Guaranty Trust Bank Plc has once again raised the service bar for
African Financial Institutions by upgrading its Social Banking
offering on Facebook to accommodate Instant GTBank Account Opening.
With this upgrade, prospective customers of the foremost Bank can open
accounts and immediately get their account numbers while on Facebook,
without having to visit any GTBank branch.
Commenting on the new offering, which went live recently, the Managing
Director/CEO of Guaranty Trust Bank Plc, Segun Agbaje, said the
upgrade will make it more convenient for people to commence banking
relationships with the Bank.
Agbaje explained that all people have to do while on Facebook is fill
the account opening form, upload their passport photograph and
signature mandate and immediately get their account number.
GTBank Social Banking is a unique offering pioneered by the Bank
earlier in the year that allows people open GTBank Accounts, make
Account Balance Enquiries, perform Money Transfers and purchase
Airtime on Facebook.
The Bank remains the leading Nigerian financial services provider in
the social media space with over 1.3 million followers on Facebook
alone, the largest following for any Nigerian company.
With Social Banking, Guaranty Trust Bank Plc has successfully
introduced a new and effective platform through which its customers
can get real-time customer service and perform transactions quickly,
safely and at their convenience. According to Agbaje, the banking
requirements of today’s customers necessitates a high degree of
flexibility, which is why GTBank is instituting value adding channels
on social and other platforms that allow people bank 24/7.
Guaranty Trust Bank Plc was established in 1990 and has within the
last 23 years come to be recognized as one of the most innovative and
service focused banks in Nigeria.
The Bank, which was recently conferred with the 2013 African Bank of
the Year Award by African Banker Magazine, has banking subsidiaries in
Cote D’Ivoire, the Gambia, Ghana, Liberia, Sierra Leone, the United
Kingdom and has concluded the purchase of a 70 per cent equity stake
in Fina Bank that will see its operations spread to Kenya, Uganda and
Rwanda.
