Security and Safety

Clickatell has an unblemished safety and data integrity record. We are able to offer financial institutions additional security measures for their mobile banking messages. SSL encryption can be used on both inbound and outbound messages (available with specified API connections) and the further security measure of 2-factor authentication can also be employed. This convenient and cost-effective security measure uses a secondary code or PIN number to strengthen authentication.

Further mobile authentication measures include secure channel switching from SMS to voice or audio entry of verification PIN codes. This measure addresses concerns around PIN codes being stored on the device or in the SMS outboxes. Following online transactions, users can also be sent an additional authentication token via SMS to enter before being able to complete the transaction.

Clickatell delivers more text messages to more countries (over 220) through more network providers (over 790) than any other mobile messaging company in the world. Taking your banking services mobile with Clickatell allows you to truly offer 'mobile' SMS banking to your customers no matter where they might be in the world.

Not only does Clickatell offer an Interactive Campaign Manager tool that allows you to monitor and intervene in your customer campaigns in real time, it also generates and manages database integration and comes with additional marketing tools. Use Clickatell to implement an 'intelligent customer callback service' whereby customers can send a text message query instead of waiting in a phone queue to reach an operator. In turn they would receive an SMS notification back of the wait time and the system will notify the relevant operator.

The account management package allows users control over network channels and connectivity options. All of Clickatell's products offer text message delivery acknowledgement and customers can specify sender ID's. Your valuable financial message will always be delivered as our products allow for message escalation to alternative delivery gateways until it has been delivered. Financial institutions can securely send bulk SMS messages, personalize their messages around trigger words, names or dates and can also send extended length messages - over 160 characters. If your financial institution already has an emailing system in place, Clickatell has an 'email to SMS' option for you.

Clickatell has partnered with some of the world's biggest banks and financial institutions to offer safe and secure mobile banking options. Read more about our mobile banking success stories here.
