Also customers can communicate with a bank representative in real time to ask a question. To launch Apple Business Chat, customers can click the "Apple” Messages" icon on the Boubyan bank website or mobile app and a conversation with a Boubyan bank representative will instantly open in the Apple Messages app. Apple Business Chat is available for users and businesses worldwide on all Apple devices (1.65 billion active devices). Apple Business Chat is integrated with native iOS features, services, and Messages app. With Apple Business Chat, customers can seamlessly and securely use the familiar Apple Maps, Apple Pay, Calendar, Spotlight, and Wallet to deliver efficient customer service that feels personal and meaningful.
