How to Seize the Payments Opportunity

HubSpot Video

For laggards, payments are an operational burden. For leaders, payments are a center of excellence that drives retention, decreases cost, and reduces risk.

What are the leaders doing, and how do you become one? Watch and read to learn how to build an industry-leading payments operation by tackling the big three problems in insurance payments.

Tackling the Big Three Problems in Insurance Payments

Icon: Number 1

Retention & Persistency

Policyholders can walk away at any time. Payments are the centerpiece of your retention and persistency efforts, and must be treated as such.

Icon: Number 2

Admin Expenses

Between processing fees, network security resources, compliance procedures, and time spent reconciling, admin expenses add up quickly.

Icon: Number 3

Risk of Data Breach

A data breach isn't just a PR nightmare; it's a breach of trust between you and your customers. It's also an expensive mess to clean up.

Number 1 Retention & Persistency

HubSpot Video

In the mind of the consumer, insurance companies don't get a pass on customer experience just because they belong to an "old school" industry. It's time to evolve with the times.

To start the process of delivering a better customer experience, you should begin with payments, because:

  1. They touch every customer,
  2. They are the most frequent interaction insurance companies have with policyholders, and
  3. They are the most painful interaction policyholders have with their insurer.

Number 2Admin Expenses

HubSpot Video

Buried in your combined ratio is a line-item called "Admin Expense." If you unpack your admin expenses, you'll likely find the operational cost of taking payments is higher than you thought.

The drivers of cost are:

  1. Processing Fees - Are you getting the best deal?
  2. Network Security - How much time is your IT team spending on preventing payment data from being stolen?
  3. Compliance Procedures - How much did you spend last year on audits and penetration tests for PCI compliance? 
  4. Time-to-Reconcile - How many hours per week does your finance team spend reconciling?

Number 3Risk of Data Breach

HubSpot Video

Anytime money is changing hands online, there is a risk of data theft. The question is, how do you minimize that risk? Failure to implement modern security and compliance measures leads to:

  1. PR nightmare - This one speaks for itself.
  2. Loss of trust - It's bad all around. Your customers won't trust you, and neither will banks and card companies.
  3. Loss of money - The average cost of a data breach in 2017 was $3.62 million (Ponemon Institute). Ouch.
