SINGAPORE /PRNewswire/
-- Mercedes-Benz Financial Services (MBFS) Singapore continues
its digital push of applications and has successfully launched the
new myMBFS app for the Apple Watch. This latest addition to Daimler
Financial Services' suite of digital applications is part of a
series of on-going initiatives aimed at enhancing the customer
experience for Mercedes-Benz customers.
The
MBFS customer online portal myMBFS.com.sg, was initially
launched in April
2013 and was designed specifically for the
needs of MBFS' customers. The portal allows existing customers who
finance their vehicle with MBFS to access their vehicle's account
information via the web-portal or the myMBFS app. Nearly one in
three customers are currently active users of this account
management tool.
With
the latest release of the myMBFS for Apple Watch, customers are now
able to receive up-to-date information on their finance contracts
at a simple glance of the wrist. Information such as the number of
remaining payments for an instalment plan and the next payment due
date are presented in an intuitive infographic on the watch face.
In addition, customers can chose to be notified via the Apple Watch
whenever a payment is due or successfully completed.
"The
addition of the Apple Watch app is a reflection of our commitment
to enhancing our customers' experience with the use of the latest
in mobile technology," commented Mr. Andreas
Hinrichs, Director - Regional Management at Daimler
Financial Services Africa & Asia
Pacific (DFS AAP).
The
myMBFS app was developed locally by DFS AAP in partnership with
Singaporean app developer, Appvantage Pte Ltd. The app is currently
available for free on the iTunes AppStore.
