The process of gathering information about the product and buying it – right down to the payment – becomes seamless, easy, reliable and safe throughout all customer touch points. HOME A WINNING STRATEGY MANAGEMENT SUMMARY THE IMPORTANCE OF AN EASY TO USE USER INTERFACE Consumers appreciate this positive customer experience and therefore expand their business relationship with these companies (see, for e xample, the success of new Apple stores opening nearly every day). At the same time, we see examples of large corporations that have missed out on providing this level of service to their customers and are being replaced by competitors that did understand the important impact of an excellent customer experience. SAFETY & TRANSPARENCY AVAILABILITY & RELIABILITY RESPONSIVE & RELEVANT INFORMATIVE & INTELLIGENT HOW ARE BANKS TACKLING THIS? WINCOR NIXDORF – YOUR PARTNER TOWARDS “SMART BANKING” < previous In a highly transparent and competitive market, customer loyalty needs to be earned every day. While retail banks over the last couple of years have invested in building up their online and mobile presence, the more traditional customer touch points such as branches and self-service networks are by and large not yet part of an integrated customer experience. Banks are missing out on the potential and the natural advantages of their “physical” customer touch points in combination with the trust, relationship and the interactions that customers have through the bank's online or mobile offerings. For years, it was common practice for customers to reach out to their bank, asking for service in the respective channels that were offered. Consumer expectations have made a 180 degree turn. Banks now need to find strategies to reach out to their customers on all possible touch points. next > HOME A WINNING STRATEGY MANAGEMENT SUMMARY THE IMPORTANCE OF AN EASY TO USE USER INTERFACE SAFETY & TRANSPARENCY AVAILABILITY & RELIABILITY RESPONSIVE & RELEVANT INFORMATIVE & INTELLIGENT HOW ARE BANKS TACKLING THIS? WINCOR NIXDORF – YOUR PARTNER TOWARDS “SMART BANKING” < previous What to do? The answer is, first of all, there is no “one size fits all” silver bullet formula that will suit every bank. However, there are certain building blocks that – when combined – will contribute toward an outstanding customer experience.

IT systems need to adopt these attributes across all customer touch points and offer ▪ an intuitive user interface ▪ humanized interactions that provide intelligent information at any given time ▪ a very reliable and safe environment Services need to be customizable and relevant to the consumer in order to provide individual value. All this is driven by a smart and agile infrastructure that is able to gather existing information about customers and their current needs from various information buckets.

WINCOR NIXDORF – YOUR PARTNER TOWARDS “SMART BANKING” < previous next > First of all, customer experience is driven by the ease of use of any given service provided. If it is not easy, the best product is very unlikely to be sold – or, in other words, it is not a good product. This experience will start with the visual elements of the touch points the customer directly interacts with. HOME A WINNING STRATEGY MANAGEMENT SUMMARY THE IMPORTANCE OF AN EASY TO USE USER INTERFACE SAFETY & TRANSPARENCY AVAILABILITY & RELIABILITY RESPONSIVE & RELEVANT From time to time, you still see examples of how IT specialists have squeezed every piece of information onto the one page of an application's startup screen. They have also used as many graphical elements and colors as possible to show what can be done with the latest tools and technology. Consumers are lost and very unlikely to use the service again if they don’t have to. Customer experience is driven by the ease of use. INFORMATIVE & INTELLIGENT HOW ARE BANKS TACKLING THIS?

