How do digital banks work?

Digital banks function like traditional banks and do everything the traditional banks do; the only difference is banking and other financial services are delivered via the internet. The process of delivering these services is done through the deployment of advanced processes of automation and web-based services.

This allows interaction between multiple service providers behind the scenes to bring satisfactory financial services to the fingertips of the end user. In summary, as an end-to-end platform, digital banks allow interaction between the front-end users (bank customers) and back-end staff (bankers) with limited physical or one-on-one interaction between the two parties.

As this interaction is internet-based, it is accessible via mobile banking applications, online tools such as websites, automated teller machines (ATMs), and other forms of digital technology.

Therefore, all service delivery platforms in traditional banks, such as head offices, branch offices, debit/credit cards, ATMs, point-of-sale (POS) machines, etc., are available in digital banks, but in a more digitised, simplistic and convenient manner. Don’t get left out; join the digital banking revolution. Open a bank account online at Mintyn today!

No opening hours, no closing hours. The exciting thing about this is the freedom it also brings. It allows customers to do banking on their terms, however they prefer. It makes checking balances, managing debit/cards, transferring funds, paying bills, setting up alerts, and much more easy.

4. Enhanced security

Mintyn uses advanced security measures, such as two-factor authentication, end-to-end encryption, secure socket layer encryption (SSL), an automatic log-out function, SMS alerts/Push notifications on all activity, and biometrics verification. These help protect your financial information.

Two-factor authentication: is a 2-layer security system that requests two forms of identification from the user before they are allowed access to any kind of information, especially sensitive financial information.

End-to-end Encryption: is a private communication security system that ensures that only you (the user) and the bank can view any communication or request between the two parties. This means no third-party users may gain viewing access.

Secure Socket Layer (SSL) Encryption: Mintyn uses SSL to provide security on its web pages. You fill out very sensitive information on our web pages; we understand this and take it very seriously.  Hence, our Uniform Resource Locators (URL) are SSL encrypted so that the URLs bear “https://” and not the regular “http://”. This is to assure you that whatever information you provide is safe and protected.

Biometric verification: Biometric verification is a security system that uses biometric information such as fingerprint identity and facial patterns to verify users. No two users can have the same biometric data, especially fingerprint biometrics. Hence, we have integrated this essential security feature for identity verification in our mobile applications.

Auto-logout function: This security function logs a user out of the system after a period of inactivity is observed. This prevents unauthorised access to the user’s financial information.

SMS alerts/Push Notifications: These alerts and prompts appear across all your registered devices to give you real-time updates about any activity on your account. 

Enjoy maximum security for your money and financial information when you open a bank account online with Mintyn!

Environmentally friendly account Mintyn

A Mintyn bank account is where the future of banking meets environmental responsibility. Embracing digital banking goes beyond the convenience of managing your finances; it’s a step towards a greener, more sustainable future. Mintyn contributes to environmental responsibility by reducing paper usage and minimising your carbon footprint. Be environmentally responsible! Open a Mintyn bank account today!

Environmental Responsibility

Reduced Paper Usage

In our commitment to environmental responsibility, we’ve significantly reduced the need for paper in your financial transactions. Traditional banking often involves countless sheets of paper for statements, receipts, and documentation.

In contrast, Mintyn offers a paperless approach that helps conserve valuable resources. By opting for our digital bank account, you play a part in reducing paper production, ultimately saving trees and minimising the environmental impact of paper manufacturing. Say goodbye to physical statements and hello to the convenience of accessing your financial information digitally.

Minimised Carbon Footprint

Every action counts in combating climate change. Traditional banking practices, with their reliance on paper and needing customers to commute to bank branches, have a considerable carbon footprint. In contrast, digital banking is a game-changer in minimising this impact.

When you choose our current account, you choose a bank that cares about the environment. By conducting your financial transactions online, you reduce the need to travel to physical branches, which means fewer cars on the road, less fuel consumption, and reduced greenhouse gas emissions. In other words, it’s not just your financial burden that gets lighter; it’s the environmental burden as well!

How Does Mintyn Make a Difference?

Paperless Statements: Access your account statements, transaction histories, and documents digitally. No more cluttered file cabinets or stacks of paper. Our digital platform lets you securely view, download, and store your financial records.

E-statements: Receive your account statements through secure electronic delivery. Not only do you get quick access to your financial information, but you also help save trees and reduce paper waste.

Online Banking Tools: Our online banking tools, like checking balances and reviewing transactions, promote a greener banking experience. With these features, you can manage your finances efficiently without needing printed documents.

Reduced Travel: With our mobile app and online banking, you can conduct your banking activities from the comfort of your home. There’s no need for frequent visits to a physical branch, cutting down on your carbon emissions and contributing to a cleaner environment. Join Us in Making a Difference! Start banking with Mintyn today!
