The Problem
Opening and funding a new bank account should be a seamless, digital experience. However, many banks and credit unions still offer a cumbersome and manual process—falling short of consumer expectations.
The solution

It’s a win-win for both the bank and the customer. We now see less customer complaints, and more customer feedback on how smooth and efficient our process is.
