  1. Internet banking has become another regular sales/service channel for banks, just like the ATM machine and the bank branch. One major advantage of this channel is that banks can observe and track what users are clicking on, what they are more interested in, and perhaps use this knowledge to personalize the information and the marketing messages to each customer.
