What Is Mobile Banking - Advantages And Disadvantages Of Mobile Banking

As mobile banking became increasingly popular in recent years, it has grown to be an essential tool in the lives of more and more people all over the world. And no wonder: it is a convenient and simple way to manage your funds. And even though mobile banking has numerous advantages, it also has some minuses. How has electronic banking changed banking services?

In the last six months more than 79% of smartphone owners have used their gadgets for online shopping. Statistics say that over 75% or roughly 246 million of Americans used their smartphones to check their bank balance in 2019 alone. And by 2021, there will be more than 7 billion mobile users worldwide.

Electronic banking drastically changed banking service experience for everybody who owns a smartphone. Technological progress allowed mobile banking to develop an absolutely revolutionary approach to the whole money managing experience.

What is mobile banking?

It is an application in your smartphone which serves as your own pocket bank. This app operates without a need to go out and stay in the queues waiting to be served. Your bank suggests you sign up in an app where you can deposit checks, keep track of your bank balance, get notified about the latest news, updates and offers, find ATMs in your area and other mobile banking benefits offered to its customer disposal.

Mobile banking app features include 24-hour access to account balances, account history, and transactions, bill and loan payments as well as travel services. The main and most significant of which allows you to transfer funds from your bank account to another in a heartbeat.

Let’s shift closer to the advantages of mobile banking apps that can save your time, money and efforts.

Convenience

In the modern world, you would definitely prefer your daily tasks to be simplified as much as possible, and the mobile banking system fulfills this wish. Not only the system saves your time by eliminating the need to go out and pay a visit to a physical bank, it also can help you with optimizing your money and managing expenses in all sorts of new ways. Statistics show that annually mobile banking saves you:

  • 6 hours of waiting in line at the bank on average
  • 20 hours of receiving help by a teller on average
  • 396$ cost of paying one overdraft monthly
  • 38$ of credit card late fees

To sum it up, with mobile banking, you can save up to 26 hours and 434$ per year. This is an example of one from numerous benefits of mobile banking. Furthermore, recently several major banks like Wells Fargo provided their users with money guidance on their mobile apps, allowing you to save even more time and let the machine do all the work for you. No counting, no paper mess - everything you need right at your fingertips, just one click away from you.

Enhanced Security

Is mobile banking safe? Money matters have always been sensitive. Security is an essential aspect of a bank business. This applies to both guarding your assets and your interactions on the apps. Since the banking app is not your basic social media account where the username and a password would be enough to get the access, it takes more than that to sign in, for banking apps are highly secured. Most banking apps require using multi-factor authentication, where you have to use your phone number, mail, id or even a fingerprint and a face scan. To take matters further, this kind of authentication is also required in order to complete any transactions, no matter how much you are planning to send. These measures are taken for maximum security, since there is always a possibility of a hazard or intended harm.

Control

The mobile banking app basically serves as a remote control for your funds. The app allows you to perform tasks on your bank balance and send someone the money wherever you are, whenever you want to. Banking apps also offer a feature to instantly deactivate your credit card if it ever goes missing. In case of finding the lost card, you can easily turn it back on with just one tap. Moreover, as a client, you can see and manage where you have your credit cards stored. Also you can manage your monthly subscriptions and cancel the ones you do not use anymore. Another benefit of mobile banking suggests that you have 24/7 access to your accounts, which allows you to keep an eye out on your funds, as you are able to monitor your spending whenever you wish.

Pay your rent and bills online

You can use a banking app to pay for your bills, rent or utilities fee online and never worry about the possibility of your physical check getting lost in the mail. Most banks have an option to set up payees, and once you fill up the information, such as amount, credit card info and receiver you are ready to go. After that you just choose that one paying option anytime you have to pay.

Improved customer experience

When it comes to the banking business, relationship with a customer is key. By maintaining a good, respectful and healthy relationship with the client you have higher chances to both keep them and attract new ones with the help of word of mouth. Due to being available 24/7, mobile banking is great for those who are not always able to visit the actual bank on its working hours. By round-the-clock services being introduced, users can access their accounts whenever they want.

Disadvantages of mobile banking: how safe is mobile banking?

