Acima Leasing is a virtual lease-to-own (LTO) fintech business of Rent-A-Center Inc. that removes transaction barriers between underserved consumers and retailers. Their proprietary technology enables customers to shop through their mobile app, online, or in stores at thousands of retailers across the nation.
Acima believes that a compliant and positive customer experience across all marketing channels and retailers is critical for their success. One of Acima’s biggest challenges was not being able to monitor all channels that were being used to communicate with customers and retailers. Acima works with thousands of customers and retailers a day, and the issue of oversight in all places at once was important to solve.
They wanted to ensure that all forms of communication and representation of their company are accurate and consistent. It was also important to have a monitoring system that was easy to use and could quickly capture the millions of calls, emails, and other communications that Acima sends and receives monthly.

At Acima, we believe that a compliant and positive customer experience across all of our marketing channels and our retailers is critical to our success. We chose PerformLine because they offer one platform for regulatory and brand compliance that we can use across all of the channels where we engage with customers. That allows us to have comprehensive monitoring of our brand that’s scalable, easy, and efficient.
Using PerformLine has allowed Acima to expand its coverage in a scalable, efficient way. Previously, Acima was only able to monitor about 5% of their calls. Now with PerformLine, they can monitor 99% of their calls for agent performance measurement and compliance with regulatory and brand guidelines.
Acima has been able to refine its marketing communications, improve testing, and improve QA scores. Acima has also greatly expanded their review of retailer websites and social media channels with daily monitoring and scoring—a feat simply not possible prior to using PerformLine.
On the operations side, Acima’s quality assurance team can make much better use of their time by reviewing flagged calls, rather than randomly reviewing a percentage of calls to and from their agents. In return, this has allowed them to provide ongoing training with their agents more comprehensively and ensure more successful monitoring.
