THE CHALLENGES

In just seven years, PayPal experienced astronomical growth, expanding their customer base from two million to more than 179 million. Despite the organization’s exceptional rise to success, their current technology created many challenges, including:

  • An outdated telephone system that was separate from chat and email

  • Overwhelming call volume, resulting in massive backlogs and call abandonment

  • Customer data that was missing historic and real-time information

  • Difficulty complying with federal, state, local, and international regulations

A One-Touch Solution and Transparent Customer View

PTP took a dual-purpose approach to resolve the issues created by PayPal’s current systems, going above and beyond to address their needs and wants alike. Our implementation and solution included:

  • Detailed System Assessment

    Locating contact center gaps and devising solutions for technology and task management.

  • A Modern IVR System

    Improved call routing, decreasing transfers and abandonment.

  • A Custom App

    Allowed customers to make mobile payments and connect with customer service, furthering multichannel capabilities.
