Solvay Bank rolls out new mobile platform

SOLVAY  —  Solvay Bank booted up a new set of mobile-banking offerings this month.

The bank, which has a main office located at 1537 Milton Ave. in Solvay, launched a mobile-banking platform Feb. 8. It allows customers to bank using text messages, mobile Internet browsers, or apps for iPhones and Android phones.

Customers can use the platform to access account information like balances or transfers. They can also pay bills, schedule person-to-person payments, and locate a Solvay Bank office or ATM.

Plans are in place to add mobile features in the future. Solvay Bank wants to be able to send alerts to notify customers when balances fall below a specific threshold, when checks clear, and when deposits are made.

“We are very excited to offer mobile banking to our customers,” Solvay Bank President and CEO Paul Mello said in a news release. “Mobile banking provides individuals with a time-saving, secure platform to pay bills and keep track of their finances. It is important to us that we have a robust mobile product to offer, one that meets the needs of our clients.”

In addition to its main office, Solvay Bank has seven branches in the Syracuse area. It reported third-quarter earnings of $1.6 million and had $591 million in deposits at the end of October. The bank also owns Solvay Bank Insurance Agency, Inc.
