MANAMA: Ithmaar Bank has launched an enhanced website (www.ithmaarbank.com) with a more customer-friendly interface.
The website is more interactive than ever, offers an easy-to-navigate structure for all platforms, and was developed to bring the bank closer to its customers.
A complete redesign saw the use of latest trends in website deployment with an emphasis on creativity, usability, functionality, navigation, visual design and ease of use.
Customers are now able to apply for credit cards and financing through the website and can also see in real time how busy each branch is and how long the queues are.
“The new Ithmaar Bank website has a new interface for smartphones which automatically adapts itself to the size of the user’s screen to provide easier, more intuitive navigation. It also includes innovative functions which can be viewed across multiple platforms including tablets and desktops,” said chief executive Ahmed Abdul Rahim.
“Another useful tool is our online live chat service, which is now more accessible. With just a click on the chat icon, our team of experts will help our customers with any query. The new website also features Modaraba profit rates which are presented graphically making the numbers easier to understand,” he said.
The search engine too has been modified and now supports predictive text.
