The results demonstrate that the purposes of such applications are to foster customer loyalty by presenting operational solutions and portfolio synchronizations. The audience is oriented to an age profile between 26 and 35 years, while the technology strategy responds primarily to the adoption of security and privacy systems. In addition, the ludic experience is gradually adopted by the mobile communication of banking entities, especially in socialization, personalized configuration of the central panel.
