KASIKORNBANK together with dtac introduce "ATM SIM", the SIM card innovation that makes financial transactions always handy for Thai people. It is Thailand‘s first and only service that enables customers to use ATM services via their mobile phones. Customers can check their bank balance, make transfers and payments and be informed of their payment deadlines wherever they are.
Krisada Lamsam, Executive Vice President of KASIKORNBANK Public Company Limited, and Thana Thienachariya, Chief Commercial Officer of Total Access Communication Public Company Limited (dtac), have jointly launched in a press conference the ATM SIM, Thailand’s first service innovation that combines financial transaction services with communication technology.
Mr. Krisada says ATM SIM is Thailand’s first and perfect convergence of financial services and communication technology, enabling customers to conduct transactions via their mobile phones as if they were doing them at an ATM. Customers, for example, can check their bank balance, transfer money to other KASIKORNBANK accounts and pay for products and services. Apart from general ATM-based services, ATM SIM is special as it enables mobile phones to warn users of payment deadlines and the customers can also add their KASIKORNBANK credit card accounts to their SIM so that they can also check their available credit and outstanding balance via their handsets. The only thing that customers cannot do is cash withdrawal. In the future, the bank will add more services to ATM SIM for the convenience of KASIKORNBANK and dtac customers.
