BPI has launched the first virtual reality branch in
Portugal, BPI VR, which is 100% virtual, built in 3D, and features different
business areas and segments, including retail, private and corporate.
In a statement, BPI detailed that this immersive counter
allows "access to content on the bank's services, using Meta's VR glasses
(Facebook)", and that "users will be able to explore the store's two
floors, learn more about the BPI offer (including savings, mortgage and personal
credit simulators), and enjoy entertainment features, including a virtual
mini-golf game".
The bank hopes that, in the future, "it can function as
a new channel for banking operations similar to what happened with the
evolution of mobile digital banking a decade ago".

Doesn't sound like something I'd leave my $ in especially with all the agencies that have been hacked this year from the government to TAP. I'm all for technology but it sounds like I would be putting my trust (of which I hardly have left for corporations and more) in a virtual and digital world in the hands of a few and not even know who they are. What if that technology get hacked? I have paper proof from my bank or a cash machine; what safeguards are they offering here?
