Receivables management with artificial intelligence: BavariaDirekt pilots fintech application from PAIR Finance

Munich/Berlin – May 5, 2021 – The digital insurer BavariaDirekt is the first company in the Versicherungskammer Group to test the receivables management system developed by PAIR Finance on the basis of artificial intelligence (AI). BavariaDirekt is thus consistently expanding its competencies as a digital insurer.

With PAIR Finance’s technology, all BavariaDirekt customers can easily and securely manage outstanding receivables on their smartphones. They are directed to a personalized payment page and can not only settle bills within a minute, but also create individual installment payment plans.

With the additional help of data science and insights from behavioral research, insured persons are addressed via a wide variety of communication channels and sensitized to pay the overdue debt. In this way, even after all deadlines have expired, they are spared legal dunning proceedings – and possible costs for a lawyer and court. Instead, they are shown possible solutions.

PAIR Finance is one of the first service providers to work entirely with AI. State-of-the-art link generation technology and personalized QR codes ensure absolute data security and protection against unauthorized access. All technical solutions strictly comply with the standards of the General Data Protection Regulation.

BavariaDirekt benefits from self-service functions such as the intelligent “PAIR Finance Analytics” performance tool, which uses interactive data visualizations to provide real-time insight into the development of the receivables portfolio. This provides more feedback and an improved cash flow through a targeted and customer-oriented approach, and is cost-neutral for BavariaDirekt.

We are delighted to have PAIR Finance as a partner who will help us to optimize BavariaDirekt’s digital customer collection journey. We expect both high customer satisfaction and optimal payment returns from the collaboration.

Iris John is responsible for BavariaDirekt’s receivables management within the Versicherungskammer Group.

We are delighted that BavariaDirekt is taking this pioneering step with us. PAIR Finance is oriented towards social change, which has accelerated again in recent months: Mobile internet, online insurance and digital payment methods are demanded by a growing number of people. Debt collection must therefore also be digital and personalized for insurance companies. We see the partnership as proof that our AI-based approach is gaining further importance in the insurance market.
