SINGAPORE - 16 December 2019 - Etiqa Insurance has unveiled their latest offering of Cancer Insuranc
SINGAPORE - Media OutReach - October 8, 2018 - Going beyond traditional communication channels, Etiqa Insurance Singapore takes the lead to service local customers with their insurance needs via the popular instant messaging application WhatsApp. With this initiative, Etiqa becomes the first digital insurer in Singapore to provide customer care services that answer personal policy enquiries in addition to general enquiries via WhatsApp Business.
Both existing and new customers can now interact with Etiqa directly and conveniently, in the way they are accustomed to communicate with family and friends. They can also make policy change requests such as travel insurance period extension requests in real-time, as compared to the traditional hotline and email approaches where waiting times are usually longer.
"Having direct communication with our customer base is becoming extremely important in today's landscape. We are constantly working towards a seamless customer service experience for our customers, leveraging on tools such as WhatsApp messenger", said Mycle Ku, Head of Customer Care of Etiqa Insurance Pte. Ltd. As of third quarter 2017, WhatsApp messenger was the most popular social network in Singapore with a 73% penetration rate. (Source, Statista)
Ku added, "With WhatsApp as another official communication platform to connect and interact with our customers, we believe we can create more meaningful engagements with our customers while meeting their real-time queries and needs." In addition to facilitating conversations between businesses and customers, WhatsApp Business features automation tools, messaging statistics, and end-to-end encryption that will enable businesses to better understand their clients and improve service delivery.
All services available via phone calls are now available through WhatsApp messenger. This is in addition to the existing communication channels including email, and Etiqa's first Chatbot Trix, which is available on the insurer's website www.etiqa.com.sg, Facebook Messenger, and can be connected via Google Assistant.
Customers who wish to make enquiries via WhatsApp may connect with Etiqa Customer Care team at 8677-8780. The service is available on weekdays, 8:45am to 5:30pm.
