The low penetration of mobile banking in Malaysia, especially in terms of adoption patterns is becoming the research interest, especially when compared to the total number of cellular telephone subscriptions, which recorded the highest number of penetration rates in quarter three of 146.2 percent in 2013. Although the number of cellular telephone users is huge, yet the mobile banking penetration rate was just 12.7 percent last year against the total population. This implies that those who employ the mobile banking market is still the minority. Thus, more effort needs to be practiced to amend the number of users and penetration rate of mobile banking.

The findings of this study are very important for the banking services in Malaysia to have a better outcome and strategy to increase the penetration rate of mobile banking users.
