Private lender ICICI Bank has integrated its net-banking services with DigiLocker, an initiative of the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY).
DigiLocker is a repository platform for issuance, verification, and storage of digital certificates and documents on cloud.
“With this integration, all savings account customers of ICICI Bank who have mapped their Aadhaar numbers with bank accounts can directly register and access DigiLocker while they are logged into their internet banking account,” said the ICICI Bank.
The bank is offering this service free of cost, reported the Business Standard.
Over 20 organisations including the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, including various eDistrict applications are currently a part of the DigiLocker ecosystem.
“We will continue to offer a diverse range of digital initiatives and amplify the government’s efforts towards a digitally empowered community,” said Group Executive and Chief Technology and Digital Officer, ICICI Bank, B Madhivanan.
