Hana Bank, "Use Mobile Offering in the Era of Non-Face-to-Face Worship"

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Min-young] Hana Bank announced on the 14th that it has launched the country's first CMS-based 'Hana One Q Mobile Offering' service to support religious organizations struggling due to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

With the increase in online worship services due to COVID-19, existing online offerings were merely simple account transfers, and religious organizations had the inconvenience of having to contact each congregant individually to distinguish the content, type, and donor of the offerings.

The Hana One Q Mobile Offering service can be easily used without installing a separate application (app), through SMS text messages, internet menu screens such as church websites, QR codes, and Near Field Communication (NFC) methods. Users only need to enter a simple 6-digit password.

Not only Hana Bank account holders but also congregants using accounts from other banks can use this service, and congregants can directly register prayer texts on their smartphones.

Religious organizations such as churches can directly register ▲ types of offerings ▲ accounts receiving deposits by offering type ▲ words of gratitude through the CMS system. The aggregated data can be linked to the membership information system and financial management system used by the organization, simplifying year-end tax deduction support for donations and realizing unified data management, significantly reducing the burden of manual cash counting and management tasks.

A Hana Bank official stated, “We will strive to build a digital worship environment in line with social changes toward a cashless society and young religious people familiar with smartphones.”
