Optimize Onboarding to Maximize Revenue

Optimize Onboarding to Maximize Revenue

Markets around the world have shifted from a growth-at-all-costs mentality to a more targeted approach that emphasizes onboarding the right customers while decreasing acquisition costs. But costs alone don’t tell the whole story. Successful customer onboarding strategies take into account risk tolerance, user experience, abandonment rates, operational costs, and the lifetime value of a good customer.

In this webinar, we’ll share how some of the world’s leading fintechs have optimized their onboarding to realize double-digit verification rate increases in key markets, improve onboarding rates, and gain significant operational savings.

Zac Cohen from Trulioo will share firsthand insights, including:

  • Key strategies to immediately optimize onboarding
  • How analytics changes the game for consumer and business verification
  • Real-world examples of how optimization can improve performance, speed, and the customer experience

Efficiencies deployed only during lean times can lead to short-term gains. But optimization with an eye toward the future can drive a long-term competitive advantage.

Building the Foundations for Next-Gen Technology to Transform Customer Experience

Building the Foundations for Next-Gen Technology to Transform Customer Experience

Finovate webinar, in collaboration with InterSystems, Thu 12 Oct, 3pm BST / 10am ET

How can financial services firms improve the client journey and experience? Next-generation technologies that advance digital transformation are at the heart of that answer, but these rely on the firm’s ability to gather and analyze all available data across the business.

By now, many in financial services will have adopted technologies such as AI, ML, and analytics to enhance the experience their customers receive. However, to reach their full potential, they depend heavily on a solid data technology platform to build, train, and continuously improve model quality and predictions.

Hyper-personalization can foster loyalty in an era in which loyalty has declined, and it pushes customers and investors towards those firms which can be agile in what they offer. This level of hyper-personalization offers immense growth opportunities for all providers if they can cater to small and specific groups – but on a large scale.

Watch this webinar and learn from the experts:

  • How to achieve competitive differentiation by delivering better customer experiences.
  • How to optimize your existing infrastructure with a smart data fabric.
  • How other firms are building these data foundations and the results of their deployment.

On the panel:

  • Joe Lichtenberg, Global Head of Product and Industry Marketing, InterSystems
  • Virginie O’Shea, CEO and Founder, Firebrand Research

Digital Identity: Fintech’s Key to Unlocking Growth

Digital Identity: Fintech’s Key to Unlocking Growth

In today’s digital-first environment, fraud threats are growing in sophistication and scope, and risks of online and financial crime have intensified. At the same time, fintechs are prioritizing growth, and need to do so in a way that is safe, secure, and keeps bad actors out. 

Watch back on this Finovate webinar, with Experian Chief Innovation Officer for Decision Analytics Kathleen Peters, as she explores the meaning of digital identity, and how fintechs can leverage identity-proofing strategies to position themselves for growth without diminishing security. Learn:

  • The role of digital identities in advancing increased personalization, speed, and growth responsibly in fintech and financial services
  • How data can aid in making smart, risk-based decisions across the user journey 
  • How to unlock financial growth opportunities by offering solutions to previously unavailable consumers due to verification constraints

Onboarding: Customizing the User Journey

Onboarding: Customizing the User Journey

The first step of the customer journey is often a user’s onboarding on a platform or application. This critical phase predicates how a user interacts with a business, and often cements their first impression and subsequent brand loyalty.

Identity verification plays an important role in ensuring a user exists and is who they say they are. But businesses must strike a fine balance of friction and convenience. Too little friction in the identity verification process might result in bad actors flooding in. This can damage a business’s reputation, and give the impression that a platform is unsafe. Too much friction might result in user frustration and attrition.

How can businesses seamlessly and securely onboard users? Orchestration holds the key to unlocking customer-centric practices, customizing the user journey, and ultimately ensuring legitimate users are allowed in while bad actors are stopped.

Watch this webinar featuring Hal Lonas, Trulioo Chief Technology Officer, on

  • What identity proofing orchestration entails and how active and passive methods of authentication can be layered during the onboarding process
  • How orchestration goes hand-in-hand with a risk-based approach to onboarding and establishing trust and safety between businesses and users
  • What business, customer risk, and regulatory factors to consider when adopting a risk-based approach 

Driving World-Class SME Lending Experiences

Driving World-Class SME Lending Experiences

How to power rapid approvals and accelerate your SME lending processes

Forty-four percent of SMEs look to funding to meet operating expenses, with this number expected to grow considerably during times of economic uncertainty. Fifty-six percent of SMEs seek funds to expand business operations or to pursue new market opportunities. But waiting months or even weeks for credit approval and funding can mean the difference between innovation and business closure.

Traditional financial services organizations may find lending to SMEs difficult, but fintechs are rising to the challenge. Simplified application processes, rapid approvals, and access to funds quickly makes working with digital lenders an obviously attractive choice. 

Because if you aren’t making it easy for SMEs to get the credit they need, your competitors will.

Catch up on this panel discussion with industry experts, in collaboration with Provenir, and discover how to:
•    Power faster, simplified application processes 
•    Make smarter, faster decisions and get to market faster
•    Future-proof your decision technology to keep up as market trends/demands evolve
•    Use advanced, predictive analytics like AI to keep risk in check

Bridging the Gap: Connecting Banks with Fintech Applications to Accelerate Innovation

Bridging the Gap: Connecting Banks with Fintech Applications to Accelerate Innovation

The rate of innovation within the financial services sector has increased dramatically. As traditional financial services organizations attempt to keep pace, they often leverage technology from fintech providers to quickly develop or provision new cloud-based applications.

As a result, over half of fintechs globally are looking to implement new technologies that will support financial service organizations to better meet customer demand, enhance agility, and improve competitiveness. 

In order to achieve these goals, financial services organizations need to be able to easily leverage and provision new fintech services and applications, and to seamlessly integrate their existing production applications and data sources with these applications.

This is where a real-time bidirectional data gateway comes in.

This webinar will discuss how a seamless connection between cloud-based fintech applications and financial services customers’ production applications and data assets will enable faster innovation to execute a wide range of business initiatives, from offering more personalized services tailored to individual customers to streamlining operations and improving compliance with regulations.
