How Do You Optimize MANTL’s Application Flow?

Turn your MANTL-powered account opening into a frictionless, funded-account engine. Reduce drop-off, tighten KYC/AML, and orchestrate marketing, digital, and branch teams around a single, measurable application journey.

Unlock Banking & Finance Growth Get your growth audit

To optimize MANTL’s application flow, you first treat it as a revenue-critical funnel, not just an onboarding form. That means: map every screen and integration, quantify drop-off by device and product, remove unnecessary fields, and tighten KYC/IDV, core, and funding handoffs. Then, you surround that flow with remarketing, abandonment rescue, branch and contact-center plays so more qualified applicants complete, pass decisioning, fund, and adopt digital banking fast.

What Changes When You Treat MANTL as a Revenue Funnel?

From “nice UX” to funded-account KPIs — Shift success from page views to application start rate, completion rate, approval %, funded accounts, and early-balance growth.
Form fields that earn their keep — Remove or defer non-essential questions, use progressive profiling, and rely on core/credit data wherever possible instead of asking the customer again.
Integrated KYC/AML, not tacked on — Orchestrate identity verification, sanctions checks, and fraud scoring so they feel like a single, fast step rather than three separate roadblocks.
Marketing + MANTL alignment — Ensure campaigns, offers, and landing pages deep-link into the right MANTL flows with UTMs, promo codes, and data capture aligned to downstream decisioning.
Abandonment rescue & remarketing — Use cart-like recovery logic: save progress, trigger email/SMS nudges, and hand warm applicants to branch or contact center when self-service stalls.
Branch & contact center plays — Give bankers visibility into in-progress applications, scripts for rescue calls, and next-best-product guidance once the account is funded.

A Proven Playbook to Optimize MANTL’s Application Flow

Use this sequence to increase completed applications, approvals, and funded accounts while keeping compliance, fraud, and operations tightly governed.

Discover → Diagnose → Redesign → Orchestrate → Rescue → Activate → Govern

  • Discover the current journey. Map every step of the MANTL flow for each product (DDA, savings, CDs, business, etc.). Capture time-on-step, error states, and integration calls (core, KYC/IDV, funding).
  • Diagnose friction and failure modes. Identify screens with the highest drop-off, slowest loads, and most errors. Segment by device, geography, and traffic source to understand where friction hits hardest.
  • Redesign fields, copy, and validation. Consolidate or remove fields that do not drive risk or compliance decisions, batch document requests, and rewrite helper copy and error messages in plain language.
  • Orchestrate KYC/IDV and core integrations. Ensure identity verification, funding, and account creation are sequenced for speed and clarity: fewer redirects, clearer progress indicators, and robust retries.
  • Build abandonment rescue plays. Save partial applications, then trigger email/SMS reminders, digital re-targeting, and banker follow-up tasks for high-value segments.
  • Activate and cross-sell intentionally. Post-approval, guide customers through funding, digital banking enrollment, card activation, alerts, and autopay. Introduce cross-sell offers only after first use.
  • Govern with a revenue council. Stand up a monthly review across marketing, digital, product, and risk that inspects conversion, approval, funded rate, time-to-funding, early balances, and fraud, then updates backlog and budget.

MANTL Application Optimization Matrix

Capability From (Ad Hoc) To (Optimized) Owner Primary KPI
Application Analytics Basic page views and sessions; no funnel Step-level funnel from click to funded, tied to product, campaign, and segment Digital/Analytics Start Rate, Completion Rate
Form & Field Design Long, static forms; redundant data entry Short, adaptive flows with progressive profiling and helper copy UX/Digital Step Drop-Off %, Time-to-Complete
KYC/IDV Orchestration Multiple disjoint verification steps Streamlined single experience with clear expectations and fallback paths Risk/Operations Approval %, Fraud Rate
Core & Funding Integration Frequent timeouts and unclear errors Resilient integrations with retries and user-friendly messages IT/Digital Funded Rate, Time-to-Funding
Abandonment Recovery No visibility into abandoned apps Saved progress, automated nudges, and banker follow-up tasks Marketing/Sales Ops Recovered Applications, Funded Accounts
Activation & Cross-Sell Generic welcome emails Sequenced onboarding and product adoption journeys aligned to goals Lifecycle Marketing Digital Adoption, Products per Household

Client Snapshot: From Application Starts to Funded Accounts

A regional bank using a modern account-opening platform reduced abandonment by 30%+ and lifted funded accounts by aligning marketing offers, MANTL flows, and branch rescue plays. After standardizing analytics and optimization rituals, they improved time-to-funding and early balance growth without loosening risk policy.

When you connect campaigns, offers, and MANTL flows to a governed revenue marketing framework, you turn account opening into a repeatable engine for funded accounts, primacy, and digital engagement.

Frequently Asked Questions About Optimizing MANTL’s Application Flow

Where do you start when optimizing a MANTL application flow?
Begin by building a baseline funnel from visit → click into MANTL → start → submit → approve → fund. Then analyze where customers drop and what errors or slow steps are causing friction. That tells you which product, device, or integration to fix first.
Which metrics matter most?
Core metrics include application start rate, completion rate, approval rate, funded rate, time-to-funding, digital enrollment, and products per household. For marketing, track cost per funded account and early balance growth by campaign and segment.
How do you reduce abandonment?
Focus on the steps with the highest drop-off. Simplify fields, streamline ID verification, add inline help, and make progress indicators clear. Then, enable save-and-resume, email/SMS reminders, and banker outreach for high-value applicants who stall.
How does MANTL optimization connect to marketing campaigns?
Campaigns should deep-link into the right MANTL flow with consistent offers, UTMs, and disclosures. You then connect funnel data back to CRM/MAP so you can optimize spend based on funded accounts and balances, not just clicks and starts.
What teams need to be involved?
You get the best results when marketing, digital, product, risk, operations, and branch/channel leaders share the same funnel view and meet regularly to prioritize fixes and experiments based on revenue impact and risk.
How long does it take to see results?
Many institutions see early wins—like faster time-to-complete or lower abandonment—within a few weeks of targeted changes. Full optimization, including integrations, playbooks, and governance, is typically a multi-quarter journey that compounds over time.
