How SAP BRIM ensures frictionless billing & payment for insurance companies?

Insurance industries handle billions of Dollars of transactions every day. The operational challenges associated with building new capabilities make it difficult for insurers to ideate, plan, deliver, and manage seamless billing solutions. They have outgrown their traditional business models in terms of increased workload, but they still struggle with industry fragmentation, complex payment terms, and extensive manual processing.

Now the solution lies in shifting to a more consumer-centric insurance model. SAP BRIM is making inroads into the insurance sectors as it provides policyholders with more control and flexibility.

It helps insurers shape their business strategy infused with an end-to-end subscription management solution.

Two Trends: Usage-Based Insurance & Bundled Services

SAP BRIM harnesses a breakthrough billing mechanism to facilitate usage-based insurance. In automotive industries, for example, rather than paying thousands of Dollars as a monthly premium, insurance companies can charge the premium based on the distance driven by the vehicle. SAP BRIM can navigate through this complicated billing landscape as it empowers the insurers to charge based on the kilometers or miles the customers drive.  

This level of flexible billing increases customer loyalty and enables companies to position themselves in line with customers’ expectations and needs. Insurance businesses can promptly realize higher customer retention and create repeatable products and services, fueled by innovation. 

SAP BRIM makes it easier for insurers to adapt the cost of insurance, including discounts in premiums, based on customers’ driving behavior. You can leverage Telematics to monitor automobile speed and overall driving safety to decide on discounting or surcharging the premium.
