DBS unveils brand-new mobile banking app

Balances can be viewed with a single swipe.

Singapore’s largest lender has launched DBS digibank, a new mobile application designed to make banking simpler and faster.

The new app allows users to view their account balances with one swipe on their devices without having to log in, a first in Asia. This is known as the Peek Balance function, which can also be used to check other DBS/POSB deposit or credit card accounts.

Apart from an enhanced layout and more intuitive navigation, DBS digibank also carries other new features such as personalised profile and customised quicklinks, faster payment transactions, and the ability to instantly open an account. Users can also log on to their account securely using their fingerprint.

Since its soft launch on 14 March, the app has seen more than 200,000 downloads, DBS said.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