WINCOR NIXDORF – YOUR PARTNER TOWARDS “SMART BANKING” < previous The text is easy to read and the navigation provides logical steps to the desired result, following a natural pattern of human-machine interaction. In addition, assistance is provided throughout the transactional journey. This concept of humanized interaction has been the innovative driver behind the successful implementation of revolutionary smartphone and tablet user interfaces. Natural multi-touch and gesture-based interaction is enabled by fundamental technologies such as HTML 5.0 and CSS 3.0 and now being widely introduced to the online and mobile channels. Direct voice-based interactions could also be added. “SIRI Banking” would be a killer app in terms of integrating voice recognition and voice-based control wherever applicable. next > But looking at the current experience users have with their banking channel, one could argue that “a chain is only as strong as its weakest link”. Hence, banks won’t get a good overall customer experience if they don’t provide it in a consistent way across all channels. HOME A WINNING STRATEGY MANAGEMENT SUMMARY THE IMPORTANCE OF AN EASY TO USE USER INTERFACE SAFETY & TRANSPARENCY AVAILABILITY & RELIABILITY RESPONSIVE & RELEVANT INFORMATIVE & INTELLIGENT HOW ARE BANKS TACKLING THIS? WINCOR NIXDORF – YOUR PARTNER TOWARDS “SMART BANKING” < previous A first step toward implementing a consistent user experience can be achieved by separating the user interface design and transaction flow from the business logic. This step-by-step approach is the key to implementing these concepts successfully and quickly in the more traditional ATM, self-service and branch channels. With the design of the user interface flow now being independent from the traditional ATM host and the traditional protocol, banks can implement the same HTML 5.0 templates across all channels. next > This approach has a bigger services-oriented architecture blue print in mind. Web services technologies now enable banks to integrate existing or new services into their channels in a very fast and smart way. For example, interactions with consumers are possible at any time via chat or interactive video services because these services can now also be easily integrated into the ATM or branch channel by reusing the same web-based technology stack. HOME A WINNING STRATEGY MANAGEMENT SUMMARY THE IMPORTANCE OF AN EASY TO USE USER INTERFACE SAFETY & TRANSPARENCY AVAILABILITY & RELIABILITY RESPONSIVE & RELEVANT INFORMATIVE & INTELLIGENT HOW ARE BANKS TACKLING THIS? WINCOR NIXDORF – YOUR PARTNER TOWARDS “SMART BANKING” < previous When customers have questions or are stuck with a cash or check deposit transaction, they simply have to press a button to receive assistance – even in remote locations. This is made possible by the smart combination of existing and new technologies in a web services architecture. The bank can now not only be reached by the customer at any time and via any channel, but can also assist the customer in any given situation using relevant and context-based interaction by combining the information and capabilities of these services. This can be achieved via remote control and assistance within a self-service session, or through a video consulting session for a more complex financial product, initiated by the customer from a tablet computer at home. The goal of all this is to create an easy-to-use, interactive omnichannel customer experience at any customer touch point. next > Safety & Transparency Ease of use is, as described, one of the most obvious and recognizable e lements of a customer's journey in dealing with his bank. However, it is not the only one: Customers will always compare convenience and security.

