Accessibility declaration

Approximately 20% of Israelis have various degrees of disability.

A person with disabilities is a person with a physical, mental, or intellectual, including cognitive, impairment, whether permanent or temporary, which substantially limits functioning in one or more of the central spheres of life.

It is very important to Discount to make our services and facilities accessible to people with disabilities. The bank has worked continuously to improve accessibility, investing significant resources to achieve this goal. These activities are carried out in full compliance with the provisions of the Equal Rights for People with Disabilities Law, and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

As part of the bank’s activities, we launched the “Accessible Discount” project, focusing on the implementation of accessibility changes to buildings, infrastructures, and the environment as well as to the services offered by the bank.

Set forth below is information about all of Discount's accessibility arrangements, including accessibility at branches, services, and digital banking.

How to reach us with requests and suggestions for improving accessibility
Please note that we continue our efforts to improve accessibility as part of our commitment to allow people from all walks of life, including people with disabilities, to receive the most accessible services possible.

Accessibility Arrangements at Branches

List of Branches and Services Adapted for Persons with Disabilities throughout Israel

Making bank assets accessible – Discount works to make all our branches accessible to people with disabilities. Steps taken by the bank for that purpose include, among other things, changes to furniture, signage, access routes, service and waiting stations, adjustments to height differences between levels, customization of self-service terminals, disabled parking and toilets, and more.

Furthermore, the bank works with external parties (such as local authorities) to ensure that the required changes to access routes to Discount branches are carried out; this includes the allocation of disabled parking and making the route from the street to the branch’s entrance accessible to people with disabilities.

At some branches, this process is complex and takes a long time, since it involves structural changes that depend on obtaining permits from the authorities.

For your convenience, the branch list is provided by region.

According to a survey carried out by Microsoft in 2003, about 20% to 25% of people encounter difficulties when using the internet and may benefit from more accessible internet content.

Discount believes in and works for equal opportunities on the internet for people with a variety of disabilities and for people who employ assistive technologies when using computers.

Information about the accessibility of Discount apps

  • Discount works continuously so all our customers, including those with disabilities can browse our app easily and conveniently and enjoy advanced online banking services.
  • The bank customized the app for accessibility in accordance with Israeli Standard 5568 (accessibility level AA) and in accordance with the guidelines in the WCAG 2.0 document issued by the W3C international standards association applicable to mobile devices.
  • In cases where the above standard did not discuss the issue in question, accessibility customizations were carried out in accordance with the Internet Accessibility Standard (Criteria for Success) according to the tools available in the operating system.

Information regarding app accessibility

  • On the iOS operating system - The app was tested on iPhone devices using iOS version 12.1.2.
  • On the Android operating system - The app was tested on Nexus 5X devices with Android version 8.1.0.
  • On the Android operating system - The app was tested on version 5.2 of the TalkBack screen reader.

  • You can use the gestures in common use on your operating system, such as “reverse L” on Android, to go back.
  • Please contact us with requests and suggestions for improving accessibility issues. If you encountered problems with accessibility, please let us know so we can rectify the situation.

Exemptions:

The process of creating an account in the app includes the use of technological elements applied for the purpose of conducting a proof-of-life test and scanning an ID document and a status-supporting certificate. Due to technological limitations, those components are exempted from being made accessible to persons with disabilities.

If you encounter problems creating your account in the app as a result of the above, please contact us using the “Contact us” form on the bank’s website, and we will arrange a meeting to help you to successfully finish creating your account.
