Experian: ‘What’s Taking So Long?’ 51% of Customers Are Fed-up with Lengthy Digital Onboarding Process

Experian Credit3D delivers the most comprehensive and innovative suite of credit data and insight solutions in the market

New research from Experian has revealed that most customers (51%) are so fed-up with slow sign-up processes that many will simply abandon their application.

At the same time, 74% of businesses say that improving customer experience is a critical or high priority, however 28% admit they are not sure they offer a friction-free service to customers. Just 35% are using automation to help them make accurate decisions about new customers, which can radically speed up processes by removing the need for human involvement.

The findings come as the world’s leading information services provider announces an extension to Experian Credit3D, building in new capabilities that will enable businesses to get a definitive view of their customers and deliver a frictionless experience, offering greater confidence in an uncertain economic climate.

Offering a frictionless and fluid customer journey is vital for any organisation that is serious about keeping their customers happy in a fast-paced digitalised world. Our research shows that without it, your hard-earned prospects will simply go elsewhere.

This gives businesses the power to deliver an all-in-one product journey and equips them with the insight to make truly informed business decisions.