WINCOR NIXDORF – YOUR PARTNER TOWARDS “SMART BANKING” < previous When dealing with financial assets and the tokens to access them, bank customers have high demands, both in terms of the real and perceived level of security around their personal information, accounts and assets, which must be met for them to feel comfortable with any banking service. These demands are particularly high when banking customers transmit data or assets in any shape or form to their bank or any other service provider to conduct a financial transaction. Therefore, banks must protect customer touch points in a way that gives the consumer the confidence and trust needed around financial transactions that only a bank can provide. Although omnichannel customer experience is compelling, banks have to be sure to address security aspects accordingly. The physical touch points can be protected by new advanced security solutions. The target is to prevent unauthorized interaction with ATMs and the computer systems attached by any means. This starts with the access protection and hardening of the operating system and the encryption of the hard disk. But it also includes new intelligent protection mechanisms against the intrusion of malware or skimming attacks on the customer's card and account data. Instead of a reactive, pattern-based scanning process against viruses and trojans, which requires regular updates and maintenance, new systems use an active white list-based approach to block any interaction with the system. next > Intelligent correlation of data enables banks to detect attack patterns and protect their customers proactively – which they will value. HOME A WINNING STRATEGY MANAGEMENT SUMMARY THE IMPORTANCE OF AN EASY TO USE USER INTERFACE SAFETY & TRANSPARENCY AVAILABILITY & RELIABILITY RESPONSIVE & RELEVANT INFORMATIVE & INTELLIGENT HOW ARE BANKS TACKLING THIS? WINCOR NIXDORF – YOUR PARTNER TOWARDS “SMART BANKING” < previous Intelligent video surveillance of the ATM surface detects any manipulation of the hardware, sends alarms and closes down operation in case of any severe physical attack. In addition, video surveillance of the consumer and the area around the ATM can be correlated to the ATM events. This type of information can be gathered by an intelligent monitoring system and transmitted together with the data from an interactive card fraud detection system to a fraud correlation engine. This new fraud correlation engine allows the bank to correlate any status information and events from the hardware, software and card-based transactions to automatically detect attack patterns and execute defined countermeasures – or reduce false fraud alarms. Furthermore, this intelligent fraud correlation engine also provides customers with a new level of transparency for financial transactions. It enables customers to individually set their specific level of security thresholds and information with regard to any financial transaction. For example, you can receive alerts on your mobile phone whenever your credit card is used abroad or has been used for card not present transactions or for purchases reaching a specified limit. next > Availability & Reliability > Video Tablet Assisted Solution > Video The Smart Way to Cash > Video Flexible User Interface HOME A WINNING STRATEGY MANAGEMENT SUMMARY THE IMPORTANCE OF AN EASY TO USE USER INTERFACE The above-mentioned intelligence in both the monitoring and fraud surveillance of customer touch points also allows attack-related down-time to be minimized. Uptime and availability naturally add to a positive customer experience. SAFETY & TRANSPARENCY AVAILABILITY & RELIABILITY RESPONSIVE & RELEVANT INFORMATIVE & INTELLIGENT HOW ARE BANKS TACKLING THIS? WINCOR NIXDORF – YOUR PARTNER TOWARDS “SMART BANKING” < previous When customers go to an ATM, they expect the device to be up and running for quick and easy access. Failure of these basic services quickly turns into a high degree of dissatisfaction. Today, modern monitoring systems can analyze every hardware and software event on the ATM or in the branch. This allows the bank to detect a problem and decide if it is possible to keep the device in ser- vice, maybe with reduced functionality, and in the meantime initiate the remote repair of the problem. Self-healing and remote repair are the key words here. Only if those measures don’t succeed will a technician be dispatched. Based on the detailed information of the problem that has been gathered, the right software fix or spare part is at hand to solve the problem on the first attempt. But this should only be the exception. The power of an intelligent monitoring system comes into play even earlier in the process. Because of the detailed information of the system at hand, predictive maintenance can be performed automatically from the central monitoring site. This has a significant positive influence on the uptime of the overall network and therefore the customer's perception of availability of the bank's services. Since availability and reliability are crucial for customer acceptance, self-healing, remote repair and proactive maintenance become even more important. next > HOME A WINNING STRATEGY MANAGEMENT SUMMARY THE IMPORTANCE OF AN EASY TO USE USER INTERFACE SAFETY & TRANSPARENCY AVAILABILITY & RELIABILITY RESPONSIVE & RELEVANT INFORMATIVE & INTELLIGENT HOW ARE BANKS TACKLING THIS? WINCOR NIXDORF – YOUR PARTNER TOWARDS “SMART BANKING” < previous The decades of experience in uptime management and the operation of self-service devices manifested and implemented in modern web services-based solutions can now also be leveraged to other banking channels. Self-service solutions need to be almost fail-proof because, by nature, they run in an unattended environment. Over the past decade, web services technology has proven itself to be the backbone of the largest self- service networks in banking – driving hundreds of t housands of devices from every vendor at the highest availability and showing an undisputed level of resilience and reliability. Therefore, the stability and robustness of a 24/7 self-service operations environment that are now being brought to the branch and modern channels such as the mobile device and interactive video teller services are further adding to the reliability of an omnichannel customer experience. Through this backbone, customers can truly interact with their bank from any touch point at any time, both safely and reliably. next > Responsive & Relevant HOME A WINNING STRATEGY MANAGEMENT SUMMARY THE IMPORTANCE OF AN EASY TO USE USER INTERFACE The assessment of customers with regard to their experience with the bank also includes the responsiveness across all touch points. How can banks achieve this fast and context-based relevant interaction? SAFETY & TRANSPARENCY AVAILABILITY & RELIABILITY RESPONSIVE & RELEVANT INFORMATIVE & INTELLIGENT In order to connect many touch points in the most effective way, the concept of a central information hub has proven to be very successful. Needless to say, within the financial services industry, a central information hub around financial data requires special security measures. Therefore, the concept of the central information hub has been further developed into the implementation of a “transaction safe”. This transaction safe allows the initiation and staging of any financial transaction from any given touch point and the finalization of the transaction in the channel of choice. Combined with the right selfservice devices, it also provides full capability when it comes to the interaction with and delivery of physical tokens such as cash or checks.

