Woori Bank has introduced a service that allows customers to pay additional fees that can arise after an overseas remittance without visiting a branch. The bank said on Aug. 14 it will implement a non-face-to-face foreign exchange fee payment service. Individual users of the Woori WON Banking app can check the amount due, complete security authentication and pay from a won-denominated deposit and withdrawal account in their own name. Cable charges can also be paid this way.

Woori Bank plans to strengthen sales in the second half of 2026 by overhauling its sales territories and marketing system using public data and customer information and introducing AI agents to improve productivity. The bank said it will also expand collaboration among business groups and tighten internal controls. It cited a broader customer base, asset rebalancing and improved capital ratios as groundwork for growth, and noted Fitch raised its viability rating to A from A- in July.
