VFD partners with eBanqo to implement a Banking Chatbot across its messaging platforms
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Linkedin

Nigeria’s leading digital bank, VFD, has deployed Bolanle, an AI-powered digital assistant, to support customers in banking transactions across Facebook, WhatsApp and Twitter. In less than two minutes, Bolanle can set up a new account with zero paperwork, transfer funds, pay bills, and perform cardless ATM withdrawals among other functions.

The introduction of this Chat Banking solution follows the launch of its mobile banking app ‘V by VFD’ in March 2020, demonstrating the bank’s resolve to tackle issues of financial inclusion in Nigeria by ensuring that banking services are available to all Nigerians on all possible customer channels. The goal is to offer a fully digital one-stop platform to both the banked and the unbanked Nigerians.

As a leading digital bank, VFD relies on the surge in the adoption of mobile connectivity and digital service to bring banking services closer to its customers. It is therefore a natural progression to team up with eBanqo to leverage the rise of messaging apps and advancements in conversational AI to build Bolanle.
