Hinckley & Rugby Building Society Strengthens Sopra Banking Software Partnership To Launch A Consumer Savings Platform


(MENAFN- EIN Presswire) LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, September 24, 2024 /EINPresswire / -- Hinckley and Rugby Building Society has partnered with Sopra banking Software (SBS), a leading technology partner to more than 1,500 financial institutions worldwide, to further bolster its digital capabilities.

SBS and Hinckley & Rugby have worked on a strategic digital investment program structured across four distinct phases. The first phase was completed in 2023, where SBS transitioned Hinckley & Rugby to a cloud-based managed service with SBP Core MSS (Mortgage & Savings Suite).

Today, SBS is pleased to announce the go-live of the second phase of Hinckley & Rugby's digital transformation. This phase promises to revolutionise the member experience through an innovative consumer savings portal. This front-end platform will streamline the savings account setup process, providing Hinckley & Rugby's members with a seamless, personalised experience to reach their savings goals.

This new advancement coincides with Hinckley & Rugby's recent rebranding, reflecting its commitment to modernisation and member-centric services. The refreshed brand identity aligns with the Society's vision of providing innovative and user-friendly financial solutions.

Later this year, Hinckley & Rugby will also go live on SBS's fully integrated mobile app, offering members the convenience of managing their mortgage and savings information, handling deposits, and viewing statements seamlessly.

“This development marks a significant step forward for Hinckley & Rugby, ensuring enhanced flexibility and functionality for our valued members. Having successfully completed the second phase of our digital transformation journey, we are delighted with the unwavering support, technical expertise and collaboration that SBS has provided. As we continue to innovate, we remain committed to delivering exceptional service and convenience to our members,” said Barry Carter, CEO, Hinckley & Rugby Building Society.

“The SBS team is proud to have supported HRBS on their transformative digital journey, leading to the launch of a cutting-edge online portal that redefines client engagement.
