<p style="text-align:justify;">This study aims to&nbsp;identify the technological readiness variables associated with the quality&nbsp;perceived by customers who use digital services offered by banking institutions operating in Brazil. Descriptive quantitative research, in cross-section, with&nbsp;a sample of 958 clients of financial institutions operating in Brazil. The data were analysed&nbsp;using Structural Equation Modelling and multigroup analysis using SmartPLS.&nbsp;Given the growth of Fintech driven by disruptive technologies, traditional&nbsp;banking segments are looking for a competitive advantage to retain their&nbsp;customers. The findings showed that optimism and innovativeness have a positive&nbsp;influence on perceived quality. In contrast, discomfort with functional and&nbsp;physical risk, discomfort with embarrassment, and insecurity with information&nbsp;have a negative influence on perceived quality. Insecurity due to lack of&nbsp;contact does not influence the quality perceived by customers. There are also&nbsp;no differences regarding the gender and income of customers and the type of&nbsp;&nbsp;bank with whom they have a relationship, only in the group between public and&nbsp;private banks in the relationship between innovativeness and perceived quality.&nbsp;However, the explanatory power of the model indicates that other factors also&nbsp;impact this relationship. Although Fintech is growing at an accelerated pace,&nbsp;traditional bank customers seek other factors that impact perceived quality. In&nbsp;this way, it shows that traditional banks can consider other organisational&nbsp;actions to retain customers in addition to disruptive technologies.</p>
