Use cases
RibiRewards Payout powers reward programmes across every customer and employee interaction — configured once, running automatically, delivering in local currency on any phone.
Customers — Payment
Send a reward the moment a customer pays their premium before the due date. The reward is cheaper than the churn it prevents — and creates a positive association with paying on time.
Customers — Retention
Reward customers who renew their policy without lapsing. A ₦3,000 renewal reward on a motor policy with a ₦50,000 annual premium has a clear positive ROI.
Customers — Safety
For motor insurance, reward customers who go 6 months without a claim. Incentivises careful driving, reduces claims cost, and builds a positive brand relationship.
Customers — Growth
Send rewards to policyholders who refer new customers. Reward sent when the referred customer completes their first premium payment.
Customers — Channel
Reward customers who switch from in-person premium payment to your app or mobile money. Reduces collection costs significantly.
Customers — Cross-sell
Send a reward when a customer adds a second product — motor plus home, health plus life. Incentivises cross-sell without a discount on the primary product.
From the playbook
Rewards create the ongoing value exchange that doesn't depend on a claim event.
Most policyholders interact with their insurer twice a year. Rewards create the touchpoints that don't otherwise exist.
Micro-insurance has a lapse problem rooted in low perceived value. Rewards fix the equation.
The mechanics that reduce financial product churn — applicable across banking and insurance alike.