How secure are banking apps? Sadly, despite the bank's best efforts to keep their customers out of harm's way, the system is not 100% reliable yet. Despite that fact that most ordinary users never face any cyber threats, some unlucky individuals still do. The users of mobile banking systems are vulnerable to fake notifications and scams, as well as robbers and pickpockets. If you lose your phone, the criminal who stole or find it may try to log into your bank account, causing a lot of trouble. The statistics shows that:

  • Mobile app fraudulent transactions have increased by over 600% since 2015
  • 89% of digital fraud losses are the direct result of takeovers of the accounts
  • About one in every 20 fraud attacks are associated with a mobile banking app
  • On average, there are 82 new rogue applications submitted daily
  • Mobile fraud losses reached more than $40 million across 14,392 breaches in 2019 alone

Another obstacle of mobile banking apps is that they do not support bigger operations yet, such as getting a mortgage. Even though banks are trying their best in developing the safest, most secure system, they usually fail to do so. The researches state, that 97% of banking apps presented insufficient protection of the code, 90% of those experienced the leakage of information to other apps on devices, 83% of solutions using APIs just stored data mindlessly, letting hackers to steal it, and in 80% of products, the encryption methods were not efficient enough.
And since COVID-19 crisis took over the world, so did the criminals. In the wake of the global pandemic hackers tend to perform illegal activities much more often than before. 

As of May 28, 2020, the Internet Crime Complaint Center received nearly the same amount of complaints in 2020 (about 320,000) as they had for the entirety of 2019 (about 400,000)

Calvin A. Shivers, assistant director of the FBI's Criminal Investigative Division

A survey that was conducted by CrowdStrike stated that 59% of participants did not believe that their business would experience any serious cybercrime during the COVID-19 crisis, yet CrowdStrike has confirmed 100 times more COVID-19 related malicious acts from February to April 2020.
As of April of 2020, 450 active World Health Organization email accounts and passwords were leaked online alongside thousands belonging to other individuals and organizations researching the recent coronavirus response. Paul Chichester, the Director of Operations at the National Cyber Security Center in the UK stated: 

We know that cyber criminals are opportunistic and will look to exploit people’s fears, and this has undoubtedly been the case with the Coronavirus outbreak

All in all, mobile banking is a huge improvement of day-to-day activities of anyone who deals with money. Starting with casual grocery shopping and all the way to the stock traders. Despite having its own flaws and security loopholes, the concept is promising and already successfully used all over the world by thousands of people.

Discovery Phase in Software Development

Stakeholders face many questions when building an app for the business. Software development companies offer Discovery phase service, which forces them to realize the problem first, empathise with people who lack the solution, and then build it with the right means. If to skip the phase, the software development project has more chances to fall through due to not found users' needs, missed requirements and finally a wrong solution.

Do not underestimate Discovery

Discovery in app development is often underestimated. Clients may think “I know everything inside out about my project, just let’s jump to implementation now”. However, many insufficiencies, badly written requirements or not relevant for end-users features can be improved and identified during this phase. Think of the cost of mistakes. They can be eliminated during discovery, for which you pay a truly affordable price, or you can pay users’ trust, income and time when it is an already built solution.

Discovery is applied not to misinterpret your vision over a product (which can be restricted to your preferences and experience) with vision of your end-users, your target audience. This is why the idea of product discovery appeared as a call to go out of your offices and talk with customers, gathering their pain-point in real life. So, value of the discovery phase in a software project is to avoid the risk of building the wrong app. Wrong is the one which is useless for end-users.

When do you need Discovery?

Hardly it is a mere guessing whether you need discovery or not. It is firstly the experience in software development that from the first talk with a client can give answer to the question - does this idea need discovery? Raw projects, the ones with constantly changing requirements due to trends or other conditions, startups are especially recommended to have an expert view over the project idea. If you have ever thought about the next questions, and doubts arose, then it is almost a verified need for discovery service:

How not to miss any requirements for my system?

Do I properly set requirements for the system?

How will my clients use the application in a particular situation when...?

What trends could differentiate my app from other apps?

How many screens would be optimal to have?

How much does it cost to make such an application?

What improvements can be made, but how much will it increase development costs?

Where can I get consultation on my software product?

If you’ve not consulted any business analysts, or software companies, professionals who could apply tools of analytics to learn your customers in a technically right and advantageous way, if these questions resonate for you and you have other specific ones concerning your app, than let’s go deeper into how discovery is conducted and what it will bring to you.

Note on the goal of Product Discovery

Goal of the Discovery phase in software development is to eliminate risks of building an app users won’t need, not to find out the product requirements.

