Propensity-to-Pay Models: How Real-Time Consumer Data Drives Better Collection Outcomes
In this series, we’ll dive into how our Intelligent Contact & Payment Center platform can provide the crucial consumer data needed to create personalized and effective communication and payment campaigns based on the intelligence of your company’s own data.
Why Interaction Data is Crucial to Building Effective, Accurate Propensity Models
With consumer touchpoints spread across phone calls, emails, text messages, and chat sessions, companies can struggle to get a clear picture of what drives business success. That’s because the valuable predictive signals needed to truly predict future customer behavior and preferences is missing, scattered, or inaccessible.
This behavioral data, particularly when captured as real-time consumer data, is far more dynamic and revealing than static demographic or credit data.
The Role of Real-Time Consumer Data in Propensity-to-Pay Models
- Frequency and timing of responses to outreach (e.g., calls, emails, or texts).
- Engagement levels on payment portals, including navigation paths, time spent, and actions taken.
- Responsiveness to specific campaigns or payment reminders.
- Preferences for communication channels, such as voice versus email or SMS.
By integrating this real-time data into propensity-to-pay models, businesses gain insights into not only the “who” but also the “how” and “why” of customer payment behaviors.
