SurgePays, Inc. (NASDAQ: SURG) ("SurgePays" or the "Company"), a wireless and fintech point of sale company connecting subprime and underserved consumers to essential mobile and financial services, today announced it is advancing a real time AI decisioning platform built on ProgramBenefits.com and its nationwide retail network, which together capture verified consumer data and engagement at scale. The system is designed to expand each customer interaction into a multi-product revenue opportunity while increasing engagement across wireless, financial services, and other essential offerings.
The system evaluates eligibility, predicts conversion probability, and ranks opportunities in real time to determine the next best action for each user. Instead of returning a single product outcome, it expands each interaction into multiple qualified opportunities across wireless, financial services, healthcare savings, and other essential services within a single session.
Brian Cox, Chief Executive Officer of SurgePays, said, "Today, our consumer intake platform, ProgramBenefits.com, functions as an eligibility funnel. Our objective is to turn that into a real time monetization engine. When a user submits their information, that is the moment of highest intent, and we believe it should be expanded into multiple opportunities, not just one. Each consumer is evaluated across multiple verticals, with opportunities ranked based on conversion probability and revenue potential, and presented in real time."
"By integrating the data and behaviors of the subprime market into our proprietary CRM, we are developing an actionable system that improves as it learns. This allows us to evaluate and introduce new products and services with greater precision, based on predicted outcomes across our customer base."
"This is a system that we expect will materially increase revenue per user and change the economics of the business. This approach improves capital efficiency and supports a more scalable growth model. Over time, it will learn from every interaction, enabling us to improve conversion rates and expand revenue across our platform."
The system will capture user behavior and outcomes to continuously improve decisioning accuracy over time. This supports the development of a proprietary dataset, optimized conversion models, and an expected increase in revenue per user as the system scales.
Initial development is focused on integrating the decisioning engine into the Company's existing CRM and POS infrastructure, including ProgramBenefits.com and its in-store distribution channels. Phase one prioritizes expanding the product set by integrating additional financial and service-based offerings into existing wireless and benefits channels.
