Self-Service Account Access with Security
Enable Customers to Self-Service
Banks, classic and digital, and financial institutions need to grow their customer base, and customers want more services to be satisfied. Therefore, banks must improve their technologies to attract and appeal to customers by upgrading systems and adding new features that enable self-service.
Allowing customers, including Millennials and Gen Z, to interact with their bank through automated options, whether online or via phone, is not an option anymore. It is a requirement as customers are becoming more accustomed to self-service options to review their account information and make transactions.
Reduce Operational Costs & Improve Satisfaction
A bank reduces operational expenses by employing interactive voice response (IVR) systems with conversational AI to maintain a live customer service staff. These virtual agents don't replace employees. Instead, they augment their role. In turn, employee efficiency and satisfaction improve, which leads to better customer engagement and problem resolution.
According to Gartner, conversational artificial intelligence (AI) deployments within contact centers will reduce agent labor costs by $80 billion by 2026.
Plum Voice provides PCI-DSS Level 1 and SOC2 compliant IVR banking features for enhanced data security.
