Wema Bank’s recent product launches

Commercial financial institution Wema Bank provides its customers and users with several solutions and services, which focus on multiple industry areas, such as personal tools, business products, and SMEs-designed solutions. 

The Nigeria-based bank launched in May 2023 an upgraded version of its corporate digital banking application, ALAT

ALAT for Business 2.0. was launched back on the 3rd of May 2023, during the bank’s Digital Week activities which took place as a celebration of Wema Bank’s anniversary. The upgraded service was built in order to provide customers with a seamless and secure experience while incorporating enhanced security and privacy features as well. 

The application brought new products and tools to Wema Bank’s client base, providing them with the possibility to access their accounts from any device. The layout was designed to be user-friendly and engaging, which made the banking solutions more efficient and safer for companies and their customers. 

ALAT for Business 2.0. has an onboarding feature that was built to make the process of opening and managing an account faster and easier for their clients and firms. It was made available in multiple app stores, and currently includes in its suite of services interbank and interbank transfer products, access to stamped e-statements, the possibility to bulk transfers to over 6,000 accounts, as well as multiple user accessibility. 

The application was set to be further developed in the near future, as Wema Bank focused on incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) tools and multi-language capabilities in the Diaspora marketplace. In addition, the institution planned to make improvements to its offshore banking offerings as well.
