Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank Launches Strands-powered PFM App
ADCB has gone live in the United Arab Emirates with its personal finance management (PFM) application built on Strands' technology. The MoneyBuddy app helps ADCB customers understand and manage their finances in a smarter and more independent way.
Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank is introducing a new way of communicating with its clients, focusing on a transformative user experience and offering their users all the tools they need to get a 360º snapshot of their entire financial world.
Strands has a proven track of record of developing and delivering highly-customizable digital money management software to top-tier banks worldwide - and was selected by ADCB as their key FinTech partner for that journey.
More than half a million ADCB customers can already benefit from the MoneyBuddy PFM app functionalities, allowing them to:
Track their spending, savings goals and budgets
Predict how purchases will impact their overall financial health
Understand their monthly cash flow so they're never caught unaware
Moreover, to speed up the customer onboarding process in MoneyBuddy, iOS users are able to log into the app through Face ID, a biometric facial recognition technology.
According to ADCB, customer feedback has been outstanding so far, with registrations currently doubling their initial target. MoneyBuddy has already achieved a rating of over 4.5 in app stores.
Strands' value-added solutions enable deeper and mutually beneficial long-term value between ADCB and its customers, helping them cement their commitment to relationship banking.
