Nowadays, time flies by and as we often say: “Lost time cannot be replaced”. So when you want something today, you want to have it right now. This desire is all the more present with the influence of the internet, which continues to fuel our desires with an ever faster, ever more efficient and ever more practical communication.

The key words for this generation are young, connected and connected. The most perfect example of this new wave are those who use mobile devices or mobile users, as we are used to saying, there are billions of people on earth who use these gadgets while moving around non-stop. We know that in 2014, almost 60% of young Quebecers, aged approximately between 18 and 34, consulted their bank account through a mobile device and that almost 50% of them made at least one financial transaction using one of these portable devices. But this no longer only concerns young people, today, 38% of adults between the ages of 35 and 44 also make transactions via a mobile device, another sign that this practice is spreading like wildfire.
