Exclusive for Youth Aged 7-18
Simple Online Payment with a Monthly Limit of 500,000 Won

iM Bank announced on the 5th that it has launched ‘iM-i,’ a mobile non-face-to-face financial service exclusively for teenagers. Since transitioning to a commercial bank in May this year, it has been preparing to launch a dedicated financial service for teenage customers, who are future clients, and has been conducting pre-services such as iM-i Music Lounge.


iM-i is available to teenagers aged 7 to 18 who possess a mobile phone registered in their own name. (However, parental consent is required for those under 13.) Registration can be done through the iM Bank application (app), and identity verification via mobile phone is required. One card is issued per person, and it can only be issued through the app. The initial registration fee is free.


The monthly deposit limit for the iM-i service is 500,000 KRW, and it supports prepaid transportation cards, cash deposits and withdrawals, as well as easy payments and online payments via KB Pay, Samsung Wallet, Kakao Pay, and Naver Pay. Transportation cards have a separate limit. When applying through the iM Bank app, users can also choose cards featuring the exclusive iM-i characters Dandi, Ttokdi, and Woody.
