NRG is the parent company for many energy brands including Reliant Energy, Green Mountain Energy, Cirro Energy and Penny Wise. NRG needed to make it easier and quicker for new customers to complete the enrollment process on affiliate websites. In the very competitive energy market, they knew success would require a smart use of custom technology, but they did not have the technical resources in-house to solve this challenge.
As NRG’s business partner since 2010, iProspect has invested the time to get to know their business inside and out. iProspect applied deep business rules (such as industry regulations, legal requirements, enrollment best practices) to the API solution.
Previously, NRG had to review batch files by hand. These files contained detailed information for the enrollee such as their social security number, address and calculated monthly fee based on credit score. With iProspect’s new solution, when a potential customer submits an application on an affiliate website, the API can approve the application based on the business logic in near-real time. In addition, new customers are kept on the affiliate page during the whole enrollment process, creating a better user experience.
Having a technical resource in iProspect, NRG also asked iProspect to manage their affiliate relationships to get the most out of the program.
