OREANDA-NEWS. December 14, 2010. Rietumu becomes the pioneer among the Baltic banks to launch its own application in Apple App Store – iRietumu. Using iRietumu, our customers can access their current accounts and manage transactions via iPhone and other similar gadgets, reported the press-centre of Rietumu.

“Fast and secure access to your bank account wherever you are provided there is a network coverage –  these  are the opportunities opened up by new technologies. It is convenient to have a bank practically on your palm, in any case – your bank is literally always at hand,” says Eugene Dugaev, senior vice-president of Rietumu.

View account balance and transaction history of your current account. View transactions and locked card account amounts. Get detailed information about your savings and loans, amounts due and accrued interest. Check new transactions within seconds. All these Rietumu customers can do already today.

“You can also access the overviewed information even off-line. We have paid special attention to the reliability of the application – data exchange and storage are encoded, and users may also choose additional security levels. The platform Apple iOS has high security level of transactions and information exchange coupled with exceptional convenience and simplicity. There is no need neither to be IT specialist to download the application nor to read user manual to use it, – notes Eugene Dugaev, – we speak the same language with our customers: the application is available in English, French, German, Russian and Latvian. If the need arises we will add more languages – even Chinese.”

Already next year our customers will be able to make payments and currency conversions, perform other transactions and send confidential messages to the Bank via iPhone.
