Call Center Account Opening and Funding
OpenNow®/FundNow® (ONFN) Call Center is an account opening and funding solution designed to bring the benefits of automated identity verification and electronic funding to the call center to cost-effectively increase new account acquisition and facilitate greater flexibility and enhanced automation in the call center.

ONFN Call Center also enables financial institutions to realize the benefits of integrating the online and call center acquisition channels by providing the opportunity for prospective customers to complete the entire application process on the phone with the call center, or to use the call center to complete an application that was started and abandoned online.
