PPCBank Unveils New Mobile App with Smart Assistant & ‘Glory of Cambodia’ Theme, Honoring 17 Years of Preah Vihear Temple’s 17th UNESCO Anniversary

The bank is delighted to share that the launch coincides with the 17th anniversary of Preah Vihear Temple’s inscription as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the perfect way to celebrate Cambodia’s rich heritage alongside the bank’s digital transformation journey. The app is expected to greatly enhance customer convenience and redefine the digital banking experience in Cambodia.

Like the UNESCO listing of Preah Vihear, PPCBank has become a symbol of success in the modern Cambodia, where progress is constantly marked with exciting new achievements, even as the Kingdom’s unique cultural heritage is honoured and revered.

The All-New App introduces a wide range of innovative features designed to deliver a seamless, secure and rewarding banking experience for both individual customers and merchants. Among its many enhancements, users can now open accounts effortlessly using Cambodian or Korean mobile numbers, enjoy first-ever split payment functionality through KHQR for group outing, and earn reward points with every KHQR transaction.

Merchants can benefit from integrated store management tools and curated “Good Deals”, while all users enjoy personalised product recommendations and theme customisation options, including a special design inspired by Cambodian culture. Upcoming, additional conveniences include access to in-app online travel insurance, a smart spending tracker and a streamlined interface that prioritizes both form and function.

Available in Khmer, English, Korean, Japanese and Chinese, the new app experience is tailored to meet the needs of Cambodia’s diverse customer base.

From the very first login, users benefit from a simplified process with saved user IDs and quick access via Face and Touch ID. A sleek new home screen offers intuitive navigation, with features such as the ability to show or hide account balances for added privacy and the separation of cards by type for easier review and management.

The All-New PPCBank Mobile App is engineered for all smartphones and integrates cutting-edge technology to offer a truly unified and user-centred banking experience. PPCBank Mobile has also enhanced its Overseas Transfer functionality, offering seamless SWIFT Transfers for any amount, tailored for the expat community. Customers can also enjoy the convenience of sending cash home worldwide through Western Union.

For receiving large inward transfers, users can conveniently submit required documents to claim funds with a click, ensuring compliance while prioritizing user convenience. This feature reinforces PPCBank’s commitment to secure and efficient banking solutions for all customers.

The All-New App also introduces My Assets, a next-generation financial management tool that acts as a personal banking advisor. Designed to support the fiscal journey of each one of our customers, it offers a series of cutting edge features, each aimed at streamlining your individual banking needs.

The personal-banker-in-your-pocket will offer personalised product suggestions for loans, investments and deposit accounts, and even optimise your financial planning through the use of predictive budgeting tools. Upcoming features include automated spending analysis — with visual breakdowns of income and expenses — and savings recommendations to help customers reach financial goals faster.

One of the other standout additions in the app is the Piggy Bank account, which provides a simple and secure way to save with an attractive interest rate. Customers can open this account remotely and choose to save daily or monthly, empowering them to reach their financial goals more easily.

“As Cambodia embraces a more digital future, PPCBank remains committed to leading that evolution with solutions that empower people every day,” said Mr. Lee Jin Young, President of PPCBank.

“The All-New App is more than just an upgrade — it’s a reflection of our belief that banking should be accessible, rewarding and built around the real needs of our customers,” he added.

To celebrate the launch and honour the significance of Preah Vihear Temple’s inscription as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, PPCBank is awarding 10 smartwatches each month to users who download and use the new app. Additionally, three lucky customers will have the chance to win grand prizes — the latest top smartphones.

The campaign highlights the bank’s ongoing commitment to financial innovation, customer satisfaction and digital leadership in the Cambodian financial sector, just as the noble Kings Suryavarman I and Suryavarman II led some of the greatest cultural innovations in the region, almost 1,000 years ago.

PPCBank is proud to set a course for the future, while never forgetting the importance of the past.

The All-New PPCBank Mobile App is now available for download on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store
