V-CIP

An instant way to open a bank account through Video Customer Identification Process (V-CIP)

Imagine sitting on a comfortable couch, binge watching your favourite series and enjoying the pleasant atmosphere created inside the house. It all sounds like a leisure moment, right? But, what if you had to leave all of this behind and go to a bank to complete your KYC process for opening an account? We know what it feels like.

To help our existing customers and potential clients enjoy a convenient banking experience, Indian Bank has introduced V-CIP (Video-Customer Identification Process) for customers to complete their account opening process through a video KYC. Now customers can skip the queue and open an account from the comfort of their homes, anytime.

Here’s a small backstory which led us to adding this feature to our service. Indian Bank’s IB Digi gives people the freedom to open an account online instantly. After which, the customer has to visit the bank to submit his/her KYC documents and convert the online account into a full-fledged bank account. To make this time-consuming process hassle-free and even faster, Indian Bank VCIP was added to our host of services.

What is a video KYC?

Indian Bank’s Video KYC lets users complete the KYC for their accounts in a jiffy. During the process, the submitted documents are verified and the signatures are recorded through a video call with a bank officer. This skips the entire need of physically visiting a bank branch. Video KYC documents include a physical PAN Card, a blank paper with a pen for a live signature, a clear background for better visibility and a strong internet connectivity.

Indian Bank’s video KYC ensures the safety of its customers. Personal information is stored with complete security and only used for the verification purpose.
