Bank Millennium app added to Huawei AppGallery

- As announced we are releasing the current version of the app in the Huawei store. We are also working on full integration with Huawei Mobile Service, so that customers with newer smartphones, who have so far not had the opportunity, could also use our app – Halina Karpińska, Director of Electronic Banking Department in Bank Millennium, said.

– Adding Bank Millennium’s app is further proof that we are carrying out the promised plan to develop the category of banking apps in AppGallery. This is also another example that our cooperation with the partner is not just integration, it is also about the rich suite of promotional activities, which are about to come – Witold Walczak, Ecosystem Development Director in Huawei CBG Polska, said.

Bank Millennium’s mobile app provides convenient access to finances anywhere and anytime. It has extensive personalisation capabilities, is part of omnichannel processes and provides solutions in open banking. Among other things it enables contactless payments, transfers, payments for city transport tickets and car parking, also allowing payment for motorways without having to wait in a queue and take a ticket. In open banking it provides the Finanse 360° service, which allows checking the account balance and history of transactions on an account in no less than nine other banks, as well as the opportunity to confirm income when applying for a cash loan by means of logging on to one of eight other banks.

The bank’s mobile app also makes use of augmented reality technology for setting-up a deposit, it allows motor insurance to be bought with use of Aztec code from the vehicle’s registration certificate or travel insurance with the innovative “Travel assistance” service. The bank’s mobile banking also allows updating data of an identity document, conveniently getting credit products when additional cash is needed as well as having many other matters sorted out expeditiously. It continues to be developed.
