What does Digital Banking mean?
Digital Banking is the automation of traditional banking services. It allows bank customers to access banking products and services using a gadget or an online platform.
Digital Banking is convenient and often offers more options and features than traditional banking methods, making it a popular choice for many people.


Digital cards
They can be easily accessed through a digital banking app, and users do not need to carry a physical card with them. Additionally, digital cards may offer enhanced security features, such as the ability to lock or disable the card if it is lost or stolen.

Aadhaar Enabled Payment Systems (AEPS)
AEPS is a digital payment system that allows users to conduct financial transactions using their Aadhaar number (a unique identification number issued by the Government of India to every individual resident of India) and biometric data.

Unified Payments Interface (UPI)
UPI is a digital payment system that allows users to make and receive payments instantly and securely using their mobile phones. It is an open-source platform that is owned and operated by the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI).

Mobile wallets
Digital wallets have made it easier for users to make payments and manage their finances by eliminating the need to remember card PINs, CVV details, and carry cash. Instead, users can store their bank account and card credentials in their digital wallet and easily add funds and make payments to other merchants with similar applications.

PoS terminals
PoS machines are portable devices that are used to process card payments in physical retail locations, such as supermarkets and gas stations. They are equipped with a card reader that allows them to read and authorize card payments. In recent years, virtual and mobile PoS terminals have also become available, which use the NFC feature on people's mobile phones and web-based applications to initiate payments.

Internet and mobile banking
Commonly known as e-banking, this refers to obtaining certain banking services over the internet. These services may include fund transfers, opening and closing accounts, and other core banking functions.
Some types of Digital Banking

Online Banking vs Digital Banking
Online banking: Refers to the everyday basic elements of checking balances, reviewing transactions, and transferring funds, which is the core operation of the bank that has been shifted to an online presence.
Digital banking:This is a broader term that refers to the use of a variety of electronic channels and technologies to access financial services and perform financial transactions. Digital Banking makes the physical presence of a bank redundant for its customers so that they can handle all banking operations from their place of convenience.

What's next for Digital Banking

Banking as a service and Embedded Finance
Embedded finance (EmFi) refers to the integration of financial services such as lending, payment processing, or insurance into non-financial business infrastructures, without the need for traditional financial institutions to be involved.

Banking as a platform
BaaP allows companies to leverage the capabilities of financial institutions to create and offer their own financial products and services, without the need to build and maintain their own banking infrastructure. This can help companies to enter the financial services industry more quickly and efficiently, and can also provide a new revenue stream for financial institutions.

Open banking and open finance
The use of open APIs enables the sharing of financial data and services not just between financial institutions and third parties, but also among individuals and organizations in the broader economy. Open finance aims to create a more open, inclusive, and innovative financial system by enabling the sharing of financial data and services among a wide range of stakeholders.

Social banking
For banks of all sizes, it is important to find ways to build and foster relationships with customers in order to remain competitive. One way banks are doing this is by using social media to connect with their customers and create a sense of community. Some banks are taking this a step further by developing their own social banking platforms, which encourage a human connection between the bank and its customers. By creating a customer community on these social platforms, banks can build stronger relationships with their customers and provide them with a more personalized banking experience.
