These Digi Banks were designed to offer a seamless digital experience without the need for human assistance.
The primary challenge was to create a user-friendly, intuitive interface that could cater to customers across cities in Karnataka. The bank also sought to extend this experience to their website, ensuring a consistent and engaging customer journey across both physical and digital touchpoints.
