Cooperative Bank of Oromia (Coopbank)

Coopbank is a private commercial bank in Ethiopia that provides digital-first banking services such as accounts, payments, loans, and interest-free (sharia-compliant) products. You can use its web and mobile channels (CoopApp, CoopApp Alhuda, COOPay-Ebirr, internet banking) to open accounts, send and receive money, pay bills, access loans, and manage your finances without needing to visit a branch for many services.

Coopbank operates primarily in Ethiopia, serving customers through its head office and branch network across the country as well as nationwide digital channels. Diaspora products are available to Ethiopian citizens and people of Ethiopian origin living abroad who want to bank with an Ethiopian institution.

You can sign up by opening an account online using the digital account opening flow that relies on Fayda ID, which allows you to create an account without visiting a branch or filling out paperwork. Alternatively, you can open accounts and access services by visiting a Coopbank branch or using its mobile and internet banking channels as instructed in the bank’s onboarding materials.

Yes, Coopbank offers mobile apps. CoopApp and CoopApp Alhuda are available for Android and iOS and support mobile banking, payments, and sharia-compliant digital services.

Coopbank is best suited for individuals, farmers, MSME owners, cooperatives and SACCOs, and diaspora customers who need Ethiopian banking, payments, loans, and interest-free options. It is particularly relevant for users who prefer digital channels for everyday banking and access to MSME lending, cooperative services, and agricultural solutions such as Farm Pass.
