Applications convey their messages and notifications to their users in different ways. In order to be able to send its messages to its users, Blue has provided two possibilities that each user can choose one of these methods according to their needs and tastes so that they can receive Blue’s notifications in the same way. One of these two ways is “SMS” and the other way is “Notification”.
Notification through SMS is so common and familiar that it does not need to be introduced. But push notification as a special and practical feature of various applications – not only banking apps – may need a little introduction; Especially because sending notifications has more advantages than notifying via SMS.
In a one-line definition, a push notification should be considered a type of notification that is sent from the application side to convey news or important information to the user. Blue notifications are also sent to the user when Blue wants to inform the user about transactions, entering the application or special news.
Why is it better to replace SMS with push notifications?
Because Blue notifications are sent directly through the application, they reach the user faster, but the SMS that the user receives on his mobile number is sent offline through the operator, and it is sent with a slight delay.
It has probably happened to all of us that we have sent a text message and it has not reached the destination. Or we must have had the experience that someone sent us a text message and it didn’t reach us. In the case of text messages sent to us from banks or different businesses, there is a possibility that they will remain in the operators’ traffic and be received later or not reach us at all. But notifications are received quickly and no traffic can prevent them from reaching the user.
Unlike SMS, push notification does not take up any space in your phone. If the user uses notification instead of SMS to receive Blue application messages, he no longer needs to have an inbox (message box) full of bank SMS, transaction details, etc.
How to activate push notification blue?
Blue has entrusted the user with the option of settings related to receiving messages and notifications to choose the way he likes the most to receive notifications. Therefore, if you want to choose the method of receiving Blue notifications, go to the “Profile” section in the Blue application and choose the “Notification” section among the various options you see.
Blue notifications are of three types: “Security notifications”, “Transaction notifications” (notifications related to all changes in the Blue account balance) and “Login notifications” (notifications about logging into the Blue application).
Due to some security considerations, “security notification” is done only by sending SMS, but users have the right to choose for notifications of entering the application and also transaction details. According to Blue, owners can activate one of the two SMS or notification options to receive these two types of notifications.
Due to the special features of the push notification method and all the advantages mentioned in this article, we suggest you to select the “Notification” option to receive these notifications so that you can receive the messages faster and be sure that you will not receive any notifications from you don’t give up
