9Spokes advised that it has signed a two-year contract renewal with Bank of New Zealand, with a further two-year right of renewal. The contract renewal will see the Company continue to provide MyBusiness Live, BNZ's white- label 9Spokes platform, which helps small and medium-sized businesses track performance through data-derived insights. It also incorporates 9Spokes Engage, 9Spokes' in-life marketing program and Content Hub, plus Connect, 9Spokes' revenue-generating app marketplace. The extended two-year term enables the Company to continue to evolve its platform with the benefit of close collaboration with BNZ. Its scope extends to the development of new digital services, including Monitor for bankers, a Microsoft Teams supported app created by 9Spokes, which gives bankers a quick overview of a business' information, including business entity data from the Companies Office. The renewal of the contract follows a successful first term. BNZ has made MyBusiness Live a core feature of its digital strategy, serving to drive deeper engagement with customers, reduce portfolio risk, and improve cost-to-serve for the bank through more holistic customer relationships. Recently, the bank introduced auto-provisioning, whereby customers are automatically signed up to the platform as part of their banking experience. The platform is available to all small businesses across New Zealand, including non-bank customers.
