Many institutions have implemented mobile banking merely as an extension of their online channel. In fact, customers must be enrolled in online banking before they can even gain access to the mobile channel. This approach overlooks an important segment of the banking public: The estimated 55 million non-online-banking households in the U.S. Results in this new research paper suggest that financial institutions should pay more attention to this non-online-banking consumer segment as a potential target audience for their mobile banking services.

Aspen Marketing Services, in partnership with Qwest Communications and Fiserv, performed a comprehensive analytic study to explore the isolated impact that bill presentment and bill payment have on customer loyalty and profitability from the Biller’s perspective. This analytic study resulted in two key conclusions that have an impact on all billers’ overall strategy: 1) Bill Presentment and Bill Payment are both very important and highly strategic factors, outside of just the “cost to serve” that they represent ; and 2) Customers can and should be strategically guided towards the optimal bill presentment and bill payment option based on a comprehensive marketing and operations strategy.

Aspen Marketing Services, working with CheckFree, now part of Fiserv, and a top 10 financial institution, performed a comprehensive analysis of offline and online banking customers to understand how online bill usage impacts both profitability and customer churn. They found households that use online bill pay are up to 271 percent more profitable and 76 percent less likely to churn than households that do not. They also found that new online bill payers show a dramatic increase in profitability after adoption, delivering 15-20 percent more profit after adopting bill pay. Further, they discovered that bill pay data is a unique and incremental source of data that can be leveraged to predict a range of important outcomes, including churn, cross sell and future profitability. This paper demonstrates that, rather than just being a simple cost center, online bill pay can be a valuable tool to drive profit, reduce churn and predict future customer behavior.
