In its bid to take its service standard to a new level, UnityBank Plc, has deployed ATM services at its stand at the on-going Abuja International Trade Fair.
The bank's Head of Corporate Affairs, Mr. Bature Mamman-Da, said that: as a major exhibitor at the fair, we expect a very massive turnout of our existing and potential customers. We have added an ATM to our service offerings at the trade fair ground in order to accommodate the expected crowds, as well as to provide ease and comfort for themi.

Mamman-Da also disclosed that the bank will showcase its consumer credit product tagged, Unity P.A.Y.S., its enterprise promotion product, Unity BeTA, as well as its special product on holy pilgrimages, Unity Holy Trip.

He added that, "We shall also showcase our Unity e-Success, a bouquet of various e-banking products and services, aimed at simplifying banking processes for the ordinary man in the street." Among these e-banking products are: e-pay, internet banking, transaction alert, and webschool.

The e-pay product enables UnityBank to handle automatic payment to contractors on behalf of merchants in such a way that authorized account officers from the merchants, can initiate, authorize and effect payment directly into their contractors account irrespective of which bank the account is domiciled.

The internet banking enables existing and potential corporate or retail customers of the bank, who have internet connectivity at home or in the office, to easily sign up for this value added service to enable them access their accounts online. The service helps customers to monitor their account balances, place their request for cheque books, etc.

The transaction alert sends an instant message into mobile phone handset or e-mail address of customers who register for such a service with UnityBank. This helps customers to monitor their account balances, every time a withdrawal or deposit is made to such an account.

Similarly, customers and members of the general public who visit the UnityBank Stand can avail themselves of SMS/telephone banking services.
The webschool on the other hand enables students to pay their school fees and conclude their often stressful registration exercise online within the comfort of their homes. Among the other benefits of this product are its cost effectiveness and its ability to enable parents to access the bank accounts of their wards for easy monitoring.

Mamman-Da said that, "These e-products were developed and successfully deployed by Unity Bank to provide the most competitive and cost-effective banking services to retail and other categories of customers of the bank throughout the federation."

Speaking on behalf of the Management of the bank, Mamman-Da added, "We are very proud to associate strongly with the continued success of the Abuja International Trade Fair as an important platform to promote the economic development of the FCT in particular and the country in general."
