September 16, 2016, Moscow - Mobile application 'Sberbank Online Kazakhstan' has been recognised as the best mobile banking application in the republic. This decision was made based on the third ranking compiled by the Association of Kazakhstan's Internet Business and Intervale Kazakhstan. In addition, Sberbank Online Kazakhstan entered the top 10 best mobile applications of the country. It took less than 1.5 years after the application was launched on the market to achieve these impressive results.

'The constant development of remote service channels is one of our strategic tasks in the CIS. I am pleased to note that our efforts are positively evaluated by the professional community and, what is most important, by our clients in the Republic of Kazakhstan. Currently the team of Sberbank's subsidiary is facing an even more challenging task - to maintain its leadership and go forward. I am confident that we can cope with it,' said Svetlana Sagaidak, Deputy Chairman of the Executive Board of Sberbank.

Sberbank has become a pioneer in the implementation of digital technologies in Kazakhstan. It was the first in the republic to offer its clients such solutions as Touch ID - a fingerprint authorisation system; Cash by Code - a service to request a withdrawal through an ATM using a code without a card; a money transfer to clients of the Bank using a telephone number from the address book of the application; a money transfer using the number of the card issued by any bank in the world, as well as crowdgifting (a request to borrow money) and crowdfunding (collective fundraising) services.
