As South Africa’s leading vehicle and asset financer, WesBank always strives to improve the financing experience for its customers. To do that, the company wanted to introduce an application that would deliver a frictionless experience for new and existing customers seeking car loans.

“Our loan approval process is the most critical process for us and we wanted to explore digitizing it,” says Krishen Rangappa, Chief Technology Officer for WesBank. However, WesBank’s on-premises IT environment made it difficult to scale compute resources up or down on demand during development.
