OCBC grants SingPass app access to digital banking services

The service was first rolled out on 4 July.

OCBC Bank customers can now use the SingPass Mobile app for digital banking services through the bank’s mobile banking app and Internet banking platform, according to an announcement.

The service was enabled by integrating digital banking services with Singapore’s National Digital Identity (NDI) platform. OCBC is the first bank to offer this service, which started on 4 July.

Using SingPass mobile as an alternative will benefit clients who currently use an access code and a PIN instead of fingerprint or facial biometrics to log into OCBC’s banking platforms.

Managed by the Government Technology Agency (GovTech), the SingPass Mobile app allows users to transact with over 60 government agencies online securely. More than 1.6 million Singapore residents use the app for government e-services, including checking their Central Provident Fund (CPF) account balances, filing taxes and applying for public housing.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
