Updates mobile banking app.
Ally Bank, the direct banking subsidiary of Ally Financial Inc., has expanded its Ally Mobile Banking app to include two new offerings designed to help customers conveniently access and manage their money on the go.
Specifically, customers can now use their smartphones to send and receive Popmoney payments as well as make recurring electronic fund transfers between Ally and non-Ally bank accounts.
“One of the recurring themes in the feedback we receive from consumers is how much they like the convenience of a direct bank, and these latest offerings are the result of our commitment to deliver customer-friendly products and features,” said Diane Morais, Ally Bank deposits and line of business integration executive. “We have seen phenomenal growth in customers using our award-winning Ally Mobile Banking app, and we’re taking our cue to continue to build the functionality of mobile banking to respond to that demand.”
