“Aman Online Banking provided by Aman Bank is one of the latest banking services I have seen today, as I had previously a current account, then when the bank began accepting foreign exchange purchases in US dollars. I never needed to go to the bank to apply, but I opened FCY account then I transferred money from my account to the account of my son outside Libya. I always used the Online Banking to get the details of the transfer, of my account’s balance, etc.
My experience was positive and I'll be happy to refer others to your bank. Thank you.”

Aman Online Banking has provided me with safe and fast access to my bank account which I own, where I was able to easily view my transactions in the most accurate details through account statement, as well as the advantage of opening a new product of the various products provided by Aman Bank to its customers without the need to go personally to the branches and it is sufficient to complete the transaction remotely and then use the product formally and benefit from it.”

“Despite the multitude of alternative banking services for Cash and "shopping" from shops, markets and companies, my experience with the Aman PAY QR shopping and purchasing application was, in my view, the best, fastest and most secure. Starting from the ease and smooth use while ensuring protection unlike the use of traditional banking services, such as cards and others, so that it may fall the risk of post-use such as power outages or coverage during the purchase process, as well as copying the card's PIN and serial number then use them later.”

“Despite the number of bank accounts that I have in various banks in our country Libya and the use of all smart applications of those banks, but “Aman Mobile" application is the most important part of my interest, and thanks to this modern application, I can remotely manage all my accounts that I have both inside and outside Libya, and among these modern services which have been provided to me by this application to access to all my accounts, enabling me to easily remit any financial amounts that I would like to transfer from my account to the account I wanted, as well as direct control of Mastercard and Visa cards that I have beginning with obtaining password, renewing, activating the cards and vice versa. Request check book and a local cash withdrawal from the ATM withdrawal machines without the need for a local card. Finally, this application enabled me to convert a financial sum into foreign currency for the international account which I have outside my Libya.”
