JACKSONVILLE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--New research released today from FIS™ (NYSE: FIS), a global leader in financial services technology, found that digital-only banks have overtaken traditional banks in consumer satisfaction in the United States.
The 2019 FIS Performance Against Customer Expectations (PACE) study, which surveyed 1,749 consumers in the United States, found that direct-to-consumer banks – typically digital-only banks – had the highest consumer satisfaction of any category, overtaking credit unions, the leader from the 2018 study. Digital banks also had the lowest rate of respondents leaving their bank.
Other key U.S. findings from this year’s FIS PACE report:
“The battleground for winning and keeping today’s banking consumers is in the front lines of customer experience,” said Bruce Lowthers, co-chief operating officer, FIS. “While security and trustworthiness continue to be critical attributes, more consumers are choosing their banking providers on the basis of a convenient, frictionless digital experience. For banks and credit unions of all sizes, these survey results reinforce the importance of modernizing every touch point of their customer journeys.”
