To tap into the 4.0 trend, Hanwha Life Vietnam has recently announced the completion of digital ecosystem by automating insurance procedures to serve customers and sales force. Accordingly, insurance procedures are now being automatically processed on online platforms such as Customer Portal, multi-channel customer service centres, digital premium payment, and quick compensation JetClaim.

In consequence, customers can feel more convenient with the Customer Portal’s management functions, up-to-date policy-related information, as well as request deposit from policy value and online payment. To be more understood and interact better with customers, Hanwha Life Vietnam has introduced the Contact Centre in September to support customers via multiple channels such as telephone, text message, internet, social media, and email.

Not only bringing many utilities, the Customer app enhances the experience, bringing more added values and creating a complete ecosystem for customers on digital platforms.

One of the biggest goals of digital transformation is to improve sales force efficiency. Accordingly, FC portal, Zalo official account for salesforce, automated sales platform, and an e-learning platform will be completed soon. The highlights of the business intelligence platform and automation is the integration of useful tools such as e-learning, online sales, e-recruitment, and e-counselling to help the sales force provide professional and effective services to customers.

Working towards the target of becoming the most trustworthy company in 2025, building corporate culture, staff collaboration, and pride is very important. An application for Hanwha Life members (including staff and financial consultants) is being developed. The application will help staff understand more about Hanwha, with practical and funny functions.
