Abstract:

Mobile technology advances have created additional opportunities for the banking sector and benefits for consumers. The paper examines the relationship between customer experience and satisfaction, usage intention and brand loyalty in the context of mobile banking. In particular, customer experience covers three aspects, namely enjoyment, personalization, and practicality of mobile applications. The methodological basis includes the theoretical principles of marketing and service management, as well as planned behavior theory and the technology acceptance model. The research methods of factor, linear and regression anayses were applied. The empirical basis of the study are the results of a survey of clients in ten Turkish banks. The initial sample was 411 respondents, of which 327 completed questionaires were received. The authors put forward a number of hypotheses about the impact of customer experience in mobile banking on the retention of banking services users. According to the results, all the hypotheses were supported. It was found that each of the three aspects of user experience, and practicality of mobile banking applications in particular, has a significant impact on customer satisfaction, intention to use, and brand loyalty. The findings demonstrate that mobile banking usage intention and customer satisfaction affect loyalty to the bank brand, and customer satisfaction influences mobile banking usage intention. Increasing the number of respondents and including more banks in the research are among the directions for future research.
