Ecobank Launches Mobile Banking App with Convenient Payment Solution

Ecobank Kenya has launched Ecobank Mobile App, a convenient and instant way of banking via the mobile phone.

The app integrates many functions, including Masterpass QR, a mobile payment solution designed and operated in partnership with MasterCard. Ecobank Kenya is the first bank in the country to launch the Masterpass QR.

The Ecobank Mobile App opens up huge opportunities for customers by allowing them to shop, transact and do business without cash. It is the first unified app delivered by any institution for use in 33 countries. 

Sam Adjei, Ecobank Kenya’s Managing Director said that they were proud to launch the innovative digital product in Kenya.

“The Ecobank Mobile App is part of Ecobank’s digital offerings. Known as Ecobank_on, the array supports our drive to digitalise banking in the country and across the continent. By leveraging the power of digital, we are enabling our customers, including our important merchant segment, to grow their businesses and live life with convenience. As the government continues to grow the nation’s economy, one of the fastest-growing in Central and Eastern Africa, Ecobank Kenya is here to support that expansion,” said Mr.Adjei.

 Humphrey Muturi, Executive Director Commercial Banking at Ecobank Kenya added that the App provides real convenience for customers and empowers them to carry out financial transactions that could only be done previously in banking halls.

 The Ecobank Mobile App enables customers to send and receive money instantly across 32 other African countries, other than Kenya. Customers can also use the app to open a free digital account – Ecobank Xpress Account. The beauty of this unique account is that it can be opened instantly with no references, or paperwork.
