Through the rich graphical interface of the "IsCep" application, clients are able to access their accounts, check account balances, transfer funds and exchange currencies. The service also covers investment inquiries and credit card payments.

"There are more than 2.2 billion mobile phones in the world. Turkey has more mobile subscribers than fixed-line. Additionally the Internet penetration in Turkey is still limited. However, the potential of internet access through mobile phones is even bigger than the PCs due to widespread use of GSM technology. We believe that this solution will also benefit customers who has limited internet access and who are willing to do online banking. " says Pozitron CEO Fatih Isbecer

The "IsCep" application is also signed and Java verified by the UTI (Unified Testing Initiative). UTI's member companies are Motorola, Nokia, Orange, Samsung, LG, Sony Ericsson,Vodafone and Sun Microsystems.
