Bank Of Cyprus Named Cyprus’ Best Digital Bank By Euromoney

Bank of Cyprus has been named Cyprus’ Best Digital Bank at the Euromoney Awards for Excellence 2026, recognising the lender’s digital banking developments during the review period from January 1 to December 31, 2025.

Digital Banking Expansion

During the year, the bank integrated Fleksy, Cyprus’ first buy now, pay later service, into its digital banking platform. It also expanded Joey, its youth banking app, by adding savings and goal-setting features and enabling transfers between Joey accounts.

Bank of Cyprus also extended QuickAccount to support sterling and US dollar accounts. In addition, it launched what it said was Cyprus’ first fully digital housing loan, expanding its digital offering beyond day-to-day banking services.

The bank said it now has more than 500,000 active digital users.

Focus On Customer Access

“Enabling our customers to access the financial products and services they need with ease at any time is at the core of our digital strategy,” Chief Digital Officer Demetris Nicolaou said. “It is an honour for the bank to be named the winner of Cyprus’ Best Digital Bank at the Euromoney Awards for Excellence 2026.”

The recognition follows the Euromoney Private Banking Awards 2026, where Bank of Cyprus retained its titles as Best Private Bank in Cyprus and Best for High-Net-Worth Individuals in Cyprus for a second consecutive year.

Wealth Management Growth

Euromoney also cited growth in advisory services, digital initiatives and a 36% increase in assets under management during the review period as factors supporting the bank’s private banking awards.
