Yes, I know that... But using this approach is very user friendly... And also here in Norway, sending SMS is kind of cheap... And the banks have API they can use but the APIs are not public so I can not use them... Also this is not just for banks, I also have an app for parking that also uses the SMS service of the provider... + I have an app just for me that uses SMS to turn my house alarm on and off... And since the app from the banks still are really bad, a lot of users prefer to use my app... But they now get an app that is not as user friendly as it has been....
