Mobile banking is a technological advancement that provides banking services by means
of a telecommunication device. This involves communicating with the bank to manage the
account in order to obtain specific data or process a transaction. Small enterprises have
adopted this digital development to their business operations with the intention of enhancing the
management of their finances. This study was conducted from August 2021 to June 2022 to
investigate the associated risks and benefits of advanced mobile banking technology for
selected small enterprises in Dasmariņas City, Cavite.
Specifically, it was conducted to: 1. describe the business profile of small enterprises; 2.
describe how often small enterprises use advanced mobile banking technology; 3. identify the
types of mobile banking technology frequently used by enterprises; 4. describe advanced
mobile banking in terms of usability and convenience; accessibility and control features; security
and safety; and transaction costs; 5. describe how risky is advanced mobile banking technology;
6. describe how beneficial is advanced mobile banking technology; and 7. determine if there is a
significant difference between the risks and benefits. The research process was conducted
using a quantitative approach employing a descriptive-comparative design. Fifty participants
who engaged in mobile banking were selected using purposive sampling. The majority form of
business organization among small enterprises is the sole proprietorship, which employs 3 to 4
people that have been running their businesses for either 0 to 2 years or 3 to 5 years. The study
revealed that small enterprises perceived mobile banking as highly beneficial and with very low
risk. It is very evident that it is useful and convenient, secure and safe, cost-effective and offers
great features that are accessible to the users.
