Background of the Study
In recent years, digital banking has become an essential aspect of the financial sector, especially in rural areas like Ankpa LGA, Kogi State. The rise of mobile applications for banking has made financial services more accessible, particularly for individuals who may not have easy access to traditional banking infrastructure. However, despite the availability of mobile banking apps, a significant proportion of the population in rural areas remains hesitant to adopt digital banking. One of the primary factors influencing this hesitancy is the lack of awareness about the benefits and ease of using digital banking platforms. Mobile app advertising, which utilizes smartphones and other mobile devices to reach potential users, is a key strategy for encouraging the adoption of digital banking services. Mobile advertising can provide targeted messaging that highlights the benefits, convenience, and security of digital banking. This study will explore the effectiveness of mobile app advertising in encouraging the adoption of digital banking in Ankpa LGA, Kogi State.
