ABOUT THE WEBINAR:

In our brave new world of instant gratification, consumers won’t wait 8-10 business days to receive a debit card in the mail. They want it immediately, at the time they open their account, whether in-person at the branch, over the phone, or online.

Known as the "Amazon Effect" because of the retail giant’s ability to remove friction from the online shopping process, today’s consumers demand the same level of speed and convenience wherever they go.

Financial institutions that can meet this demand with instant card issuance will gain a head start over their competitors in engaging and retaining account holders.
