Our challange:
Max Life wanted to improve digital engagement while lowering operational costs tied to call centers and emails. But most users were dropping off due to complicated app flows and long wait times. Many policyholders preferred a simpler channel for quick help, but traditional tools weren’t delivering fast, interactive service. We needed a high-conversion, low-friction interface to boost user retention and service adoption.
What are WhatsApp Flows, and how do they work ?

WhatsApp Flows allow brands to create structured, form-like experiences inside chat—using buttons, drop-downs, and input fields. Max Life used them to simplify interactions like policy updates, service requests, and reminders.

Why was WhatsApp chosen over traditional apps ?

WhatsApp is widely used, requires no installation, and delivers 2x higher response rates than email or SMS. Most customers already trust it, making it ideal for insurance servicing on the go.

What kind of services could users access with Flows ?

Users could check premium due dates, update contact details, schedule callbacks, view policy documents, and even initiate claims—all without leaving the chat window.

How were Flows different from regular chatbots ?

Unlike basic bots, WhatsApp Flows offered visual, guided steps—eliminating typing and confusion. It’s more like a mini app inside WhatsApp, built for fast, error-free completion of tasks.

Was customer data safe and compliant ?

Yes, Max Life ensured all data shared through WhatsApp was encrypted, compliant with IRDAI norms, and secured under privacy guidelines. Authentication checks were also built into the Flows.

How did Flows impact internal efficiency ?

The automation reduced service ticket load by over 30%, freeing agents to focus on critical cases. It also improved response speed and cut handling time across multiple service touchpoints.


Achievement:
By launching WhatsApp Flows, Max Life saw a 3.2x increase in customer engagement and a 27% rise in policy servicing completion rates. Response times dropped dramatically, and users reported higher satisfaction with instant, guided self-service. Lead capture forms via WhatsApp also delivered higher conversion compared to web, driving stronger ROI on campaigns. With Flows, Max Life didn’t just digitize—it humanized insurance interactions in the most trusted chat platform in India.
