Despite glitches and a mixed reception from consumers, FNB<\/a> CEO Michael Jordaan<\/a> says that the bank’s recently revamped web portal has boosted unique traffic by 15%.<\/p>\n

On 14 July 2013, FNB went live with its new look banking website, which updated the site’s visual and systems, as well as making access to digital banking scalable across all platforms.<\/p>\n

New enhancements to the site include an improved user experience, being touch screen friendly, easy buttons and menus, responsive design enabling scalability to multiple devices with layered, seamless security.<\/p>\n

The site was developed entirely by FNB Online developers working at the bank\u2019s office complex in Fairlands north of Johannesburg.<\/p>\n

And despite technical hiccups and some negative consumer feedback, Jordaan said he was “very happy with [the] stats” surrounding the new site, including a 15% increase in month-on-month traffic.<\/p>\n
