With the advancement of digital technology, counter services have begun to shift to digital channels, especially mobile banking. Existing research related to the use of mobile banking uses e-servquality more often, which is generally used in research to see the excellence of services in internet banking, online shops, and digital marketplaces. Therefore, we consider it is necessary to carry on a research about the effect of mobile banking service quality on customer satisfaction and loyalty, the effect of customer perceived value on customer satisfaction and loyalty, and the effect of customer satisfaction with customer loyalty. The research was conducted by setting a sample of Bank XYZ customers who use Bank XYZ mobile banking, the total is 505 respondents. Structural equation modeling was used to carry outconfirmatory factor analysis and path analysis. From the results, it can be seen that mobile banking service quality and customer perceived value have a significant effect on customer satisfaction, but no significant effect on customer loyalty. Meanwhile, customer satisfaction has a significant effect on customer loyalty.

Customer Perceived Value

Purpose – Global mobile communication is one of the most dynamic and important service markets. Several researchers suggest using a theoretical approach to develop a much deeper insight into key marketing constructs such as service quality, customer perceived value, customer satisfaction, perceived switching costs, corporate image, and customer loyalty is of vital importance to the mobile communications market. This study aims to develop and test a comprehensive hierarchical model of these six important constructs. The model also incorporates the retailing function of a major mobile communication provider. Design/methodology/approach – The research sample of 516 was drawn from customers of one of the largest mobile communications service providers in China. The data were analysed using exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modelling. Findings – The results of the study support using a hierarchical and multidimensional approach for conceptualising and measuring customers' perceptions of service quality in the mobile communications market. In addition, the findings illustrate that service quality is an important determinant of customer perceived value, customer satisfaction, corporate image, and perceived switching costs. Customer perceived value is also an antecedent of customer satisfaction. Corporate image, customer satisfaction, and perceived switching costs are three key drivers of customer loyalty. However, the findings also indicate that corporate image is not an important determinant of customer satisfaction and that customer perceived value is not a key driver of customer loyalty. Originality/value – This is the first paper that has developed and tested a comprehensive hierarchical model of the mobile communications market.
