Bank of Valletta has launched a new web portal which is set to act as an increasingly important customer touchpoint. The portal was deve-loped by Infusion Solutions, a company that blends effective web design with dynamic web programming.
For the first time, customers will be able to interact with the bank online. Visitors can personalise their experience by creating a profile and customising features such as Quicklinks, registering for events and commenting on articles and news items. The portal also integrates with the key social media platforms in which BOV participates.
The site has also been built to learn individual user trends and patterns and then put forward the most relevant information or functionality for that particular user. Over the coming weeks, more innovative functionalities will be rolled out.
“Our web portal was designed with the objective of providing a convenient, dynamic and interactive channel,” said Charles Borg, CEO at Bank of Valletta. “Our goal was to create a space where a customer could enquire about banking at his own pace and in his own words. This site is all about our customer first and foremost,” explained Mr Borg.

GasanMamo gives young drivers 65% off insurance
GasanMamo Insurance is launching a new scheme which will give those in the 18-to-24 age bracket an instant 65 per cent discount on their car insurance while earning their own no-claims discount from day one.
“We know how difficult it is for younger people to get insured and how most issue the policy in a parent’s name so that they can benefit from their no-claims discount and pay a cheaper premium,” said Francis Valletta, general manager at GasanMamo Insurance.
The drivers will qualify for the discount by simply installing a telematics device, which records the speed and distance covered by the vehicle. This information will be used to score driving performance and all a driver needs to do is to maintain a healthy score by driving cautiously. The current score can be accessed by the driver at any point in time via a website, and the driver will also be alerted when points are deducted.
