News ICICI Bank account holders can use Twitter to transfer funds

[Deepu]

Customers of ICICI Bank can use their Twitter account for real-time fund transfers, prepaid mobile recharges and to check bank balance. Private sector lender ICICI Bank on Monday launched a facility which allows account-holders to transfer funds through Twitter.

The user will have to subscribe ('follow') the bank's Twitter handle and register for the facility, it said. For fund transfer, the sender needs to know the beneficiary's Twitter handle.

The sender will get an SMS with a unique code after the transfer; the beneficiary would need to enter it on the special webpage where he/she would be directed, to complete the transaction.
