Scotiabank ranks highest for banking app satisfaction in Canada ahead of CIBC and RBC, according to JD Power.

Customer satisfaction levels with digital channels have been increasing says JD Power. And notably,  mobile apps are driving increased loyalty among banking customers.

Approximately 90% of Canadians had at least one digital interaction with their bank in the past three months.

Meantime, 70% of credit card customers interact with their provider’s digital offerings.

“Canada’s leading banks now have more than half of their customers interacting with them digitally. In fact, nearly 40% of banking customers conduct all interactions digitally without ever setting foot in a bank branch. These digital experiences will become a fundamental part of the overall brand,” says Bob Neuhaus, VP Financial Services Intelligence, JD Power.

“It is critical that banks and credit cards get the formula right, delivering the resources customers need. And also organising it in a way that it is user-friendly.”
