For the second consecutive year CIBC receives highest score in the Canada Banking Mobile App Satisfaction Study

TORONTO, June 10, 2021 /CNW/ - CIBC's mobile banking app has once again received the highest ranking in customer satisfaction in Canada among the Big Five banks, according to the latest study from J.D. Power, a global leader in consumer insights, advisory services and data and analytics.

"We continue to innovate and invest in new features to provide our clients with a modern, convenient and elevated mobile banking experience," said Laura Dottori-Attanasio, Group Head, Personal and Business Banking, CIBC. "We're proud to receive this recognition from J.D. Power, especially as more and more Canadians are relying on mobile banking to stay connected to their finances."

From March 1, 2021 to April 3, 2021, the J.D. Power 2021 Canada Banking Mobile App Satisfaction Study measured overall satisfaction with mobile banking apps based on 1) navigation, 2) visual appeal, 3) speed, and 4) information/content. CIBC's mobile banking app was a top performer across most drivers of satisfaction, leading Canada's Big Five banking apps with its speed, and features such as mobile cheque deposit and account/profile management.

CIBC's online and mobile banking platforms have seen a tremendous increase in usage in the year since the pandemic began, with digital transactions and logins each growing by 23 per cent year-over-year, while the number of active mobile users grew by 11 per cent.

• Instant access for lost or replacement credit cards, enabling clients to get their new card digitally through the mobile banking app for immediate use with Apple Pay or Google Pay;
• Enhancements to the process of adding credit cards from the CIBC Mobile Banking^® App to digital wallets, making digital and tap payments easier, and;
