What Are Virtual Agents for Accounts/Membership Services?

AI-powered virtual agents use conversational AI to automate the routine conversations traditionally handled by live agents. With SmartAction’s Omni-Bot™ feature, organizations typically start in voice, where the ROI is the greatest, then scale the same experience to chat or text for a complete omnichannel self-service strategy.

There are nearly a dozen repetitive processes related to customer accounts & memberships that can be automated and fully contained using virtual agents. Offload these routine calls and chats from customer service reps to AI-powered virtual agents.

What is the Customer Experience Like with a Virtual Agent?

Scenario 1: Account Authentication with Live Agent Transfer

Bailey rarely reviews her utility bill because it is usually the same amount every month. But since it’s been so cold, she has been using her heat a lot more, so when the bill arrived to her email address this week, she took a closer look. She saw a few charges she didn’t recognize and decided to give the provider a call during her lunch break.
Scenario 2: Update Address

Moving is exciting, but it can also be a hassle. Peter knows this first hand, as he recently moved and is going through the process of updating the shipping and billing address on all of his accounts. For most of the accounts, he makes updates online. But as he is walking around his new neighborhood with the dog, he remembers that he needs to update his address with his insurance company. Peter finds the company’s customer service number and calls while on his walk…
Scenario 3: Claiming Rewards

Michelle was listening to the radio when she heard about a deal too good to pass up: switch wireless carriers and receive a $200 reward card. With her boyfriend’s birthday coming up, the extra money will help her buy a nice gift. She makes the switch in her local store, and on her way home, she calls to claim the reward card. When a virtual agent greets her, she is skeptical but decides to give it a try.

Sample Accounts/Membership Services Conversation

Virtual Agent

Thanks for calling Viserion. I found an account tied to the number you’re calling from. Is this Jeremy Jones?

Virtual agent is jacked-in to your customer data and offers personalized greetings based on caller ID.
Customer

Yes it is.

72% of customers expect you to know them when they call.
Virtual Agent

Great. For security purposes, I need to verify your account. What is the zip code on your account?

Account authentication can verify SSN, zip code, account number, or any other personal identification info you choose.
Customer

Oh eight oh three nine.

If a customer didn’t have this information, the virtual agent would ask for another piece of personal data for account verification.
Virtual Agent

Thanks. How can I help you today?

Natural language intent capture.
Customer

I need to reset my password.

The virtual agent is listening for one of several intents. The most routine call types will stay with the virtual agent while the rest will be transferred to agents.
Virtual Agent

I can help you reset your password by sending you a text message with a link to our reset password page. Are you calling from a mobile number?

Omnichannel integration allows the virtual agent to send texts while remaining on the phone with customers.
Customer

Yes.

If this was not a mobile number, the virtual agent would go down a different path based on that response.
Virtual Agent

Got it. I will send the text now. Let me know when you receive the text and are ready to continue.
Customer

Ok continue.
Virtual Agent

Please click the link in the text message and follow the steps to reset your password. If you’re having trouble, call back and I’ll get you to a specialist who can offer further assistance. Is there anything else for today?

If Jeremy called back, short-term memory within the AI helps the virtual agent recognize the number and offer a proactive greeting to get him immediate help.
Customer

No, that should be it.
Virtual Agent

Thanks for calling Viserion. Have a great day.
