OCBC customers can now ask Siri to show them the money

SINGAPORE (Feb 23): OCBC Bank’s retail customers can now verbally ask Apple’s virtual assistant, Siri to help check their bank balances, credit card overview and make e-payments via the latest version of the OCBC Mobile Banking app and OCBC Pay Anyone app.

The e-payments can be made instantly to any bank account in Singapore, including bank accounts not linked to the PayNow service that that enables funds transfers using mobile or NRIC numbers.

Both apps that the service runs on are programmed to authenticate transactions with the bank account owner’s fingerprint or facial recognition.
