Consumer Mobile Banking Experience Review

The Mobile Consumer Banking Review was introduced in 2013. The review explores a typical mobile device-based retail consumer banking experience, including both the pre-login and login areas, that evaluates the mobile journey through each retail consumer banking process and typical retail consumer banking experience.

The Latest Rankings

For the 5th time in the past 6 years, CIBC is the leader in Canadian mobile-based consumer banking experience. A consumer mobile-based banking experience represents what it is like to bank using a phone, mainly an application-based (iPhone, Android or Proprietary) platform to perform everyday banking, but the report does not shy away from mobilized online-based versions (adjusts to smaller hand-held devices) if that is all that is available.
CIBC was identified as the best big bank for mobile-based consumer banking experiences with BMO Bank of Montreal as the worst big bank, Coast Capital Savings as the best credit union (Servus Credit Union the worst), and Tangerine as the best neo-branchless bank (Alterna Bank the worst) and an overall 2nd place showing.

What we Measure and The Deep Dive that Differentiates.

# of Questions

The questions form the basis for the mobile analysis and represent the lowest level of features surrounding the main functionality under review. The binary questions are used to replicate the various actions an actual user would perform when using the mobile platform.

# of Criteria

The second step is the criteria analysis which places groupings of questions together to form the ‘experiences’ or usability encountered by a mobile user. For example, paying a bill is not simply pressing the Send Money button. The process involves supporting actions and information.

# of Sub-Categories

The third step places the individual experiences into relevant sub-categories that are grouped according to the general activity performed by a mobile user. The sub-categories are then assigned weightings according to the importance the group of experiences contributes within its category.

# of Categories

The last step takes the sub-category items under review and rolls them up into the final industry ranking and individual scores. In most cases, the category weightings are defined by the industry firms once the review is complete which then forms the final mobile scores and rankings.
