How the Personal Teller Machine Fits into the Omni-Channel Strategy

The Need for the Personal Teller Machine

There are 5 ways that customers interact with their financial institutions: online, mobile, ATM, call center, and branch. As users have flocked to online and mobile, financial institutions have poured money and resources to get the digital experience right, leaving branches to run as they have for 30 years. This is mostly accounted for with the advancements of online banking capabilities and customer preference. However, customers do want a branch nearby when they need it, which may only be a few times a year. Even so, it’s important to make sure that when they come, they are helped as quickly and efficiently as possible. If a customer is forced to wait for a long time and their need isn’t addressed appropriately, a bad branch experience can easily turn into a lost customer. Enter the Personal Teller Machine.
