SALT LAKE CITY–POPin Video Banking has announced its merger with BankOn Mobile Video by Financial Town.
The merger, the company said, will bring the financial services industry the first interactive mobile video banking solution for credit unions, banks and other financial service providers.
“Ushering in a new era of self-service, POPin Video Banking Collaboration enables face-to-face video chat and simultaneous collaboration between financial institutions and their customers across all digital channels,” the company said in a statement. “Through this patented technology, on-the-go members can access branch services and complete nearly all banking needs via the web, personal mobile devices, or branch-based video, removing the need for either party to be in a physical branch or office.”
"POPin is the completion of a lifelong career goal to bring video banking to the masses on all digital platforms,” said Gene Pranger, founder and CEO of POPin Video Banking Collaboration in a statement. “Whether implementing video banking for the web, mobile or branch, POPin is the most collaborative platform for any-size financial institution to cost-effectively serve and complete transactions with millennials, new members and SEGs while addressing existing member needs.”
The company said POPin Video Banking Collaboration is being launched by Pranger, creator of the original video banking platform, the Interactive Teller Machine (ITM), pioneered by uGenius, which sold to NCR Corp.
Pranger will serve as CEO of POPin Video Banking Collaboration.
