When choosing a bank, users pay close attention to the quality and functionality of the banking apps. We want to shop, pay our utility bills, send, and receive money within seconds, all directly from our mobile devices. Poland is among countries with the most active app users.

The 2023 TOP 3:

Fast-progressing digitalisation of life in the face of lockdown conditions exceeded the interest in solutions and digital banking apps across Europe. Poland has also quickly adjusted to pandemic-related restrictions. That was when ITDS Clients operating in the financial industry doubled the capital expenditure in the offered remote services to make managing personal finances available to clients in a safe, quick, and convenient way.

ITDS treats providing IT engineer outsourcing services to one of the strongest and fastest growing financial brands in Poland as a huge success and a testament to our teams’ effectiveness and professionalism. We are proud of the fact that ITDS is trusted by the Bank and that our engineers participate in the setting of the direction of mobile and online banking development in Poland.
