Customers of the two financial institutions that subscribe to their mobile banking will from today be able to carry out interbank funds transfers and it option has been added to their application menu.

Speaking at the launch, Centenary Bank Managing Director Fabian Kasi said the two banks are giving their customers convenience to carry out transactions in their reliable time and place adding that in the near future they will convince other financial institutions to join the new revolutionary banking solution.
