We suggest considering the main parameters that should be taken into account when choosing the best web banking:

1. Interaction with the user. It is better to choose a bank with an application that is easy to use and has a high rating of reviews.
2. Fees and Charges. Find out about transaction fees for basic banking services when you do them through the online banking system
3. Functions and services. Choose telephone, web banking with the functionality that best meets your needs.
4. Customer service. It is worth choosing a bank that is ready to provide support not only on working days but also on weekends. Some banks offer technical support and support around the clock
5. Security. Online banking should be safe and protected from fraudulent activities. Usually, such systems have two-factor authentication
6. Look for additional benefits and bonuses. Some banks are generous with them
