Swikly is a new platform providing caution management for all rental businesses (from a few hours to several months), providing :
- Simplification for the caution process for its B2B partners
- Automation and data safety via their platform
- End users benefit from a higher credit card cap
In order to improve their partner experience, Swikly is exposed to credit card default, and we have designed for them an insurance product to protect them against it.
Our "classic" API was ill suited for the connection between Swikly and our platform :
Together with our partner Swikly we pioneered a new approach :
We started with a blank page to design a new API
We used a modern data description language (GraphQL) to provide tooling
While implementing the new solution, we have supported with Swikly a double connection (legacy and new API) to avoid slowing the launch of the product.
We have since improved our solution to bring the same approach to every product launch, extending our compatibility to classic REST APIs and flat files to bring theses improvements to all of our partners.
Delay divided by 3 : 1 week instead of 3
We embraced our partner's operational model : some have better access to data snapshots, other to data streams... we can integrate these differences in the created custom data model
Our custom APIs are no longer a one-way data link : they have become a sharing space where we can push information back to our partners, in their desired format.
Unexpected value for Swikly : Beyond specific use to implement insurance solution, this approach enabled them to automate other business processes (non directly related to our business with them) e.g. Accounting process automation.
Seyna is a partner who stands out through its reactivity, its customer centricity, and its capacity to decipher market dynamics; a partner with whom the APRIL teams enjoy working.
Seyna and Lite were able to merge their analytical and insurance expertise, in order to guarantee that those who commit to better consumption will be rewarded for it.
No less than 20 000 prices were generated, giving us the highest level of product customisation on the market.
Compensation in unrivalled speed - thanks to an integration in Seyna's systems directly via API.
Being backed by a partner such as Seyna had been critical for the success of our program. We especially appreciated their ability to bring innovative pricing models and adapt to suit our needs.
