The app aims to combine mobile shopping, comparison, e-wallets, p2p payments, money management (analytics) and even investment into one handy tool.
Axis
Bank today launched a new mobile app called LIME that claims to be the
first app in the country that offers Wallet, Shopping, Payments and Banking.
The app does not require users to be Axis Bank customers and spokespersons
present at the event made it a point to reinforce this several times.
The
app allows any individual to create a mobile wallet and make peer-to-peer,
online and offline payments. There is also an option to create shared wallets,
a feature useful when a group of people need to pool in money for a particular
purpose such as gifting, or planning a trip etc.
As Mr. Rajiv Anand, Group Executive
& Head Retail Banking, Axis Bank said at the event, “this is one app to
rule them all” and true to that LIME also functions as a comparison tool,
letting users compare as well as purchase products and services from within the
app.

(Know Your Customer) form. In addition, LIME will give you the ability to keep
a track of your spending habits and provide analysis. It also rewards you when
you save!
A short list of interesting features

- Shop, book tickets, pay bills or simply recharge your mobile or DTH via LimePay.
