BKT and IdentiTek Partner to Bring E-Coupon Payments Directly to BKT Smart

Banka Kombëtare Tregtare (BKT) and IdentiTek have signed a cooperation agreement to introduce a new digital service that will enable BKT customers to purchase and pay for IdentiTek E-Coupons directly through the BKT Smart application.

Through the new “IdentiTek E-Coupon” service, customers will be able to select the type of coupon they need, make the payment directly from their bank account, and receive the Electronic Coupon, completing the entire process easily, quickly, and securely from their mobile phone.

The service will cover E-Coupons for various identity document applications, including identity cards, passports, and residence permits, based on the categories made available by IdentiTek.

This cooperation aims to simplify an everyday process for citizens by reducing the need to visit physical payment locations solely to purchase a coupon. Through BKT Smart, payments can be made anytime and from anywhere, offering particular convenience to customers who are located outside Albania.

Mr. Seyhan Pencabligil, Chief Executive Officer and Board Member of BKT, stated:

“Our vision is to continuously develop BKT Smart into a super-app where customers can access, in one place, not only banking services but also an increasing number of services they need in their everyday lives. Our cooperation with IdentiTek represents another concrete step in this direction. Our objective is to bring processes that have traditionally required time and physical presence increasingly closer to our customers, making them simple, fast, and secure.”

Ms. Silda Anagnosti Çepe, Administrator of IdentiTek, stated:

“IdentiTek is building an ecosystem of services that are increasingly simple, accessible, and focused on citizens’ needs, while continuously expanding digital solutions and strategic partnerships that make interaction with our services easier and more secure. The integration of E-Coupon payments into BKT Smart is another concrete step in this direction.”

With the introduction of this service, BKT becomes the first bank in Albania to enable the purchase and payment of IdentiTek E-Coupons directly through a banking application, further expanding the number of services available through BKT Smart.

This cooperation reflects the shared commitment of BKT and IdentiTek to advancing digital services, improving the citizen experience, and delivering faster, more accessible, and more efficient solutions.
