Fifth Third Bank this week opens seven new financial centers – most in high-growth areas in Florida. Whether new locations or digital products, the Bank continues to invest in improving the customer experience.

“We are pleased to add these new locations to our existing financial center networks in Florida, Illinois and Michigan,” Phil McHugh, head of Fifth Third’s Consumer Bank said. “Our consultative approach allows our staff to identify the needs of our customers and then propose solutions to those needs. These centers will offer a full range of banking, home-ownership and retirement-planning services.”

The new financial centers represent a key part of Fifth Third’s growth strategy, even as its digital transactions are growing. Financial centers offer consultations and expertise from financial experts.

“Our financial centers are an important part of delivering the best experience to our customers,” said Mike Butera, head of Fifth Third’s retail banking business. “We want to give our customers the right balance between digital and personal. Think about wanting to check your account balance on your app, deposit a check through your phone, get cash from the ATM and stop at a financial center to talk about a home equity line.”

Financial centers are opening in Sarasota, Jacksonville, Orlando and Bonita Springs in Florida, and in the Chicago and Detroit areas. The full list:

  • The Landings Financial Center, 4902 S. Tamlami Trail, Sarasota.
  • Bee Ridge Financial Center, 3740 Bee Ridge Road, Sarasota.
  • Kernan Financial Center, 12608 Beach Blvd., Jacksonville.

  • Bridgeview Financial Center, 7200 W. 87th St., Bridgeview, Illinois.
  • Van Dyke & 25 Financial Center, 54985 Van Dyke Ave., Shelby Township, Michigan.

The best customer experience is a mix of physical and digital connections. Recent enhancements for consumers include:

  • Adding to the Bank’s fee-free ATM network. There are now more than 50,000 available across the country.1
  • Enhancing digital banking, including adding alerts, online appointment scheduling and online person-to-person payments through Zelle.2
  • Creating products such as Fifth Third Momentum, the Bank’s app that allows customers to round up debit card purchases to make payments on their student loans.
  • Introducing Cardless ATM, which allows customers to use an ATM without their card by using their mobile banking app.3
