Transforming Wait Time into Prime Time

BACKGROUND



Waiting in a bank branch is often seen as lost time. PKO Bank Polski's queue screens were used ad-hoc, without a clear strategy or consistent look. The goal was to turn these screens into a consistent channel that genuinely supports the customer journey.


SITUATION


We helped PKO BP turn queue screens into a well-organized communication tool:


  • - Strategic Framework: We defined what to show and in what proportion – ensuring relevance for everyone, from seniors to tech-savvy IKO app users.

  • - Purpose-Built Design: We introduced a repeatable format for every message: short animations that are easy to read from a distance and easy to follow, with clear pacing.

  • - Content Production: We produced 15 video animations covering cybersecurity, the IKO app, and new services.

  • - Field Testing: We tested the format in real branches and fine-tuned the content based on real customer behavior.

 




RESULTS


The bank got a clearer, more engaging way to communicate with customers:



  • 1. Better experience: Waiting time feels shorter and more useful.


  • 2. Higher awareness: Customers discover new services while they wait.


  • 3. Staff support: The screens act as a "silent advisor," preparing customers for their conversation at the desk.
