Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) is now offering its personal banking customers the opportunity to make money transfers through their checking accounts using Siri.
A press release announced the new service, which will be available through the RBC mobile app for iPhone and iPad. Once a client gives the voice command (“Siri, send Jane $20”), Siri will confirm the name from a payee list, and the app automatically debits the client’s checking account and sends the payment, with the transaction protected by TouchID. RBC has been offering free person-to-person money transfer services for checking account clients since last year.
