SMS
SMS Banking is a simple and fast message notification service. Select from either PULL or PUSH options, in either English or Arabic, to get the information you need, wherever you are. PUSH messages are automated messages that the bank sends out to the customer such as promotions offered by the bank, without the customer initiating a request for the information. PULL messages are messages that are initiated by the customer e.g. obtaining account balance enquires.
