Accessibility of OP Financial Group’s digital services

On this page you will find information about the accessibility of OP Financial Group’s digital services and the accessibility statements for them.

Accessibility in the development of our digital services

We are developing OP’s digital services to improve accessibility. Our goal is to have digital services that all of our customers can use equally, regardless of the device they use, their situation or any special needs they may have. For us, accessibility is an important principle which we follow in the development of our existing services and the creation of new ones.

There are still some shortcomings in the accessibility of our existing services, but we are addressing them. 

Check the accessibility statement for each service to see which parts of it are accessible and which are not. We keep updating the statements to let you know how we are changing the services to improve accessibility. Please tell us if you notice any shortcomings that have not yet been mentioned in the statement.

How is the accessibility of OP Financial Group’s digital services assessed?

Accessibility specialists who work on a project basis have audited the accessibility of OP Financial Group’s services. The deficiencies described in the accessibility statements are based on their observations.

We also evaluate our services ourselves and test them with screen readers.

The Selkeästi meille project assessed the cognitive accessibility of the op.fi service in October 2021, and granted the Selkeästi meille award to op.fi. According to the assessment, OP Financial Group’s online services acknowledge accessibility exceptionally well, and the site was mostly easy to use. The search engine was mentioned as a development target, as it was found difficult to use.

We aim to improve the accessibility of our services continuously based on the identified deficiencies.

Alternative service channels

Out of all our services, OP Accessible best meets accessibility requirements. You can use OP Accessible to pay bills, transfer money between accounts and view your accounts, balance and transactions.

If you cannot take care of a matter in our digital service channels, you can call OP Customer Service or visit an OP cooperative bank in person.
