Bbva's Special Notice to These Clients: Confirmed, You Can Do It Starting Today

BBVA always positions itself at the forefront of financial technology. This time, once again, it brings excellent news for its customers. The entity has launched a series of innovative features for iPhone users, which make daily life easier and enhance the app experience.

From sending money via voice commands to paying with the mobile or accessing your global position with a widget, BBVA reinvents itself to offer convenient and secure solutions. These options are designed to simplify interaction with the bank. They adapt to the digital era we live in and make the most of the iPhone's potential.

BBVA Transforms the Banking Experience on the iPhone

Imagine being able to send 20 euros to Ana just by saying “Siri, send 20 euros to Ana with BBVA.” Since November 2017, this option is already a reality for BBVA customers who use an iPhone. You just need to configure the fingerprint on the device and in the bank's app, as well as be a Bizum user and have Siri usage activated in mobile banking.

With this feature, transfers are made securely without needing to open the app. Undoubtedly, an operation that is fast and simple.

For amounts over 20 euros, the bank has incorporated an extra layer of security. Users must confirm the transaction with their fingerprint or through facial recognition. This measure ensures maximum protection in every operation.

BBVA has adapted its services to the growing trend of using the mobile as a means of payment. Customers can add their cards to Apple Pay on the iPhone and Apple Watch, allowing payments at any terminal with contactless technology. This method stands out for its simplicity and security, facilitating the shopping experience without needing to carry the physical card.

The mobile payment service integrates perfectly with the bank's security options. Thus, it offers customers a practical tool for their daily transactions. The ease of use and speed of this solution have become another reason for more and more users to opt for the digitization of their banking operations.

BBVA also gives its customers the possibility to check the balance and know the global position of their accounts through the iPhone's voice assistant. Just say “Siri, show me the balance of my accounts” to receive the information instantly. This option turns voice into a powerful tool for managing finances quickly and efficiently.

Additionally, customers can access their global position through a widget on the iPhone's home screen. These small shortcuts allow checking the status of accounts, locating nearby ATMs, and even making transfers without having to open the app.

The widget configuration is very simple. You must have the BBVA app installed and have a security pattern or biometric access configured on the device.

Another highlighted novelty is BBVA Cashup. It is an option that allows sending money without leaving messaging applications like WhatsApp, Telegram, Hangouts, or Messenger. The first time it is used, the user must activate the BBVA Cashup keyboard in the corresponding app.

From that moment, making transfers is as simple as choosing the recipient, indicating the amount, and confirming the transaction. Immediately, a message is caused in the conversation confirming that the money has been sent, providing security and transparency in each operation.

BBVA also bets on innovation with options like BBVA Valora View, an app that uses augmented reality to help you find homes for sale or rent. You just need to point the iPhone camera at a property, and the application will show you the available information on Idealista.

Additionally, holding down the BBVA app icon on the iPhone allows quick access to common operations, such as transfers or sending money. This shortcut functionality makes regular operations more agile and accessible, allowing customers to manage their finances instantly.

BBVA Puts Everything Within Your Reach

iPhone users can enjoy additional options that integrate other operating systems and digital assistants. For example, by installing Google Assistant, it is possible to locate the nearest ATM or see the available BBVA cards. Likewise, the chatbot service on Facebook Messenger and Telegram allows checking the global position, locating ATMs, or sending money without needing to leave the messaging application.

This diversity of channels and tools demonstrates BBVA's commitment to offering its customers options that adapt to their digital lifestyle, ensuring that the banking experience is smooth, secure, and modern.
