KUWAIT: National Bank of Kuwait (NBK), in partnership with Al-Oula Fueling Co, recently launched a new drive through ATM at Sabah Al-Salem gas station, with an additional 20 ATMs to be placed soon at Al-Oula gas stations in different locations in Kuwait. NBK, concomitantly, announced waiving the KNET fees for its customers.

Tareq S Al-Ghanim, Deputy General Manager Consumer Banking Group, indicated that Al-Oula is the first private gas station in Kuwait and NBK has partnered with them in providing drive through ATMs. Currently, NBK's drive through ATMs are located at various location in Kuwait such as Qortoba, Jabiya, Messila, Qurain, Al Omariya and Sabah al Salim Al-Oula petrol stations.

AlGhanim added that the decision to place drive through ATMs in gas stations is primarily a response to our customers who want the flexibility to access cash anytime, anywhere, even at gas stations. Customers can conveniently drive up and access their cash at anytime, day or night and we are waiving the Knet charges for our customers.

NBK has the largest delivery network in Kuwait which includes branches, ATMs and cash deposit machines, providing customers with the convenience and flexibility to conduct their banking at a location of their choice.
