The partnership will include subscription collection through Midland Bank’s Agent Banking, API integration for App-in-App services, special discounts for Midland Bank cardholders, and Milvik subscriptions linked to the bank’s payroll package. Health awareness campaigns will also be organized for corporate clients.
Senior officials from both organizations attended the signing. From Midland Bank, Md Rashed Akter, Head of Retail Distribution Division, and Omar Sharif, Head of Digital Financial Services, were present.
