# Payment reminders: Payment reminders that end with a date and an amount.

The agent reminds customers about upcoming and overdue payments, asks why a payment is late, agrees a date and records the promise in your system. Its tone stays calm however many calls it makes.

Fits: Lenders, Utilities and telecom, Retail credit, Billing teams. In production with early customers.

## One call, start to finish

*An example reminder call*

> **Agent:** Good morning, this is Sara, an AI assistant from the lender, calling about your loan account. Before we go on, could you confirm your date of birth?
> **Caller:** Fourteenth of March, 1988.
> _↳ Verifies the customer in your system_
> **Agent:** Thank you, Ivan. Your payment of 120 euros was due on the 8th. Is everything all right?
> **Caller:** I got paid late this month. I can pay on Friday.
> **Agent:** Understood. So that’s 120 euros by Friday the 20th. Shall I note that?
> **Caller:** Yes, please.
> _↳ Records the promise to pay_
> **Agent:** Done. Thank you, Ivan, and have a good day.

What lands in your system after the call:

```json
{
  "outcome": "promise_to_pay",
  "amount": 120,
  "currency": "EUR",
  "date": "2026-11-20",
  "reason": "Late salary",
  "dispute": false
}
```

Disputes, hardship and anything outside your rules go to a person, with the conversation so far.

## How it works

1. **Hand over the account.** The agent receives the customer’s balance and due date before it says a word.
2. **Set the tone and the rules.** What may be offered, what may not, and when a person takes over. Rehearse it in simulation first.
3. **Call in waves.** Before the due date, on the day and after it, as campaigns through Incoplax telephony.
4. **Track promises.** Every promise to pay, with its date and amount, goes back to your system.

## What the agent handles

- **Verifies first.** Confirms identity through your system before discussing any amount.
- **Agrees a date and amount.** Reads them back, records them, and keeps to the options you allow, such as a split payment.
- **Listens.** Asks why the payment is late and records the reason: a late salary, a dispute, hardship.
- **Escalates.** Disputes, hardship and anything outside your rules go to a person.

## Good to know

- You set the tone and the allowed offers in the prompt and rehearse them in simulation before going live.
- Calling rules differ by market: you set the calling hours, and the greeting can announce the AI and the recording.
- The agent reads amounts and dates back to the customer before recording them.
