Security, value and customization are all reasons why millennials choose non-traditional financial service providers, but at the end of it all, convenience is the greatest differentiator. The ability to access your accounts quickly and easily, anywhere and at any time, on your mobile device is very important for millennials.

Overwhelmingly, millennials want their financial institutions to be mobile friendly. In a survey of which industries millennials want optimized for a mobile experience, banking came in third, just behind movie theaters and restaurants.
