Converse lets you segment your data for optimised marketing campaigns and personalised customer journeys.
SegmentScience is an integral part of Converse. It allows communications and marketing specialists to segment their data for campaigns and personalised customer journeys. The segmented data can be used to feed into marketing solutions like the Salesforce Marketing Cloud and dashboards, and to run reports and provide customer service representatives quick insights into the value of a relationship.
For inbound processes like requests, cases, additional donations and payment reversals, SegmentScience can be used to create personalised customer journeys that are driven by a broad set of data insights.
Converse includes a payment interface, Converse Payment API, that allows you to process both one-time and recurring payments from almost any source.
The payment platform integrates easily within your website, as installation capabilities are built into the tool. Your web developer won’t need any knowledge of how payments are processed, as simply connecting with the Converse Payment API is enough to process all kinds of payment methods.
Because payments are processed through the Salesforce CRM platform, your marketing team and customer service representatives get real-time insights into the status of donations and the ROI of ongoing campaigns. The built-in Relation interface will add or update existing donor information based on the criteria you configure.
Converse supports SEPA direct debit payment processing for any bank, allowing you to continue your current banking relationships with the possibility to add additional partners for new payment methods. It supports both classic payment providers and the newer FinTech wallets, so you can capture donations from a wide variety of payment channels.
With Converse, you can drive one-time and recurring payments directly from the donor profile. Payment collection can be done straight from the app.
