The joint press release of Ameriabank and CR2 says that  BankWorld will enable Ameriabank to offer cutting-edge banking solutions available 24/7 via the self-service channels including the ATM and Kiosk network as well as the Internet and Mobile Banking channels.

The system has a number of new-to-Armenian banking self-service banking features. The system particularly enables to: automatically match the self-service banking device/remote channels and the product offered to the right client segment, ensuring an individual and relevant service; transform ATMs into personalized service points whereby clients can easily manage all of their bank accounts, submit 
various orders and application forms to the bank as well as execute a number of transactions which were previously restricted to the Internet Banking, in addition to being targeted with personalized offers relevant to the customer's profile; improve the capabilities of the Internet and Mobile Banking channels both for individuals and legal entities, ensuring a wider range of transactions to be deployed at convenience and a modern segment-specific interface; perform person-to-person (P2P) payments via the Internet and Mobile Banking channels as well as other self-service touch points using the 
recipient's phone number or other authentication data. Customers will be able to withdraw the received amount from Ameriabank's ATMs without having to use any payment cards.    
 
The adoption of the BankWorld omnichannel banking platform will be implemented progressively over the next year.
