The longer your customers have to wait in your call center, the worse their customer experience is going to be. At the same time, long identity verification processes rack up opex (~$3.60 per call). This means that your pass rate (the percentage of your customers that can be greenlighted or ‘passed’ without friction) could mean the difference between boosting a customer’s satisfaction and losing them to a competitor. The big question is which technologies to invest in to ensure that your customers are able to get through to you quickly and with the best customer experience.