Focus on problem validation, not solution building

Product Discovery Tips, Roman Pichler

This is what Discovery phase really is by the author of “How to Lead in Product Management”, “Strategize” and “Agile Product Management with Scrum”.

It does not say that requirements are not important. It means requirements go after you have validated the problem knowing what product you are building and what the target audience is. Your product features, design, trends, values you input should resonate with needs and values of target audience. UX, user stories, choosing tech stack, drawing architecture should be done after your idea is assessed. Understand firstly what problem you solve with your app. Then, you can smoothly shift to the actual features of the solution and how users would interact with the system.

Whether you need the mobile application for education, cloud web application for logistics or any other industry you will certainly ponder the risks, possibilities and future success of the product.

Your product discovery work should focus on nailing the value proposition, target group, business goals, business model, and stand-out features of the product — not on writing user stories, designing the user interface, or building the actual solution. Your goal should be to mitigate the risk of building a product nobody wants and needs, not to figure out the product details.

How to conduct discovery for your business?

Turn to a software provider. When you address a software development company, do not expect they will start the implementation the next day. They will look at your requirements or documentation if you have any. You can present an already compiled project plan ready for implementation. However, if your requirements are vague and you dimly understand what improvements you could drive, the team would like to get acquainted with you closer. They will challenge your vision and set a variety of questions during discovery meet-ups. 

Conduct enough research yourself. Talk to users, send surveys to people who you think are your target audience and will benefit from the solution the most. Be ready that doing it yourself can take pretty much time. You should have a fine sense of what to ask, have tools to reach your customers, learn a lot about market trends. Test your product strategy with observations, interviews, and prototypes. Namely there are three key elements in product strategy you should pay attention to:

  • Market and Needs
  • Business Goals
  • Key Features

The process of Discovery at software development companies

The first step in app development discovery phase is validating problems. The second focus of Discovery Phase process is on setting, refining and analyzing right requirements to deliver the system with 100% effective performance and high-quality functionality. People involved in delivery are usually involved in the discovery phase to avoid loss of knowledge. In a team there will be UX designers, QA engineers, technical architects, senior engineers, business analysts and lead software developers. Usually, the discovery phase in web development is based on meetings with a client during one-two weeks. However, depending on the size of the project discovery can take more than four weeks.

At the beginning, the product owner explains how the solution should work, how and when users will use it, whether it will be a web and mobile or responsive app, what key features should be there. The client presents the company with the first portion of necessary information. Then the path - from framing the problem to solution building - is dropped into several steps.

The first step would be to research end-users and identify challenges. Here the team nails down real end-users’ problems, learns project stakeholders, sets objectives and learn opportunities. Experts use different methods like swot analysis, business cases, benchmarking and market analysis, canvas. Many teams use root-cause analysis techniques like 5 WHY or fishbone diagram

User stories are great to describe product functionality, how users reach the product, where they find it and how they use it. Each user story is a bridge between business and solution requirements. The base of a user story is to:

  • Define end-users
  • Specify their needs
  • Explain the benefits
  • Add acceptance criteria

Acceptance criteria is a mandatory part in drawing project requirements. AC translates user needs and client's non-specific wishes over what the app should do into clear, technically right, understandable by engineers requirements: As a <user role> , I want <goal>, so that <benefit> .

Use case technique is also used as a part of user research, but use cases are more specific as they show how users interact with the system when it is already at his disposal and what way users choose to attain this or that goal. Use cases work well when you want to have a detailed view over usage of the app and if requirements need better investigation to make the app as much convenient for end-users as possible. This is how Roman Pichler explains on user research methods:

You can also use stories to capture non-functional aspects of a product, such as performance, robustness, and interoperability. But when it comes to the user interface and user interaction, user stories are less suitable. Sketches and mock-ups are better at describing the UI design. And scenarios, workflow diagrams, storyboards, and story maps are better suited to capture user interactions that comprise several steps

Roman Pichler

Coming back to your discovery team, they will suggest to improve or add some features if necessary. Then technical lead will define the best tech stack for desired functionality. Thus, both parties can proceed to setting priorities for tasks and developing a project scope. Every change in the solution is discussed with a customer to ensure everybody is on the same page. That’s why there is justified necessity of customers to be involved in the discovery of their app.  Clients should understand that the data they provide should be consistent and clear. It makes no good to keep silent during discussions thinking the team will certainly understand what I mean. Be concise in your demands and open with your questions. 

