Kotak Mahindra bank has come out with the world’s first banking service which is socially powered. What it means is that you can not only check your account balances and make certain requests via your social media accounts (twitter), but also earn rewards by inviting your friends, foes and public (if you’re a marketer) to join Kotak Jifi. There’s a lot more as well. Let’s explore!
Fun and Rewarding.. You’d love to Transact!
Interaction with others on social media makes banking a fun and you also get rewarded for the same. Besides getting rewards for inviting others to use Kotak Jifi, you also get to earn social points every time you like or comment on Facebook and if that was not enough, you get to earn Transaction Points by transacting online or by making bill payments.
Jifi account holders can also share or transfer their social points to others in their circle and thus contribute in their happiness. And if you were wondering what to do with all these Reward Points, you got to choose from a host of lifestyle, shopping and dining offers where reward points can be redeemed, hence saving you real money.
Worry free both Online and Offline.. As you want it!
It’s more fun when there are no worries. Kotak Jifi account comes with a zero minimum balance requirement. So you no longer need to worry about getting down the minimum balance requirement and being charged hefty fees for the same. You do not get interest on the deposits, but if you have a balance higher than ₹25000, it will automatically be converted into Term Deposits in the multiples of ₹5000 and interest will be paid on them.
Social banking system mentioned earlier also communicates via DM (Direct Messages) on twitter, hence nobody from public can view your account details, statements and/or any communication you do with the Social Banking system..
The Platinum Debit Card that you get with your Jifi account comes with a bunch of security features and insurance that you do not need to worry while transacting or about losing your card. The Jifi Debit Card comes with the new enhanced chip system which is both secure and nearly impossible to clone. You also get a lost card liability insurance of Rs.2 Lakhs which covers any misuse up to 30 days prior and 7 days after reporting loss of card.
