Acceptance-side opportunities
Efficiency opportunities can include acceptance of alternative payment methods; improvements in fraud prevention policies and processes; improvements in back-office activities such as chargeback processing, and rationalization of the contractual relationships with local and global banks and other payment providers. |
Issuing-side opportunities
Large multichannel retailers have customer bases and brands that could be leveraged via issuing-side opportunities. For instance, this might include gift card or co-branded credit card programs to build brand loyalty and can generate hundred of millions of dollars through appropriate customer service and customer portfolio management, and with innovation, such as an e-wallet. |
Project approach
A 360° Payment Diagnostic typically involves an elapsed time of 5-6 weeks with on-site interviews, reviews of relevant documentation and a quantitative data request. In order to limit the workload for the merchant, EDC can obtain some of the relevant data directly from GlobalCollect (following the merchant's approval). |
Deliverables
The diagnostic results not only in a report highlighting key gaps and cost reduction / revenue opportunities, but also in an interactive workshop to ensure knowledge transfer and a relevant prioritization of potential opportunities. |
