This solution accelerates the entry speed of confidential consumer data while securing the information capture process On May 5, 2015 the Government of United States of America, through its U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, issued Teleperformance a U.S. patent for "securely and efficiently processing telephone orders" through ESP™.
For over 50 years, orders received by phone around the world were
entered in the same way. In today's world, companies and consumers need to fully secure their confidential data. The new Teleperformance ESP™ system allows consumers to complete orders by telephone and provide their confidential information including payment card numbers without the risk of exposure.
ESP™ also allows information to be entered more quickly and thus generates a faster, more secure and better customer experience while reducing costs for companies adopting this technology. With ESP™, a consumer does not need to give their address or credit card number to an operator when ordering a product or requesting service. All sensitive information is transmitted through a system of secure tokens in the background using biometric information provided by the consumer. With ESP™, Teleperformance has created a new contact center information security and customer service efficiency benchmark protected by a U.S. patent recognizing this innovation.
