo Bank Capitalisation Deposit[/size]

And to say that the thing doesn't require pin or any sort of password means anybody that gets ur phone can easily transfer 20k to his or her account that day. All thanks to GTBank.

Exellent GTBank,
Keep It Up.
Re: Gtbank Launches Mobile Phone Money Transfer - First Of Its Kind! by infogenius(m): 4:11pm On May 16, 2015
Nice one by GTB
But I am worried about *737* service
as it has not served in crediting me
airtime on demand but my account will
be debited instead.
Keeping my fingers crossed on this service.
Re: Gtbank Launches Mobile Phone Money Transfer - First Of Its Kind! by pingpong1: 4:15pm On May 16, 2015
I used this service today to transfer money from my GTB account to my First Bank account and it was so easy that I got scared. I will tell you that there are no serious level of security and authentication for now. Just don't be careless with your phone number tied to your GTB account. One other thing DONT and I mean DONT ever allow anybody know the last 4 digits of your ATM card. If you have ever been told to hide your ATM card, this is the time

Its a Lie .Gtb is not the first to start this.FlashmeCash by Firstinland bank was the pioneer platform.
Re: Gtbank Launches Mobile Phone Money Transfer - First Of Its Kind! by pingpong1: 4:19pm On May 16, 2015
All of you saying this is not the first by any bank need to know that you don't NEED to download any app on this service. It simply an SMS based service. It can be done with a phone that costs N1000. As long as your phone can send SMS you are on. No app needed. Now is it the same with your bank?

That's my bank!
I never walk out of that bank happier than I was walking in. Their banking hall usually suck compared to others. No regard for aesthetics. angry

Then the age range of their staff too is just so.... aaaarh!! I don't even know to say.

The bank just sucks like the sap of a dead baobab tree!
