Understanding financial transactions – how does Transactional Intelligence work?

The more you know about your customers and their financial health, the better business decisions you can make. Any information about your customers’ spending habits and transactions allows you to understand and predict their behavior and, in consequence, drive more revenue. 

However, to make the proper use of information, you need to make sure that the data is complete, reliable, and up-to-date. This is where Planky’s Transactional Intelligence comes in – let’s introduce an easy-to-follow tool that has already helped dozens of businesses in making accurate data-based business decisions.

What is data enrichment and why is it important?

The volume of data that needs to be processed and used is very often challenging for most brands. From the infrastructure to budget, companies tend to struggle with storing, managing, and making sense of their data assets. Enriching data means unraveling meaningful patterns, identifying hidden trends, as well as better understanding both customers and competitors. Simply speaking, data enrichment means taking raw data points and merging them with similar data points in a larger database.

Data enrichment is enhancing the value of data with already existing information. The process uses various sources to add more information and improve the value of data by providing more insights. It is one of the key ways to optimize business efforts and improve sales. Of course, there are many enrichments that can be applied to data – from making sure that date formats from various data are standardized, to the implementation of language translations and building new dimensions from the data.

Why is data enrichment so important?

Data enrichment helps businesses know more about their users without asking them for extra information. You can easily verify someone’s identity and reduce risk without increasing user friction. From a business perspective, data enrichment is especially helpful while moving to a new market, trying to keep up with trends, starting a new business, as well as reducing fraud rates.
