Financial Assistant works by solving common digital banking problems for financial institutions, such as:  

• Low customer engagement on web and mobile platforms 
• High customer churn rates

CASHOFF’s Financial Assistant gets to work to increase customer engagement, customer retention and cross sales 

We enable banks to aid their customers financial reporting, with Personal Finance Management (PFM) analysis reporting and charts. 

This helps customers manage their income and expenditure. To set budgets and to ensure they meet their financial goals. 

Financial Assistant utilises smart advice from transaction and receipt analysis.  Proving accurate and individualised cross-selling opportunities within web and mobile applications.

Therefore, matching customer goals and budgets to relevant banking products and services. 

This approach provides. 

• Complete data refinement of customer transactions. Including logos of stores, location and even receipt analysis. 

• An increase of 31% of customer app engagement.  With a 42% increase in average session times.
