    Access Bank Plc has commissioned and empowered over 50,000 Closa agents to provide financial services to customers across Nigeria.

    According to the bank, the move is informed by the need to drive and lead in terms of innovation by leveraging technology to deliver affordable and convenient banking services to the unbanked and underbanked segment of the society.

    “As a bank driven by innovation, we must deliver better outcomes for customers in terms of speed, security and service in order to enhance customer experience in all the locations that we operate. With the recent mapping of our Closa Agents, customers and non-customers of the Bank who intend to travel to different parts of the country can now access financial services from a Closa agent near them, by simply searching for “Access Closa Agent” on Google Map instead of walking long distances in search of a branch.”

We are committed to being at the forefront of providing digital financial services in Nigeria,” Tolulope said.
