Citibank MMID

- Do you need to send money on an immediate basis, at an odd hour, and on a holiday? - Do you need to send funds quickly, safely, and securely and all you have is a smart device with an internet connection? - Do you need to send funds to a beneficiary whose account details are not known to you? What if all the above unmet needs can be simply addressed by registering your mobile number with your bank account coordinates? The IMPS ( Immediate Payment Services) a payment gateway allows you this service. Let us explore this concept in detail. Initiated by NPCI in 2010, the IMPS platform facilitates the electronic movement of funds from one bank to another within India. You can carry out your financial transactions in real-time, 247, safely, securely, and economically through this platform which can be accessed through Mobile, Internet, ATM, or SMS mode. To carry out a fund movement via IMPS gateway you either require: - MMID code and mobile number of the transacting parties or - Account details and beneficiary's IFSC code. Basically, Mobile Money Identifier is a unique random 7- digit code allotted by the banks to their account holders. This code along with your updated registered number is linked to your account number. Of this 7-digit code, the first four coordinates represent the identity of the bank which is facilitating the IMPS service. The person sending the money i.e. the remitter and the person receiving the money i.e. the beneficiary, both have to generate their unique code from their respective banks for the transaction to complete. Curious to know as to how one generates this code!
