Nouvobanq launches internet banking |22 July 2014

Seychelles’ largest local bank, Nouvobanq, launched its internet banking service yesterday, marking another step towards greater banking convenience for its customers.

"Nouvobanq Online Banking is a natural evolution for us," said Deoraj Puddoo, the bank’s operations manager.

"By combining the ultimate in convenience with state-of-the-art security, it fulfils our desire to offer smooth, hassle-free banking. Now, Nouvobanq customers with an internet connection can truly bank wherever they want, whenever they want."

Nouvobanq Online Banking provides customers with a full array of convenient features.
“Our platform was until recently only allowing us to provide e-statements to our customers but since last year, we have been working on upgrading the platform and now that this is done, we are ready to provide our customers with full fledged internet banking,” added the bank’s operations manager.

“Customers can now do all their standard banking transactions online. They can transfer money from a Nouvobanq account to another, from their Nouvobanq account to another domestic bank account, they can pay their utility bills, set up standing orders and make overseas transfers,” he added.

In keeping with the bank’s commitment to guarding its customers' personal and financial information, Nouvobanq has made security its top priority.

"We have invested in advanced encryption and browser protection technology as well as secure login, one time transaction password, audit trail and session timeout among other enhanced security features," continued Mr Puddoo.

The launch of Nouvobanq Online Banking complements the recent core banking system transformation which saw the bank adopting a state-of-the-art core banking system. The bank is now able to offer real-time transactions and other banking services for customers through their full fledged internet banking service.
