How a Caribbean Financial Group Lifted NPS by 11 Points and Cut Branch Wait Times

A leading Caribbean financial group deployed Frontlion's in-person service platform across branches in three countries, replacing manual wait measurement with real-time visibility. Net Promoter Score rose 11 points, wait times fell by up to 23%, and a survey-and-follow-up loop turned at-risk clients into retained ones.

What Leaders Say

Oh my god. It was like watching a black and white movie and then watching a color television. A client was getting immediate, real-time information as to how long they were going to wait. That level of empowerment was just mind-blowing from where we were coming from.

Who They Are

Customer Snapshot

A leading Caribbean financial group operating across three countries, providing investment, lending, and member services through a multi-country branch network. The group holds itself to an internal service standard of 15 minutes or less of client wait time — a benchmark its brand is built on.

Countries 3
Service Standard 15 min or less wait
Network Multi-country branches

The Problem

The Challenge

The group is known for exceptional service, but wait time was tracked manually on spreadsheets and reported only at the end of the month or quarter — far too late to act on. Clients had no way of knowing where they stood in line, and leadership had no real-time view of service across the network. For an organization whose reputation rested on service, lagging quarterly data was close to useless.

  • Wait time tracked manually on spreadsheets — quarterly reporting, not real-time
  • No client-visible place-in-line or projected wait
  • Lagging data made it impossible to recover individual service failures
  • No centralized visibility across countries and branches

The Decision

Why Frontlion?

The group evaluated several providers and selected Frontlion for four reasons it has since named explicitly: responsive remote support, a depth of reports and dashboards they had never had, ease of deployment (described as plug-and-play), and centralized visibility across all branches and countries.

Responsive Support

Remote access to resolve issues without routing every request through internal IT.

Reporting Depth

A depth of dashboards the group had never seen in a demonstration.

Ease of Deployment

Described as plug-and-play — kiosks arrived and were live the same day.

Cross-Branch Visibility

Centralized branch-by-branch visibility across three countries from a single view.

How It Works

The Solution

Frontlion deployed its in-person service platform across the group’s branches in all three countries, replacing manual measurement with real-time client flow and centralized visibility. Clients check in by kiosk in English or Spanish and receive a text link to view their place in line while they wait wherever they choose.

Impact

Operational Challenges Solved & Results

The central operational change is the move from lagging, manual measurement to real-time, network-wide visibility — and then to action built on it. NPS rose 11 points, customer satisfaction and engagement rose 8 points, and wait times fell by up to 23%, moving most branches below the 15-minute service standard.
