14. THE CHALLENGES
• Rapido needed a solution to
optimize the delivery cycle
through timely and contextual
communication between all
stakeholders without
compromising on privacy at
any touchpoint.
• Airtel IQ provided anonymization of the contact
number of customers and riders by offering a pool
of virtual numbers (VN) to Rapido.
• The rider-customer mapping is done within Airtel
IQ ecosystem, and both stakeholders are able to
communicate through the VN
• After the transaction is completed, the VN is
released back to the pool and is randomly used
for another transaction.
Improved delivery
process efficiency due
to 99.9% network
uptime
Better experience to all
stakeholders due to
wider network reach and
stronger connectivity
Ensure 100%
privacy on every
transaction

15. THE CHALLENGES
• Swiggy’s existing CPaaS SLA
covered only the cloud aspect
of the deal and not the
downtime or glitches
emerging from the telecom
network.
• Besides, they charged
Swiggy twice for each call
between the customer, agent
as their system triggered two
separate calls to connect the
two stakeholders.
• Airtel IQ helped Swiggy provide the experience of a
regular call without compromising their privacy.
• When a delivery agent clicks the ‘call customer’
button on the Swiggy app, it initiates a call to the
displayed virtual number, call lands on Airtel IQ
platform and it communicates the delivery agents
details to Swiggy’s server to receive the respective
customer’s number.
• On receiving the number, Airtel IQ initiates a call to
the provided number which serves as the bridge
between the agent and the customer.
Communication
expenditure
decreased by 50%
Swiggy experiences industry
leading network and CCP
uptime resulting in near-zero
call disruptions.
Intuitive dashboard provides
real-time insights to facilitate
continuous customer
experience enhancement
