According to Lisa Frazier, Executive General Manager Digital Channels, Commonwealth Bank, the continued roll out of the CommBank app is making anytime, anywhere, mobile banking and payments a reality for more customers.

“From today, all of CommBank’s mobile customers have the opportunity to embrace the mobile wallet revolution and experience next generation mobile banking and payments enhancements.