Customers using a smartphone, for instance, can not only manage their usual financial transactions such as transfers in that single channel but now also use their mobile device as an interface to ATM services. They can stage a withdrawal, deposit or cash transfer while they are on their way to bank, and receive a secure token on their device. The pre-authorized transaction is meanwhile stored in the transaction safe and released upon presentation of the secure token at a device that can carry out the physical transaction. The token can be transmitted by different means; 2D barcode, NFC or BLE are just some technical examples of this transmission. The whole transaction is simple, fast and convenient.

Customers that are stuck in a more complex deposit transaction or requesting a high-volume withdrawal can now experience the concept of individual assistance in their self-service transaction. A branch employee will get a notification, e.g. at his tablet computer, about any transaction happening in the branch. By looking into the transaction safe, he can pick up the transaction, approve it and, if necessary, drive the device d irectly from the tablet in order to finalize the consumer session. During this assisted self-service transaction, he can review the customer and account relationship, see whether the customer has responded to direct marketing messages and, if appropriate, engage the customer in a consultative sales conversation or make an appointment for a follow-up.

WINCOR NIXDORF – YOUR PARTNER TOWARDS “SMART BANKING” < previous next > Instead of waiting in line for the next available teller, customers can interact quickly and easily with dedicated in-branch self-service devices without losing the personal interaction with their banker and, if necessary, receive help on the spot. HOME A WINNING STRATEGY MANAGEMENT SUMMARY THE IMPORTANCE OF AN EASY TO USE USER INTERFACE SAFETY & TRANSPARENCY AVAILABILITY & RELIABILITY RESPONSIVE & RELEVANT This makes assisted self-service an easy, responsive and relevant experience. On top of this, the dashboard that the banker sees on his tablet computer gives a wealth of information about the customer. The banker therefore has the necessary information about the customer's personal financial situation, the products that the customer has with the bank and also which marketing messages he responded to on the various channels – a 360 degree view of the customer relationship. As a result, any conversation with the customer is truly relevant and therefore successful and pleasant for both the bank and the customer. Nothing is more annoying for a customer than being bombarded with information and requests that are not relevant to his current needs and situation in life.

WINCOR NIXDORF – YOUR PARTNER TOWARDS “SMART BANKING” < previous In most cases, the relevance for the consumer is only achieved by the intelligent correlation of information from various back-end systems with patterns around the customer's personal interests and preferences. However, that information needs to be transported to the customer in a suitable way in order to be truly informative and therefore relevant. Although customers already have some experience with customized services in the online world, this kind of personalized service is new for most customers in the physical channel. In the online world, customers can define their preferences in a personal profile. Intelligent analysis of customer transactions can add to the settings in the online profile. As a result, customers are able to have a personal banking experience in their individual settings under “My Bank”. next > Again, web services technology in the back using the transaction safe as an information hub and HTML in the front are the technical enablers for the dynamic behavior of such a system. With this now being available both in self-service and in the branch, a true end-to-end omnichannel customer experience can be achieved. HOME A WINNING STRATEGY MANAGEMENT SUMMARY THE IMPORTANCE OF AN EASY TO USE USER INTERFACE SAFETY & TRANSPARENCY Consumers can now define their personal preferences for every channel in their profile, ranging from default settings for fast cash, denominations and preferred language to the customizing of every button on the “My ATM” screen. This profile follows the customer, since it is stored centrally. Customers therefore get their individual ATM experience on every device of the bank.

