2012 Hispanic Mobile Banking Infographic
December 10, 2012 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
The growth of mobile device technology and its usage throughout the day changes the way marketing is done. ThinkNow Research and Zpryme Hispanic Insights have collaborated to create an infographic that shows statistical trends in Hispanic mobile banking usage. Although financial institutions aggressively promote their mobile websites and applications to consumers through TV commercials and online app stores, this study shows the main reason Latinos don't use mobile banking is because they are concerned about security (44%).500 adult Latinos where surveyed online in the month of October. The age range was between 18 and 70. Participants were asked various questions regarding mobile phone or tablet usage in relation to mobile banking. The study dives into whether Hispanics use smartphones and tablets to access mobile banking and what activities Hispanics partake in when they access mobile websites or applications.
As the largest ethnic group in the US, this research shows that marketers must consider Latinos when developing mobile banking systems. A small change in TV messaging or mobile site landing pages can increase conversions and usage with Latinos. Latinos currently spend $1.2 trillion a year in the U.S. economy so their purchasing power is tremendous.. Helping Latino consumers better tap into this spending power through mobile devices would be a step in the right direction for financial institutions looking to expand their business.
