To succeed in today’s complex collections environment, your outreach strategy needs more than simple automation. More accurate data and a consumer-first approach that helps you comply with regulations are what drive better results and reduces the cost to collect.
Collections teams compete for the same limited repayment dollars. Outdated account details and one-size-fits-all customer outreach puts your organization at a serious disadvantage and increases compliance risk.
Contact data goes stale fast. On average, 12% of Americans move each year, which translates to tens of millions of address changes annually.1 Without regular data updates, you’re likely wasting time contacting wrong parties or doing manual research to find the correct information. Eliminate inefficient contact attempts and improve success rates with multiple tools that help keep data current and more complete.
Consumers aren’t powerless. They can ignore, block or disregard your collections outreach. When you have their contact information at your fingertips, you can try reaching them through their preferred channel, increasing the likelihood your message gets through and the consumer is more likely to be receptive.
Regulatory scrutiny is escalating. By early 2025, the CFPB had already enforced $5 billion in penalties and over $19 billion in consumer relief, making accurate contact and compliance non-negotiable.2 Don’t take unnecessary risks. Stay ahead of costly penalties with tools that support regulatory adherence.
