YES BANK announced the launch of YES Business, an initiative to sharpen its focus on the business segment and address their needs. YES Business is designed to bring banking and related services for MSMEs under one roof. YES Business is inspired by the way an entrepreneur cares for a growing business which is similar to raising a child, with steady effort, close attention, and genuine commitment. This business segment offers a single point access to a wide range of tools and resources that help MSMEs in managing their day-to-day operations and achieving long-term growth.
Central to this launch is the IRIS Biz by YES BANK (IRIS Biz), a digital interface that provides a wide range of integrated solutions to both simplify and strengthen business operations. By combining core banking services with additional resources beyond traditional banking, IRIS Biz enables entrepreneurs and business owners to handle multiple aspects of their enterprise using a single platform.
Key Features of IRIS Biz app:
- 1. Simple, Digital Onboarding: Fully digital current account setup with Video KYC, reducing paperwork and shortening the time to get started.
- 2. Integrated Account Management: A unified view that allows business owners to manage both personal and business accounts together, streamlining the way they track financial health.
- 3. Access to Beyond-Banking Services: In-app support for accounting, taxation, payroll, and global trade finance, ensuring that critical operational tasks are easier to handle and do not require multiple external platforms.
- 4. Merchant Solutions for Faster Transactions: Innovative offerings such as Merchant EASY and Merchant PRIME, which provide resources like soundboxes for payment confirmations, same-day settlement of funds, and extended cash deposit limits, helping merchants and traders manage transactions efficiently.
- 5. Quick Access to Funds: Collateral-free overdrafts of up to ₹ 25 lakh available through the app, ensuring timely access to working capital.
