What is SymendPrevent and how does it work?
SymendPrevent is a bill payment protection solution that offers your cured customers access to coverage for up to 6 months in case of job loss, critical illness, disability, or death. After a customer cures through Symend's delinquency engagement, they receive a personalized enrollment offer at the moment when financial awareness is highest, maximizing uptake rates.
What are the financial benefits for my organization?
SymendPrevent generates revenue through a commercial partnership model. Based on 500k monthly delinquencies at 1-3% uptake rate, organizations can expect $900K-$2.5M in new revenue via margin share, $600K-$2M in bad debt offset through claim payouts, totaling $1.5M-$4.5M in financial benefit—all with zero cost, zero risk, and zero IT lift.
How does SymendPrevent reduce customer churn?
SymendPrevent increases customer stickiness by offering embedded coverage that ties customers to your organization. When customers have bill protection, they're less likely to switch providers. Additionally, claim payouts directly offset bad debt by covering your customers' unpaid bills during financial hardship, preventing involuntary churn from service disconnection.
What types of coverage does SymendPrevent offer?
SymendPrevent offers protection for four key life events: Job Loss (involuntary unemployment), Critical Illness (serious medical conditions), Disability (inability to work due to injury or illness), and Life Coverage (protection for beneficiaries). Coverage can pay customer bills for up to 6 months, providing peace of mind during unexpected income disruption.
What operational lift is required to implement SymendPrevent?
Zero. SymendPrevent is designed as an easy add-on to Symend with no operational burden on your team. Symend fully handles end-to-end flows including outreach, enrollment, claims processing, and all customer support—ensuring zero impact on your call centers. Underwriting and claims are handled by major insurers through our partnership model.
Why are customers more likely to enroll through SymendPrevent?
Behavioral science shows that customers who just cured from delinquency are 5x more receptive to protection offers. SymendPrevent leverages this heightened sensitivity to financial risk by offering coverage post-cure—at the exact moment when customers have experienced financial stress and are most aware of the need for protection. Our Delinquency Archetype segmentation ensures personalized offers through optimal channels.
Which industries is SymendPrevent designed for?
SymendPrevent is specifically designed for Telecommunications (high-volume postpaid accounts with regular delinquency cycles), Utilities (customers vulnerable to seasonal income fluctuations), and Financial Services (loan and credit customers seeking income protection). The solution is fully configurable to support your specific business goals.
