SmartVx is a video engagement tool that will revolutionize how you interact with your customers. With SmartVx, you can unleash the potential of video to make meaningful connections, change consumer behavior, and compel them to act. This service can tell customers how much they owe and much more in the form of short, customized videos sent via text, email, or QR code. Each video is personalized for individual customers and available in multiple languages. In addition to billing, SmartVx videos can be used to on-board customers, encourage usage of online tools, and remind delinquent customers payment is due.
