Intuit has released a publicly available beta version of Quicken Beam, a new, free service that works on any cell phone or mobile device (including the iPhone) and is designed to give consumers instant access to their bank balances and recent activity.
According to Intuit, Quicken Beam enables consumers to:
° Request instant account balance updates with a simple text message to see their balance and what transactions have cleared.
° Receive automatic low-balance alerts via text messages to their mobile device when their balance gets close to triggering a fee.
° Set additional alerts to be informed of major activity so they can catch identity theft early and keep credit card spending in check.
° View all their bank and credit card accounts in one place, anytime, from anywhere.
