ANZ Ups The Ante For Smartphone Banking

iTnews:

The bank’s three-year old GoMoney banking mobile app — which now has well over one million active users processing over $3 billion of transactions a month — and its more recent FastPay app for accepting mobile payments — used by 7000 small businesses — will both be re-released with new navigation and personalisation options.

Only a few days after I wrote this article comparing all the Aussie banks too. The new suite of apps is slated for early 2014 and one nifty feature ANZ demoed to iTnews was voice biometrics. Talk to your phone to confirm a payment and it uses it to approve or deny the action.
