ATB Financial Launches its Brightside app powered by Technisys’s Cyberbank Next-Gen Core and Digital banking platform
Technisys, the company behind next-gen digital banking platform Cyberbank, is powering Canada’s newest digital banking app – Brightside by ATB Financial. The digital-only banking app has been designed to offer customers a way to start spending and saving without switching banks since it connects directly to wherever customers already do their day-to-day banking. Cyberbank has also enabled Brightside to give customers the ability to order and activate a spend card, as well as set up savings features like ‘Round Ups’ and ‘Save Automagically,’ all within the app on their phone.
John Tarnowski, executive vice president at ATB Financial said: “With Brightside, we’ve created a seamless digital experience so Albertans can have more time to focus on the things they love and save at the same time. It takes just a few minutes to get started—people can sign up for an account with a selfie, order a spend card and set up saving features.”
