Digitally Yours Campaign

In anticipation of TCF 2024, a premier event in the banking industry, ITSS aimed to reposition itself as the leading partner for banks looking to innovate in the digital banking space. Our task was to create scalable and compelling messaging that ITSS could leverage both in the lead-up to and during TCF 2024.

Campaign Messaging

Option 1: Digitally Yours

Thought Process: From Banking as a Service (BaaS) to Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) and now embedded finance, the expansion of banking frontiers is an exciting phenomenon. However, this rapid evolution can overwhelm banks without the right guidance in strategy and technology. Without a reliable partner, opportunities can quickly turn into challenges. ITSS Global positions itself as the dependable partner for banks navigating the digital landscape.

Message: "Digitally Yours" - Your partner-in-growth for everything digital in banking.

Option 2: Build Your Digital Life

Thought Process: Whether a traditional legacy bank or an emerging Neobank, banks of all sizes and customer profiles need to innovate to meet new regulations and customer expectations. In this ever-changing landscape, the only viable long-term solution is to ‘go digital’. ITSS helps banks reincarnate themselves by digitizing various aspects of banking, from reporting and operations to customer experiences and infrastructure.

Message: “Build Your Digital Life” - Reimagine a new digified life for your bank with ITSS.

Option 3: Build Your Digital Life

Thought Process: In a competitive landscape where lines are fast-blurring, financial and non-financial entities compete for equal market share. It is no longer just traditional institutions who have a stake in the game. Banks must onboard their solutions to the digital landscape swiftly to challenge other entities and win over customers. With its time-tested expertise, ITSS enables banks to achieve this and go to market quicker.
