Evolution of collections

Published: October 5, 2017 by Guest Contributor

The collections space has been migrating from traditional mail and outbound calls to electronic payment portals, digital collections and virtual negotiators. Now that collectors have had time to test virtual collections, we’ve collected some data points. Here are a few:

  • On average, 52% of consumers who visit a digital site will proceed to a payment schedule if the right offer is made.
  • 21% of the visits were outside the core hours of 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., an indication that traditional business hours don’t always work.
  • Of the consumers who committed to a payment plan, only 56% did it in a single visit. The remaining 44% did so mostly later that day or on a subsequent day.

As more financial institutions test this new virtual approach, we anticipate customer satisfaction and resolutions will continue to climb.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book.

Text legacy

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source.