After, the team and customers work on the project roadmap, which is a compiled document of the project strategic plan: objectives, milestones, deliverables, resources, and timeframes. Final steps are filling the road map with estimations, technical specifications and design sketches.

What tools do companies use for analysis of software development project?

Business analysts apply various approaches and use various handful tools to evaluate the data. Experts’ use the following tools and methodologies for product discovery which is partly a business analysis of the future software:

  • Roles & Permissions Matrix, RACI Matrix, Personas for Roles evaluation;
  • Scope Modeling and Root Cause Analysis;
  • Use Cases (how users interact with the developed software), User Stories (how functionality works to satisfy the end user);
  • Functional Decomposition and Prototyping for System Capabilities;
  • Data Dictionary, Data Flow Diagrams for gathering information and data structuring;
  • Interface Analysis (how software components interact to make interface and system 100% effective);
  • Feasibility Analysis (how practical the solution is);
  • SWOT Analysis.

The RACI matrix is widely used is software development. It is responsibility allocation map for key activities and decisions which helps to delegate tasks effectively and clearly direct each team member into his or her role in the project.

Types of requirements for software projects. How are requirements set in software development projects?

Modeling of requirements during software product Discovery Phase can include texting, diagrams, descriptions, matrix and other scope modeling methods for systematizing information of:

  • Functional/Non functional - subtypes of solution requirements
  • Stakeholder requirements
  • Business requirements

Business requirements define goals, objectives, and outcomes that are to be achieved for an enterprise or organization in a whole. This can be measured with the help of the SMART system.

Stakeholder analysis describes specific needs of a stakeholder or group of stakeholders, how they will accord with the solution.

Solution requirements include functional requirements which describe the functionality, workflow, performance and logic of the system operations. Non-functional requirements describe “Quality Attributes” of the system and conditions under which the system stays efficient, fast, secure etc.

Transition requirements describe capabilities of the solution needed during transforming the current state of the product to a new one. Data conversion, business continuity can relate to this category of requirements.

Product owners receive a consistent picture of the software project plan

Discovery phase in software project assures high market demand of the product. It guides the team to successful creation of UI/UX, system functionality, architecture and more. Mobile, cloud, progressive web applications thrive tremendously in the Apple Store and Google Play because their product owners have done a huge work on identifying problem area. 

At the end of Discovery stakeholders understand the needs of end users, receive documents with improved requirements, estimation of time and money to be invested in the project development. Matrices, data analytics tools, prototyping, scope modeling and other techniques helps companies present the product owner with the following deliverables of Discovery process:

  • Assessed and approved project idea;
  • Clearly identified pain-points of end-users and known risks;
  • Clarified, negotiated and validated functional, nonfunctional and software requirement;
  • Estimated costs and time frames of the project implementation;
  • Compiled Documentation highlighting key statements and requirements (Solution Scope, Vision Scope, Software Requirements Specification, Wireframes, Metrics, Business requirement document).

Summarizing benefits of Discovery Phase in software projects

During Discovery software development company assists product owners in making better decisions. The process is critically helpful for product owners because it:

  • makes the collaboration with a dedicated team of developers long-term and trusting;
  • creates a consistent picture of a software solution;
  • offers proficient support of an expert team in idea evaluation and improvement;
  • provides all clarified requirements and ensures the relevance of solution for its end-users’;
  • ensures technically successful decisions and compiled matrices for measuring business value;
  • makes the software solution elegant, compatible with business needs and worthy of investments for the specific field.

So, does Discovery help to build successful software products? Yes, it does. More than both parties win - customer gets a market-ready, fully-functional application, while the team keeps motivated and interested knowing they are building the product users will love.

DISCOVERY PHASE SERVICES and DEEP BUSINESS ANALYSIS

Advantages of discovery stage can not be underestimated. Since the moment business idea is presented to the company, its implementation demands a thorough research of business analysts beforehand. The request for discovery phase is almost urgent if both the company and the client understand that their further work and success of the product depends on improvements during this stage. What discovery phase reveal to the client? In general, it is estimation of whether client’s solutions and requirements for the app match business needs correctly.

It is important to bring the maximum value for end users and product owner via fulfilled business needs. Evaluation of business, functional and non functional requirements, advice on system’s functionality and searching user’s pain-points in order to solve them through designed software – these are key pillars of discovery stage. To reach accurate evaluation of idea stakeholders analysis also should be done. That is the prime road to consistency of project plan and clarified vision of product usage and benefits it gives to users.
