VÚB Bank introduces upgraded digital banking app

Simpler payments, more secure online shopping, and everything important right at your fingertips. VÚB Bank has launched a new version of its VÚB Banking mobile app and simultaneously introduced a modernized internet banking system. It provides clients with a more intuitive, secure, and user-friendly digital banking experience. This innovation is part of the bank's ongoing digital transformation within the Intesa Sanpaolo Group, reflecting VÚB's commitment to continuously improving customer experience by adopting modern technological trends. The new version of the mobile app will be rolled out to clients automatically and progressively over the coming weeks.

The new version of mobile banking brings a modernized design, simpler navigation, and faster access to the services clients use most frequently. Improved payment functionalities, better payment card management, and new security features aim to make everyday use even simpler and more efficient.

However, the launch of the new app represents more than just a technological upgrade. It confirms VÚB Bank´s focus on enabling clients to manage their finances more easily, securely, and with greater confidence. Thanks to the shared digital solutions and innovative expertise of the Intesa Sanpaolo Group, the bank aims to deliver top-tier digital services while maintaining the trust, proximity to clients, and personal touch that remain the foundation of banking.

The solution is built on a shared digital banking platform developed within the Intesa Sanpaolo Group, which currently serves approximately 650,000 VÚB Bank clients. The platform also recently received international recognition when the Group succeeded at the Global BankTech Awards 2026, winning the award for Best Provider of Personalized Communication Solutions for Retail Banking Clients in Central and Eastern Europe.

VÚB has also incorporated client requests into the app, such as 3D Secure authorization for card payments, a unified form for domestic and international payments, scheduled payments, and clearer information on final transaction processing. VÚB Banking has also changed visually in line with the bank's new identity, including a green icon.

"VÚB Bank is the next bank within the Intesa Sanpaolo Group to roll out this new form of digital banking. We focused on simplifying the services clients use every day, while strengthening security and improving the overall user experience," said Marek Ilčin, Head of the Distribution Channels Management Department at VÚB Banka, adding: "Alongside the new design, we have invested significantly in performance, stability, and simplicity to provide clients with an even better experience when using the app."

The new version of the mobile app will be made available to clients automatically and gradually over the coming weeks. At the same time, VÚB Banka has begun a phased rollout of its improved internet banking, which brings a more modern and unified user interface across digital channels.

In the future, the bank plans to further expand its digital capabilities and add new services in areas such as mortgage loans, investments, and investment advice. "We continue to explore ways in which new technologies, including artificial intelligence, can improve customer service and help our experts provide even higher quality advice," Marek Ilčin added. "Technology should contribute to strengthening relationships with clients, while final decisions and expert guidance will always remain in human hands."
