Kuwait City, Nov 25: Kuwait Finance House (KFH) remains committed to delivering innovative digital banking services, surpassing customer expectations, and meeting their aspirations. As part of this commitment, KFH has rolled out a cutting-edge paperless service that enables new customers to instantly open bank accounts.

This exclusive service is available for customers through the D-POS mobile device, which is tailored to facilitate immediate bank account opening. This transformative initiative is the result of a fruitful collaboration between KFH and K.A.S Fintech company, specializing in digital transformation solutions.

To get started, customers can insert their civil ID into the D-POS device, electronically sign on its screen, and follow simple and easy steps. From there, they will have a fully verified and ready-to-use bank account. Upon completion, customers will receive a notification including the IBAN number along with a printable receipt for record-keeping purposes.

KFH Manager of E-Channels and Cash Management Services, Meshal Mandani, said that the new service affirms KFH’s commitment to adopting the latest trends in financial technology services to offer the best banking experience for customers within the highest efficiency and quality standards.

“KFH had already launched the instant card issuance service, using Hybrid Solution as the first bank in Kuwait. Hence, customers can instantly issue their cards following the successful bank opening using a D-POS device. Customers can also enjoy KFH’s full banking services by registering in KFHonline,” Mandani said.

“In line with KFH’s slogan, ‘New Generation of Easy Banking Services,’ the new service complements the paperless banking efforts (instant card issuance, immediate bank account opening, KFHonline services). It is also in line with the sustainability and environment preservation principles by shifting to an all-digital banking operation,” he added.

He explained that D-POS devices will be available in all customers’ touchpoints, direct sales locations, KFH Zone in Winter Wonderland, in addition to KFH branches, making the day-to-day banking procedures easier and faster for customers and employees.

He pointed out that KFH customers can instantly have banking cards issued, including credit and prepaid cards, through various ways; either via self-service using the civil ID or by using their smartphones and the QR code.
