People want convenient access to banking services. Agency banking does this, especially in suburban and rural areas where branches and ATMs are few and far between. Customers appreciate the touch points and are willing to pay for convenience.
Leverage the network of agents to facilitate smoother loan collections. Provide customers the convenience for repaying their loans on time, and reward customers for their loyalty. Direct benefits to the bank include lower operational cost, greater risk reduction, and the ability to sell new products to customers.
Agents assist customers in performing transactions and aid them through the transaction experience. They naturally educate customers to facilitate new account opening and also capture loan applications.
Remove paper from the account opening and KYC processes; all steps are automated and electronic. Capture data online, photograph IDs, documents, and electronically capture signatures. No transcription errors, no loss of documents, direct online authorization. Even if a paper copy is required for regulatory compliance, the platform generates pre-filled PDFs and only the physical signature of the customer is required.

Reduce cost of loan collections by providing convenient places (agent networks) and methods to pay (cash or card).
