Diebold Nixdorf, Kony team up to drive mobile transformation in financial services, retail

May 23, 2017

Diebold Nixdorf has announced a strategic partnership with Kony Inc., an enterprise mobility and application company, to provide white label mobile application solutions for financial institutions and retailers.

This next generation mobile application suite — DN Mobile — will leverage cross-platform data and integrate multiple channels to offer consumers a unified and highly personalized connected commerce experience, according to a press release.

The partnership aims to help banks and retailers put the consumer at the center of the experience, and will focus on several core objectives, Diebold Nixdorf said. These include:  

• move to the next generation of mobile applications — DN Mobile will have a prepackaged option and a build-your-own toolkit to allow financial institutions and retailers to innovate quickly;
• engage the API economy — an open, services-oriented application platform will facilitate new types of collaborations with payment providers, merchants and fintechs; and
• transcend legacy channel silos — integrated software product lines will enable connected commerce across self-service, POS, branch and digital channels.

"This partnership marks a transformative moment for the industries we serve," said Alan Kerr, senior vice president of software at Diebold Nixdorf, said in the release. "We are extending our leadership in systems of engagement all the way from the branch and store through to cloud-connected mobile applications for the consumer. This extended reach into mobile applications will blend channels together in innovative new ways and propel our vision of connected commerce into the marketplace." 

Kony is the largest mobility provider focused purely on cross-platform, cloud-based enterprise solutions, with more than 250 million mobile app users worldwide, the release said.
