More than 20 mobile applications of ten banks and financial companies in
Kazakhstan were assessed in the framework of the initiative study Mobile
Banking Rank 2019 Kazakhstan conducted by Markswebb consulting agency
in February-March.
All applications were evaluated in terms of two business models on which
digital services operate: Daily Banking and Digital Office. In the first
business model, a mobile bank is considered to be more efficient, in which a
client can easily manage funds on a debit card and receive information about
product. In the second, the completeness of the solution of client tasks in the
mobile bank requiring an appeal to the bank's office or telephone contact
center is assessed.
Independent evaluation of mobile applications was carried out separately on
two types of mobile devices: iPhone and Android smartphones. Each mobile
bank was surveyed by signing in to user account, took part in five usability
tests and received an effectiveness assessment from 0 to 100 points.
Sberbank Online application was the best mobile bank for daily tasks with the
highest score for both types of mobile devices according to an independent
assessment of Mobile Banking Rank 2019 Kazakhstan. At the same time, the
researchers noted separately that the service of money request by telephone
number without payment references is provided only at Sberbank. Recently,
another interesting feature was introduced to the bank: it is possible to send
an electronic pleasant positive emotional postcard when sending money to
beneficiary.
Sberbank together with Altyn Bank and ForteBank also made the list of TOP-3
best digital offices in mobile banks. In all three banks a client can remotely
change own personal data, open various banking products and reissue a card.
It is worth noting that Sberbank also has an online chat where clients can write
and get answers to their questions.
"We are pleased that our mobile application is very popular among Sberbank
clients, and is duly appreciated by market experts. Subsequently, the
application's functionality will also be actively developed. It will provide
additional services and opportunities that undoubtedly reduce the time and
material costs of Sberbank clients to perform various financial transactions,"
