DFCC Bank, one of Sri Lanka’s leading full-service commercial banks and an advocate for digital banking and digital empowerment, has taken an innovative step to promote resilience and adaptability in the face of changing times by rolling out a Monthly E-Calendar for 2023. This initiative is not only a valuable tool for customers to stay informed about important updates and new products and services offered by the bank, but also an empowering one, providing them with the digital tools necessary to navigate a world in transformation.
The new monthly E-Calendar was sent to the DFCC customer base on the 1st of January and February via and SMS and will be sent at the beginning of each month going forward. The E-calendar will include a link to an interactive calendar with up-to-date information on DFCC Card offers and other information relevant to that month. This is another example of DFCC Bank’s commitment to providing convenient and user-friendly digital banking solutions to its customers.
Commenting on the initiative, Nilmini Gunaratne- Vice President- Marketing and Sustainability at DFCC Bank PLC said, “The advancement of digital technology and the growing irrelevance of paper have been progressing at an unprecedented pace over the past few years. Information today is dynamic, plus, guided by our sustainability strategy, we are committed to reducing our reliance on paper, in our quest to minimize our impact on the environment. Therefore, this year, we have launched an innovative and interactive E-Calendar, which will go out to customers in the form of a link in an SMS. This will allow customers to also access executive information, while giving us an opportunity to connect with customers on an ongoing basis each month and communicate various offers and opportunities with regard to the Bank’s range of products and services during the month.”
