KUALA LUMPUR (Mar 20): Public Bank Bhd has launched ‘PB engage’, the first multilingual mobile banking application (app) that caters to users in Bahasa Malaysia, English and Chinese.

In a statement today, Public Bank (fundamental: 2.8; valuation: 1.8) said its customers can now access their financial accounts on-the-go, using the app, with their existing PBe user ID and password.

Customers can perform balance enquiries, fund transfers, mobile prepaid top-ups and payments through the app.

“Similar to the PBe website, PB engage has a user-friendly interface which utilises colour coded transaction tiles for different functions. The app also allows users to select from a list of shortcuts for instant access to popular transactions,” it said.

“It is designed to be simple and easy to use when viewed on mobile devices,” it added.

The app supports smartphones and tablets running the Apple iOS and Android operating systems.

Public Bank closed 4 sen or 0.2% lower at RM18.60 today, with a market capitalisation of RM71.94 billion.
