BNP Paribas Fortis has chosen Worldline to set up and operate its omni-channel Contact Service Center

As a service partner, Worldline will also route the transactions across all channels, allowing the 8,000 BNP Paribas Fortis business managers within Customer Relationship Centers and in branches to focus on voice, email, chat, social media, and videophone interaction with their customers.  WL Contact complies with the highest IT security and data protection standards and is deployed in SaaS mode, integrating seamlessly with BNP Paribas Fortis’ information systems. The solution employs cutting-edge contact center technologies, such as natural language processing, artificial intelligence, and chatbots.

All BNP Paribas Fortis employees will be able to access WL Contact from their office, a branch, at home or on the move (via a mobile phone), as it is available at all times and in all circumstances via a multilingual interface in French, Dutch, English or German.

Daniel de Clerck, COO of BNP Paribas Fortis: "We chose Worldline to build and operate our CSC program in SaaS mode after a lengthy selection process that included an in-depth functional and technical evaluation of WL Contact. This will be a game-changer for BNP Paribas Fortis, and the CSC program will help us to transform the relationship between our bank and our customers, irrespective of their location or the way they contact us."

Marc-Henri Desportes, Deputy CEO of Worldline: “We are delighted to be working with BNP Paribas Fortis again. The trust they have shown in us is a major endorsement of our market positioning and our strategy of offering customer interaction services around the world to our major banking clients. We help them deliver on their digital transformation strategy and increase the satisfaction level of their customers by providing a prompt and appropriate response to each request, regardless of the channel customers decide to use. Our strategy of rolling out WL Contact across Europe and serving leading financial institutions has taken a major step forward with BNP Paribas Fortis’ decision.”
