Kina Bank is encouraging customers in Port Moresby to fully utilise its Digital Hubs to access banking services.
Kina Bank Chief Operating Officer Roppe Uyassi said this when opening the bank’s third digital hub in Port Moresby at the Rangeview Plaza on Tuesday 12th November 2024.
“These hubs are an extension of our branches and although they are cashless, they provide our customers with a convenient means to access almost all the services you would expect from a branch and help our customers to transition into greater usage of digital banking services,” Mr Uyassi said.
“The services these hubs provide include opening of Kina Bank accounts, issuing of Visa Debit cards, attending to customer enquiries, registration on internet and WhatsApp banking, conducting education and awareness of Kina Bank products & services. Our customers will also be able to apply for personal loans directly from the Hubs. The Digital Hubs are making banking accessible and bringing it closer to where our communities live, work and shop, we are paving the way for a more inclusive banking experience.”
Rangeview Plaza’s General Manager, Mike Taylor, expressed gratitude towards Kina Bank for its initiative to simplify banking for customers.
“We’re excited to partner with Kina Bank to provide banking services at our mall which shoppers can easily access. Thank you Kina Bank for bringing these services closer to our customers,” he said.
Kina Bank currently has two existing digital hubs located at the Eliseo Rainbow Shopping Mall and the Boroko Post PNG which have been operating since October last year.
The bank will also officially open its fourth digital hub at the Eliseo Waigani Supermarket on Thursday, 14th November 2024. This will bring the total number of hubs in Port Moresby to four. There are also plans to open a Digital Hub in Lae before the end of this year, and further expand into more locations nationwide.
