This is the first case of a financial specialty store collaboration between a bank and a convenience store by a regional bank, with DGB Daegu Bank leading the way.
Since signing an agreement last April, DGB Daegu Bank and Korea Seven have been promoting innovative retail new business in financial channels. The ‘Seven Eleven Daegu Naedang Station Branch,’ the first store opened after the agreement, is located at Naedang Station on Daegu Subway Line 2.
The Seven Eleven Daegu Naedang Station Branch is equipped with a digital self-service store consisting of kiosks (STM) and automated teller machines (ATM), allowing customers to handle simple banking tasks without visiting the bank.
The services supported through the kiosks include basic ATM functions, new and reissued deposit and withdrawal passbooks, check cards, Happy Pay, OTP issuance, and all kinds of reporting tasks (such as password changes). Except for tasks requiring connection to a video counselor, the machines are available 24 hours a day.
The new store combined with distribution services features a trendy design not applied in existing branches, and a spacious office area is also provided for administrative work.
To celebrate the opening of the Seven Eleven Daegu Naedang Station Branch, an event offering IM Bank character products for signing up for the Seven Savings at the branch will be held until the 15th of next month.
