Why should banks use chatbots?



1. Save Costs:

Chatbots are comparatively inexpensive to develop and maintain compared to a human equivalent.

Chatbots require less coding than banking apps and do not require expensive data storage as information can be stored on cloud-based systems.

2. Ease to use and integrates with any application or software:

Chatbots can be trained to keep learning and developing based on past conversations. On the other hand banking apps need to be downloaded, updated and they take up phone space.

With chatbots, no downloads are required and the experience can be personalized over a period of time with the help of machine learning. Chatbots use natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning to determine user intent and make customers feel like they are talking to another human being.

While with mobile apps, users have to navigate through various menu options and do a lot of digging around. Chatbots eliminate the confusion by communicating smoothly with users and provide them with the required information.

3. Engaging, conversational interface:

Customers find phone calls frustrating. They are looking for an easy solution to their problems and want their issues to be resolved quickly. With chatbots, financial organisations can offer their customers both a speedy and personalised experience.

4. Advice and Information:

Chatbots can track spending habits, provide credit scores, set and manage budgets.

It could also share money-saving tips or financial planning advice, offer details about a new credit card, or allow users to locate their nearest branch or ATM.

5. Attract new customers:

Website visitors can be greeted, invited to ask questions, and pointed in the right direction where they can find appropriate information, this engagement is more likely to result in a new account opening.

6. 24/7 Support:

Customers no longer have to visit a branch, make a phone call, or wait for business hours for routine questions and tasks. Chatbots are available to provide the same level of helpful, personalized customer service at any time, on-demand.

7. Provide Suggestions and Feedback:

Bots also make it easy to gather feedback from users which can be used to improve the service.
