Credit Union Holds Event for "Hands-on" Biometric Authentication Service Users

Cumulative Number of Subscribers Surpasses 350,000

The National Credit Union Federation of Korea announced on the 18th that it will hold an event for new subscribers and outstanding users of the Credit Union's "Hands-on (ON)" service.

The Hands-on service event will run from today until June 30. During the event period, the two customers with the highest number of days using the Hands-on service will each receive an iPad Pro 13 and an Apple Watch 11 as prizes.

In addition, 100 customers who newly subscribe to the Hands-on service at Credit Union branches during the event period will be selected by lottery to receive a Shinsegae mobile gift certificate worth 10,000 won.

To participate in the event, customers must agree to the collection, use, and provision of their personal (credit) information (including product and service information).

The Credit Union Hands-on service is the first biometric authentication-based financial service introduced in the cooperative financial sector. By registering their biometric information (palm veins) with the Credit Union, users can conveniently handle financial transactions at Credit Union branches and ATMs nationwide without a bankbook, seal, or ID.

At branches, customers can withdraw and terminate savings and installment savings accounts, reissue bankbooks, and report account incidents. At ATMs equipped with biosensors, customers can deposit and withdraw funds, transfer money, and pay insurance premiums. Since its launch in September 2020, the cumulative number of Hands-on service subscribers has surpassed 350,000.

A representative from the National Credit Union Federation of Korea stated, "We will continue to expand the scope of the Hands-on service so that our customers can use Credit Union services more conveniently."
