Background & Aims: Through reducing costs and increasing bank profitability, increasing the speed in providing services to customers, and easy and round-the-clock access of customers to services, electronic banking has been able to free itself from the restrictions of time and place and create a special economic position for itself. In today's competitive world, banks should pay the most attention to their needs, opinions, and objections about banking services to keep their customers and they should know that in banking, the customer's voice is the voice on which the bank's policies should be formed. In between, honoring customers, proper interaction with customers, surveying customers, having a proper two-way relationship with customers, investigating customer problems and handling their complaints promptly, being aware of customer satisfaction, increasing the quality and speed of service delivery, adapting the bank's policies to the needs customers, verifying the accuracy of the services provided to customers, etc., can greatly help banks in retaining customers, and this will not be possible unless the bank accepts that paying attention to customers is the key to their longevity. Loyalty is a type of positive attitude toward an entity (brand, service, shop, or seller) and supportive behavior toward it. Based on this, it can be said that loyalty refers to a strong commitment to repurchase a product or a superior service in the future, in such a way that the same brand or product is purchased despite the influence and potential marketing efforts of competitors. Loyalty, the researchers stated, means maintaining a deep commitment to repurchase or reselect a product or service, continuously in the future, despite situational influences and marketing efforts potentially changing customer behavior. Due to the importance of users in the online environment, creating electronic loyalty has been raised as a necessary challenge, and due to the many competitions in today's electronic world, it is a fundamental issue to provide a model for maintaining and keeping customers in the housing bank; Therefore, it is important to examine the consequences of electronic loyalty in the banking industry, because despite the research conducted in the field of electronic banking and also the influence of factors affecting loyalty, few studies have investigated the consequences of electronic loyalty in the banking industry, and accordingly, due to the lack of research related to Organizational issues and issues in the field of e-banking, this research tries to solve the challenges facing e-banking regarding the consequences of the e-loyalty of Maskan Bank users and to investigate what factors are the consequences of e-loyalty of customers in Maskan Bank?
Methods: According to the purpose and topic of the research, a mixed method (qualitative-quantitative) has been used in this research, and considering the nature of the presentation of the performance management model, it is considered mixed exploratory research, which has the code of ethics IR.IAU.SARI.REC.1403.111 The code of ethics of the Islamic Azad University of Sari branch was approved by the commission. The statistical population of the research is all the data and professional knowledge present in branches active in the field of electronic banking in Khorasan Razavi Housing Bank and the results of the researcher's observations as well as the results of interviews with the experiences of technology and information experts of Khorasan Razavi Housing Bank, which can be found in the qualitative section. The statistical population includes the following; All technology and information experts of Maskan Bank of Khorasan Razavi province, based on indicators, such as educational qualification, work experience, and management experience in leading banks in the field of electronic banking, age, and job position. The statistical population in the quantitative part are electronic customers who use the electronic banking services of Khorasan Razavi Housing Bank branches. The sample size in qualitative research is not known in advance and the sample is selected purposefully. The sample size is closely related to the degree of saturation; However, due to the importance of variables such as education, employment and experience, we have tried to achieve maximum diversity in terms of sample selection; Therefore, taking into account that in this research we will have twice the sample size in the first stage and in the qualitative part based on the snowball technique and based on the principle of saturation with technology and information experts of Housing Bank of Khorasan Razavi province who are known as innovators or secretly have innovated, an interview will be conducted, and then the consequences of electronic customer loyalty in the banking industry were identified, and in the quantitative part of the statistical population, there were 384 customers using Maskan Bank's electronic banking services, whose content validity was confirmed by experts and construct validity was analyzed It is a confirmatory factor as well as its reliability test through Cronbach's alpha. In order to finally be able to identify the consequences of electronic customer loyalty in the banking industry of Maskan Bank.
