Personalized communication for a deeper customer relationship

Community banks can use transaction data insights to personalize their outreach by, for example, nudging customers to capitalize on unused checking funds with relevant savings options.

Timely, tailored communication enhances conversion rates, while providing financial guidance builds trust, in turn boosting app engagement and the opening of new accounts.

Data-driven product development

Insights from enriched transaction data enable community banks to pinpoint demand for new offerings.

If a bank uncovered a trend of clients opting for competitor savings accounts, for example, it could launch a competitive savings product to attract switchers and engage potential savers proactively.

Strategic responses to consumer behavior allow community banks to increase deposits and deliver on their commitment to customer-centric service.

High conversion upsell and cross-sell

By proactively engaging customers with relevant offers that align with their usage patterns, banks can enhance satisfaction and grow their deposit portfolios through strategic upselling and cross-selling.

Data analysis can identify these opportunities as trends and patterns at customer base level. Cohort insights can then be used to create richly-targeted segments for high impact marketing that increases deposits and wallet share.
