This report goes far beyond a basic heuristic evaluation or expert review; KLI’s methodology is unique because it incorporates consumer preferences. An important part of our analysis is a 500-person survey of smartphone owners in which they are asked to weigh in and identify the features and capabilities that they consider critical for a successful experience with the mobile site or app offered by their credit card company. KLI’s intent in creating this third-party syndicated report is to:
-
- Provide consumer-driven data to help guide credit card issuers as they prioritize features to implement. This guidance will be based on the results of a current consumer survey.
- To summarize how credit card companies differentiate themselves from their competitors through the capabilities and features that they offer.
