First Bank of Nigeria Limited has launched its second fully automated branch, FirstBank Digital Xperience Centre (DXC), on the campus of the University of Ibadan (UI).
The DXC is a state-of-the-art hub that puts customers at an advantage in experiencing world-class innovative banking services and explores the future of banking first-hand.
Provided to put customers at an advantage in carrying out various activities on their own without interacting with anyone, the self-service branch is built with a wide range of phased modern banking facilities.
These include humanoid robots equipped with Video Banking and Artificial Intelligence (AI), taking on the role of friendly branch staff; Teller Cash Recyclers (TCRs); Self-Service Kiosks for non-financial transactions such as account updates; Fast Track (Contactless) ATMs and Interactive Smart Screen to ensure effective and comprehensive consultation with bank sales staff via remote video connection.
