As newly introduced by Diamond Bank Plc, the USSD Mobile banking
is an opportunity for Diamond Bank customers to perform transactions with ease.
As a banking medium, this facility uses a short (USSD) code for performing
swift banking tasks without restraint.

Meanwhile, this USSD mobile banking facility serves as a
great alternative to Diamond Android app. For the fact that the Android app is
solely for Diamond Bank customers who use Android phones, many other customers
do not have the privilege to use it as a mobile banking facility. But in order
to advance beyond this and ward off the stress customers sustain whenever they
have to visit bank branches for almost all banking tasks, Diamond Bank has
launched a short USSD code which will serve various banking purposes such as
airtime purchase, bill payment and fund transfer.
Interestingly, the newly-introduced USSD code allows Diamond
Bank customers to enjoy swift mobile banking regardless of the kinds of phones
they use. How is this possible?
The new USSD mobile banking is an offline facility. Unlike
Diamond Bank Android banking app which requires an internet connection, this
new USSD mobile banking doesn’t require any internet connection before you can
use it. In that case, all Diamond Bank customers are eligible to enjoy the
service whether their mobile phones are internet-enabled or not.
