The number of users on online banking in Romania went up three times in the last three years, according to a study cited by automated banking machines provider Keba Romania.

The online banking user ratio grew from 2% to 6%, but Romania still ranks second-to-last in the region on this, before Serbia. In the Czech Republic, about 62% people use the online banking whereas in Austria, the percentage amounts to 55%.

Romanians use Internet banking mostly to check their accounts but prefer the self-service areas or the banking units for cash payments, deposits, or withdrawals.
