Belfius is one of the largest and most trusted banks in Belgium, serving 1 out of 3 Belgian citizens. More than 1.4 million customers use the bank\u2019s mobile app. But insurance is a complicated business, and processing customers’ insurance claims proved to be a time-consuming and challenging process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a problem no more. Thanks to a conversational AI chatbot<\/a> built with Sinch technology, processing insurance claims is smoother than ever \u2013 for both Belfius and its customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Challenge: The need for a customized, digital approach<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Belfius<\/a> aims to serve its customers with \u201can authentic local, digital, and human touch.\u201d So, while the bank knew it had to offer 24-hour-a-day digital services, it also had to make sure this digital approach felt personal, relevant, and reliable. A one-size-fits-all approach wouldn\u2019t do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Insurance claims are notoriously complicated, but the bank wanted the process to be as simple and smooth as possible for its customers. Since most mobile banking customers use the app daily, Belfius decided that the Belfius Mobile Banking app was the perfect place to make this happen. But\u2026how?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Solution: The award-winning chatbot that could<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In Sinch, Belfius found a partner similarly committed to innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sinch Chatlayer.ai platform<\/a> lets companies build a multilingual chatbot with no coding necessary. It\u2019s easy to create intents, expressions, entities, and dialogues with a simple push of a button, bringing conversations to a whole new level. The platform also offers advanced analytics and insights, so companies can see where the conversation is happening and how it can be improved. In short, quality is key!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using the platform, Belfius built myBo: the friendly insurance chatbot, fully integrated into the Belfius Mobile banking app, and the bank\u2019s backend systems. Previously, an insurance claim was time-consuming and complicated for the user to fill out. With myBo, clients can easily select their home address, telephone number, and other details, providing a fully personalized experience <\/a>every step of the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We dare say it\u2019s no surprise that the Belfius Mobile app has won numerous awards for its quality and convenience!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"mybo<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Results: A scalable solution \u2013 with scalable results<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The results were staggering. Over 2,000 claims were processed monthly, saving the customer care team the equivalent of 600 working hours. \u201cThanks to myBo, Belfius Insurance noted an 87.5% increase in conversions, when comparing the filed claims using myBo to the traditional insurance claim forms.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oh, and insurance claims isn\u2019t the only area Belfius uses the power of Sinch Chatlayer.ai. They also built Bbot, which helps Belfius Banking clients with all their questions related to daily banking. With 5,000 questions answered monthly, they were able to offer clients 24\/7 availability. Got questions about payments, how to transfer money abroad, fees, etc.? Bbot has you covered!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
