SUMMARY
The most persuasive credit card agent is one that can read your mind.
To win credit cardholders in an unforgiving market with a less competitive offering, Standard Chartered Bank created a new marketing system that used trending content to identify and convert unsuspecting audiences. This 'Algorithm Agent' used long-tails of interest data to personalise and serve branded content in real-time and at scale. It immediately reversed the market’s declining trend, achieved a record in card applications, and proved a more efficient and sustainable marketing approach unseen in the category.
