Canadians Embrace Value and Convenience From New Banking and Payment Technologies-CBA Research
(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 10/15/14 -- The Canadian Bankers Association (CBA) today released the results of its latest research, How Canadians Bank, which shows that Canadians of all ages are embracing new technologies in their daily lives and value innovative ways to make their banking more accessible and convenient.
Keys trends include the fact that online and mobile banking use continues to grow and payments are quickly evolving as mobile wallets and "tap and go" contactless payments become more widely available.
"Bankers from the 1970s would be astonished at the technologies being used for everyday banking today," said Terry Campbell, president of the Canadian Bankers Association. "Canadians are now checking account balances using their bank's mobile app, flashing their phone to make purchases and taking pictures of cheques to deposit them from their mobile phone. It's hard to imagine what we'll be doing 10 years from now."
Mobile banking and payments growing rapidly
Online banking grows while branch, ABM and telephone banking decline
