A few key comments from the Hype Cycle include: 

  • Discussion around WAP and Java apps for mobile banking, and how Java apps are seen as more advanced and user friendly
  • Launching mobile banking as part of a multi-channel integration strategy
  • Avoiding multiple application versions for devices, in favor of a more standardized and secure version for most mobile devices on the market.
  • The key to successful mobile banking is identifying and targeting the customer’s requirements – customer segmentation for banking services
  • The Hype Cycle mentions that New Zealand banks have successfully deployed mobile consumer banking.
