Under Raast Person-to-Person (P2P) fund transfers and settlement services, bank customers can send and receive funds in their accounts using their bank’s mobile application, internet banking, or over-the-counter services.
For customers’ facilitation, they can set their registered mobile phone number as their Raast ID and link it to their preferred International Bank Account Number (IBAN) using the bank’s mobile application, internet banking, or visiting their bank branch.
Once a customer has set her/his mobile phone number as the Raast ID, others can send money to her/him using her/his mobile phone number without the need to know the account number or any other details. Bank customers can still use the Raast service for sending or receiving funds using their IBANs even if they do not have a Raast ID or prefer to use their IBAN.
Nice
It’s good service , Masha ALLAH
