The launch of the app comes after the three-way partnership between the Bahrain-based financial institution, the open API banking solution provider and the digital web development agency was first announced back in August 2022.
BCFC says Sahel will enable its customers to apply for credit cards, virtual cards, loans and insurance, as well as manage repayments and view their transaction history, among other features.
Powering the offering is Codebase’s Digibanc platform, which is to be deployed in a cloud-hosted environment managed by Atyaf eSolutions, and will service the app with digital onboarding, eKYC and facial recognition technology.
