Challenge
Oney aims to help accelerate the realization of its clients and partners’ projects, not only through its professionals’ experience and know-how, but also through a unique human approach in the current financial market.
To redefine the omnichannel hiring experience and management of the products card and personal credit, Oney transformed and innovated its processes, making them digital, simple and adapted to the new expectations of the market. Therefore, enhancing and improving face-to-face and distanced contracting business processes.
Solution
To meet this challenge, Unipartner proposed the implementation of a solution supported by its digital contracting platform (UDX Contract), which integrates a set of Unipartner application modules designed for the banking business and that support the digital transformation of financial institutions.

Based on Microsoft technology, it also incorporates the latest and most innovative technologies on the market, regarding operating compatibility across multiple devices, such as mobile, hybrid and desktop devices. Thus, giving financial institutions the option to choose from different scenarios of mobility at the point of sale, whether supported on sign pad, full 100% credit products subscription in tablet, or even an advanced and hybrid mobile branch.
With this Unipartner solution, Oney started to take advantage of a platform that allows the company to manage and automatically generate proposals, with automatic notifications by SMS, email and letter. It allows for the management of contract documents and customer files, simplifying the document conference process and the contracts anomalies management. Additionally, it streamlines the management of work queues, control service levels and KPIs on the proposal submission process, card analysis/credit and the validation of contracts.

The support provided by Unipartner allowed this change to be achieved without major upsets."
