The National Bank of Greece (NBG) has selected the C-nario Messenger digital signage platform for its new, pioneering i-bank concept store. Panou, a Greek company specialising in audiovisual equipment and projects, served as the prime contractor and project designer and integrator.
Located in Athens, the NBG i-bank store is a multi-purpose electronic banking venue that presents the entire range of i-bank services, such as Internet banking, phone banking, mobile banking and ATM. Visitors have the opportunity to explore, either unassisted or with the support of the specialised i-bank store team, the performance of their daily banking transactions in a fast and simple way. This is the first of NBG’s three concept stores. The other two will be established in Thessaloniki.@page_break@
The digital signage network includes 16 screens (including three touch screens) and five projectors. The displays show educational and promotional videos about NBG’s i-banking services, as well as entertaining content, creating an exciting atmosphere. Twelve of the screens are arranged in a row at portrait orientation, enabling the display of synchronised content on multiple screens, as a single, fully integrated, homogeneous display element, resulting in an amazing and innovative visual effect.
The touch screens, located in a special interactive area, enable visitors to experience i-banking services and play interactive games directly on the screens. Five projectors have been installed: three project digital content on screens suspended from the ceiling, and two project on the floor at the entrance.
“The innovative digital signage displays help the NBG i-bank store demonstrate the concept and possibilities of e-banking, while creating a high impact and unique customer experience,” said Ioanna Katzilieri, assistant general manager retail banking, NBG. “The i-bank store is a key component in NBG’s initiative to enhance digital literacy in Greece, further positioning the bank as a leader in innovation and modern banking services.”@page_break@
“Digital signage has become an important element in modern banking, allowing a more effective customer experience and communication,” said Tamir Ginat, C-nario’s CEO. “It is only natural that digital signage has been chosen by NBG as a primary means to raise public awareness to the tremendous potential and benefits of e-banking.”
