Nigerians will certainly testify to the stress that comes with solving problems at various physical bank branches.

A typical Nigerian will always pray never to have problems with the bank, because of the unpleasant conditions associated with it.

In addition, due to technological advances, a better way to resolve problems in physical banks is to ensure a world-class customer-bank experience through digital banking.

What are digital banks?

Digital banks are banks that function fully over the Internet without the development of physical infrastructure and facilities.

They need not have any physical branch, since all their transactions are done with ease on the internet.

However, digital banks should not be mistaken for online banks, as online banks developed by banks with physical branches provide a simple service for the customers to perform easy transactions without going, while the digital banking system is developed to run various transactions to ensure the optimum customer experience.

In other words, you just have to install the digital banking app on your phone and have a better banking experience if going to the physical banks is tiring.
