Innovation at Poste Italiane

The current context is shaped by technological and social evolutions that profoundly change the ways we live and work, such as the increasing spread of mobile devices, the importance of social media, the expansion of e-commerce, and the development of artificial intelligence. This is why our strategy is based on continuous innovation, so that we can anticipate and drive change along the entire value chain, supporting the Country’s growth.

For us, innovating means: 

  • responding to the evolving needs of citizens and businesses with new technologies and solutions, offering our customers a unique and distinctive experience;
  • positioning ourselves as a driver of innovation and digitalisation for the Country, ensuring that our services are accessible through a strategy that reaches customers both through increasingly advanced physical locations and by enhancing digital channels. We have therefore launched a profound transformation of our offering and service model, particularly through the adoption of cloud technologies, artificial intelligence and a next-generation data platform.

We therefore aim to be an integrated and sustainable platform serving citizens, businesses and the public administration.

Product and service innovation and digitalisation

Innovating our services results in an integrated ecosystem of physical and digital solutions designed to meet the needs of all our customers. We have strengthened our role in the PagoPA system, supporting the digitalisation of the public administration: in November 2025, our Board of Directors approved the acquisition of a 49% stake in the share capital of PagoPA S.p.A..  
Moreover, technological innovation guides our policies to tackle climate change, through the decarbonization of logistics operations and the improvement of energy efficiency across our properties.  As for PostePay, a key player in the transition to digital payments, we are increasingly offering eco-friendly cards made from plant-based materials.

Innovation in internal processes: the ‘Platform Company’ model

At the same time, we are transforming our process to increasingly move toward a platform-based business model that connects people, companies and institutions through a widespread and accessible digital network. The goal is to ensure a simple and inclusive experience for everyone (including non-digital natives) through intuitive interfaces, support services and tutorials.

App Poste Italiane
Poste Italiane app

A single point of contact for all our services

App Poste Italiane

Developed starting in 2023, our ‘P’ App by Poste Italiane provides a single digital access point to the Group’s entire range of products and services. Designed as a bridge between our physical channel and the digital world, the new app, progressively completed in 2025 with the introduction of remaining features and enriched with new services, allows you to purchase and manage cards, current accounts, postal vouchers, savings accounts, insurance policies, electricity and gas supply, and telephone services, all in one place. The app also allows our customers to book an appointment at a post office, send mail and parcels, track shipments and pay bills.

The Poste Italiane app is simple, intuitive and highly customised. It incorporates generative artificial intelligence for the first time. It will be constantly improved and developed so as not to focus only on Post Office services, but also to include features related to the public administration, facilitating the use of all the services available in the Post Office today.

In 2025, our app ranked first in terms of store downloads among apps in the Finance category, and received a user rating of 4.8 out of 5.

Artificial Intelligence: our ethical approach

We harness the potential of AI while upholding the principles that have defined our history for more than 160 years:

  • transparency;
  • integrity;
  • inclusiveness, with particular attention to respect for and the empowerment of people.

AIKnow: artificial intelligence to support customer service

Persona al computer

AI Know – di generazione in generazione’, our new knowledge management system based on artificial intelligence, designed to make it easier for staff to assist customers and to meet customer demands in all business areas. The name incorporates ‘AI’ into the words ‘I know’ because the focus is on collaboration between human and artificial intelligence. This system is in fact built on the values that define us: proximity, inclusion and respect for people.

Through a chat, operators have access to the most up-to-date information on products and procedures in real time, while continuing to play a central role in ensuring the quality and accuracy of generated content through continuous feedback.

  • Launched in spring 2024 for financial services, AIKnow is now deployed across several business areas.
  • Since 2025, AIKnow has handled approximately 3.5 million queries, with an average response accuracy of 95%.
