History
National Online Bank Day was first celebrated in 2015, founded by the American banking holding company Ally Bank in honor of its millionth customer. Online banking services were first launched in the early 1980s, with users being able to take out loans, view their account balances and use financial calculators. By the end of the decade, the services had become essential and the range of services had greatly expanded. Initially, many people hesitated to use the services due to fears of their data being accessed by intruders, however these fears have since dissipated.
