I was amazed when I first heard that I could be paid for liking a post! Not only that, there was a promise of receiving points while paying bills and to top it all: getting any information related to banking through just a tweet. It was all because one little innovation: Jifi, a new product launched by Kotak Mahindra Bank.
Kotak's pathbreaking social banking product JIFI
Kotak Mahindra Bank has launched Jifi, a fully-integrated social bank account with youth as the target segment. Jifi transcends digital banking by seamlessly incorporating social networking platforms such as Twitter and Facebook with mainstream banking. Jifi is a zero-interest current account with no minimum balance conditions, and can be opened with an initial payment of Rs 5,000. All balances over Rs 25,000 automatically move into term deposits at applicable interest rates. Currently active in most metros i.e. Bangalore (Bengaluru), Chennai, Coimbatore, Delhi, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Kolkata, Lucknow, Mumbai and Pune, Jifi will be launched to other cities in some time.
Kotak Mahindra invited Indibloggers to experience Jifi firsthand at the live launch party across Mumbai, Delhi and Bangalore. Unfortunately, I couldn't make it but I made sure I followed Jifi thereafter, since new developments in banking that could help a self-employed author like me is always useful. I was dazzled by the features offered by Kotak's new JiFi, which I have listed below.
