AKUVO names new customers after exceptional quarter of growth, adding 17
MALVERN, PA (May 2, 2024) — AKUVO, a technology organization that specializes in collections and credit risk, signed 17 new financial institutions to the AKUVO Platform during the first quarter of 2024. They represent more than $25 billion in assets and serve nearly 2 million consumers.
Many financial institutions said they are converting to the AKUVO Platform to leverage the solution’s playbooks, which can automate processes and procedures, even those handled by third parties. AKUVO playbooks can also provide collectors with required and/or recommended next steps, in real time, based on borrower behavior.
Other customers said they chose AKUVO for the solution’s third-party connectivity and ability to process specialty functions like bankruptcy and repossessions. Many financial institutions indicated they will also implement AKUVO’s new Virtual Collector, which allows borrowers to digitally self-cure delinquent accounts. Some also signed up for AKUVO’s Managed Experience service, which allows customers to further leverage the organization’s staffing and resources.

- The $2B Alabama Credit Union, with 156,000 members and headquarters in Tuscaloosa, Ala.
