Abstract

" Objective - This study investigates the role of customer service support (CSS) in co-creating brand value and enhancing corporate performance in the fintech industry. The research focuses on analyzing the impact of CSS on the customer journey from registration to first deposit. Methodology – The study utilizes historical data analysis and A/B testing. Client data from a leading fintech company is analyzed to compare conversion rates between those who used CSS versus those who did not. An A/B test is then conducted using a specialized support team targeting clients who haven't made a deposit and had less than 2 chats with CSS. Findings – Clients who used CSS before depositing had 5 times higher conversion rates. The A/B test found a 3.1 percentage point (9.3% relative) increase in conversion from using targeted support. Novelty – This study provides new empirical evidence on the impact of CSS as a brand value co-creator in fintech, with a novel methodology to enhance corporate performance. Type of Paper - Empirical"
