Advantages of SMS for Insurance

In the insurance industry, it’s critical that customers understand their policies and stay up to date on their premium payments. If a client files a claim, they want to know when it will be processed and when they can expect reimbursement. SMS streamlines communication and helps you stay connected to current, past and future clients.

Claim Status Updates

Claim Status Updates

Whether it's for medical treatment, home repair or an auto accident, clients want to know the status of their claim. SMS makes it easy to keep your clients up to date. You can send messages when the claim is received, moves to a new review phase, when payments are processed and much more.

Payment Reminders

Payment Reminders

Insurance premiums often get paid annually or semi-annually. It can be easy for clients to lose track of time and miss a payment or pay late. With automated payment reminders, you can send clients a gentle nudge when their payment is due. If they don't pay on time, a follow-up text can remind them of the due date and provide them with actionable steps.

Renewal Reminders

It's more cost-effective for insurance companies to retain current clients than continually seek out new ones. Sending renewal reminders via text makes it more likely for your existing clients to renew their policies. You can send reminders in phases by submitting an initial reminder a month or so before the policy expires and a more urgent message a day or two before.