WINCOR NIXDORF – YOUR PARTNER TOWARDS “SMART BANKING” < previous > Video Tablet Assisted Solution > Video The Smart Way to Cash > Video Flexible User Interface In the same way, banks can use the concept of profiles to distribute new functionalities to specific ATMs or groups of ATMs. A new transaction is configured on the server. By assigning this functionality to an ATM profile, this is instantly available to the customer. These can be new functions such as a widget showing a personal financial dashboard on the main screen based on personal settings in the customer profile or the option of a new ATM transaction. next > Personal preferences, however, are far from being limited to user interface settings. All web services that deliver customer-relevant information can be configured in a personalized way. For example, this is used for personal security and fraud protection settings. Customers can define in their profile if and when they want to receive alerts or notifications about any card- and account-based transaction, making them feel more protected.

WINCOR NIXDORF – YOUR PARTNER TOWARDS “SMART BANKING” < previous In all of this, “intelligence” is the key word. Using the various channels to deliver product and direct marketing messages to the customer has been common practice for quite some time. Successful direct marketing approaches are easy to manage by the bank staff, can directly interact with the big data from the corporate IT infrastructure and are able to deliver personalized context-based content across all channels. With these attributes as a basis, consumer interaction is vitally important. But only by analyzing customer reactions across all channels can banks be sure to deliver relevant and meaningful offerings to their clients. Big data will be the enabler and one of the sources for the smart delivery frameworks and information hubs that are now available. All this data contributes to the above-mentioned 360 degree view of the customer, based on the information collected from various back-office sources. next > How are banks tackling this?

In many cases, banks start this process by tackling the transition in layers. First comes the design of a blueprint of the bank’s target architecture that includes an open multi-vendor software approach based on standard web technology. With this multi-vendor platform, banks can go for quick wins, such as a new HTML 5.0-based user interface that is the enabling technology for dynamic behavior toward the customer. Touch screens on the ATM then allow for the swipe- and gesture-based interaction that customers are used to from their tablet computers.

In many cases, this goes hand in hand with a repositioning and a new profile of the retail bank toward their customers and the market. In some cases, it also includes the reshaping and transformation of entire delivery channels, including the branch channel. next > Wincor Nixdorf – your partner for “Smart Banking” HOME A WINNING STRATEGY MANAGEMENT SUMMARY THE IMPORTANCE OF AN EASY TO USE USER INTERFACE SAFETY & TRANSPARENCY AVAILABILITY & RELIABILITY RESPONSIVE & RELEVANT INFORMATIVE & INTELLIGENT HOW ARE BANKS TACKLING THIS?

Nowadays, this also includes the integration of mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets into the customer journey. However, we see the retail banking industry going through a major transition from the traditional processes in consumer interaction toward a new way of context-driven Smart Banking. Providing banking services that are focused on every individual customer, that are informative, relevant and context-based, is only the first step. Simplicity and ease of use will go a long way. Services should be so intuitive that customers don’t need to think about “how” to use them. We have all learned a lot from companies such as Apple, having demonstrated how to make smartphones really smart … We need to further humanize the interaction between IT and our customers. Buzzwords are talking interactive services, “Siri Banking”, and having easy access to financial experts at any time. Video technology will support this trend. Biometry will be back to make access to secure services much easier. And last but not least, the correlation of information (big data), events and processes across all channels will make the difference.
