Digital Banker Africa, the continent’s premier, magazine and
website organizes the Digital Banker Africa Awards to celebrate organisations
from across Africa that have stood out from amongst their peers with
outstanding innovation, infrastructure and development along with the use of
pioneering technology to support their business and customers.
The award’s judging panel comprises professionals with a
combined experience of over 110 years of financial and business journalism
experience, and is supported by a team of researchers who have ensured that the
award winners are the most deserving in their category.
Last month, Africa’s first fully digital bank, ALAT by Wema,
was awarded the ‘Most Outstanding Digital Bank Brand of the Year Award’ at the
2021 Brandcom Awards, which honours brands, agencies, and notable individuals
in the brands and marketing communications industry who have distinguished
themselves with tangible and laudable impact.
This latest award further recognises Wema Bank’s consistent
innovativeness in delivering value to its stakeholders, enabling its customers
to bank with ease and live their desired lifestyles.
Commenting on the award, the Managing Director/CEO, Wema
Bank, Ademola Adebise, said it attests to the bank’s digital growth and
confirmation of its position as a leading innovative financial institution.
“We are grateful for this honour recognising our relentless
effort in becoming Nigeria’s leading innovative digital bank. We dedicate this
to all our customers who trust us and have continuously made us and our
game-changing digital bank, ALAT their first choice,” he said.
He said that the award would further motivate Wema Bank to
do more in the service of its customers. “This recognition serves as an
encouragement for us to continue to build on our successes and invest more in
our product offerings. We are committed to improving the lives of our customers
in every way, enabling them to make it through each day in the best and easiest
way possible with our services,” Adebise said.
The Bank’s passion to solidify its position as a leader in
the digital banking space has seen it build a robust portfolio of digital
solutions tailored to meet a diverse pool of customers and tailor-made to suit
the dynamic lifestyles of students, budding entrepreneurs and young
professionals.
The Bank was the first to pioneer card control, a solution
that allows customers secure their payment cards by locking and unlocking their
cards directly from their mobile phones, also offering USSD Banking through its
*945# platform.
These achievements and solutions have earned the bank
several other accolades including Excellence in Branchless Banking, Digital
Banking Platform of the Year and Best and Innovative Digital Solution.
