The result indicates that three service quality determinants specifically tangibles, courtesy and credibility demonstrate high associations with customer satisfaction and customer loyalty. The result suggests that customer satisfaction has significant mediating role in the relationship between service quality and customer loyalty. In addition, location moderates the linkage between customer satisfaction and customer loyalty in both directions.

The Relationship

The current global economic challenges force each country to survive for the prosperity of its people. The banking sector, as one of the economic regulators, also helps to grow GDP. In this effort, the bank continues to strive to maintain customer satisfaction and build long-term relationships. Although many studies examine satisfaction, there are no studies that reveal the role of punctuality and convenience of service as solid constructs in explaining the process of bank customer loyalty behavior. The purpose of this article is to examine the relationship between timeliness and service convenience to satisfaction-mediated loyalty. This paper is a conceptual study so that there are several prepositions explained. The implications of this article are expected to give alternative insight to marketing literature, especially in the field of banking marketing, as well as a foundation that can later be investigated empirically for future researchers.
