As noted on its official website, the bank claims to have a very quick registration process. It reportedly allows new users to complete a digital or e-KYC (Know Your Customer) process in minutes right on their smartphone. There’s also no need to wait in long lines at physical branches and there’s also no complicated paperwork to complete, the digital bank’s management claims.
Home to 98 million people, 70% of whom are under the age of 35, Vietnam’s population is young, dynamic and quick to adopt innovative tech. The country’s Gen Z population is expected to grow to 15 million by 2025 – a substantial number of future tech-native banking customers who prefer to do everything on the go.
