Union Bank announced that its mobile app UBgo has now been further enhanced with the JustPay payment solution from LankaPay to enable seamless payments.  


In this phase of its development with the JustPay integration, UBgo users will experience the convenience of drawing funds from any other bank to ‘Top up’ their Union Bank current or savings account instantly.  The integration with JustPay will enable UBgo app users to make payments, transfers and carry out transactions all in one app without switching between several banking apps, by simply drawing funds from other bank accounts to manage all their lifestyle payments with ease. This would also help the UBgo app users to keep a better track of their payments and expenses by ensuring that the payments are all made through the Union Bank account on the UBgo app.  


The JustPay integration on UBgo will also be beneficial at a time of emergency where users could simply draw funds from any of their other bank accounts to meet emergency payment requirements instantly, without the hassle of running to an ATM, visiting a branch or even switching between apps.  


Commenting on the latest development on the app Union Bank Assistant Vice President and Head of Retail Liability Products and Alternate Channels Manisha Fernando said, “We have continued to collaborate with the national payment services provider LankaClear (Pvt.) Ltd to further enhance our user experience on UBgo. With the integration of the JustPay facility, UBgo users can easily top up their accounts at Union Bank from any other bank linked with the JustPay facility. In doing so, they will be able to have all their bank accounts on one app and this would enable them to make retail payments using the UBgo app and the Lanka QR facility or even make payments online or make real-time fund transfers using their app while ensuring that sufficient funds are available in their Union Bank accounts.”


To draw funds using the JustPay facility on UBgo, users can simply login to the app, add their other bank account number they wish to draw funds from, enter the amount and top-up the selected Union Bank account. The funds will be made available real-time and this can be viewed on the app by checking their Union Bank account details.
