The system will be rolled out across the RBS and NatWest sites and is part of a wider effort to improve customer acquisition and strengthen relationships with existing customers.
Separately, RBS has announced that it plans to shed a further 2600 jobs across its insurance and retail banking divisions. The group has blamed the decision on EU regulators, which have ordered it to sell off parts of its business.

RBS was not available for comment as Marketing went to press.
