HF Whizz is the mobile banking application for HFC Bank. Available to existing customers and non-customers, the app includes services ranging from opening and managing bank accounts to applying for instant loans.
As part of managing one’s account, the app allows customers to conveniently deposit and withdraw money from the linked account. These transactions are made possible through the use of M-PESA services.
Depositing is done through the bank’s paybill number while withdrawing sends the money to one’s registered Safaricom number or to a different M-PESA number.
Let’s take a look at how the latter is done.
