AI collection calls that get a promise-to-pay date, politely
Call every overdue account in the borrower's language, capture a promised date and reason, and pass hard cases to your collections team.
What is an AI debt collection call?
An AI debt collection call is an automated, polite phone call to a customer with an overdue amount. It states the dues, asks why payment is late, records a promise-to-pay date and amount, and transfers disputes or hardship cases to a person. Repayment details follow on WhatsApp or SMS right after the call.

Why is this hard to do by hand?
How does an AI debt collection and promise-to-pay call work?
- Share overdue accountsUpload a sheet with customer name, number, overdue amount and days past due, or push accounts from your loan or billing system to the MsgClub API.
- Set the script and limitsStart from the collections template. Add what the AI may say about charges, part-payment and who it should transfer to.
- AI calls at volumeThe agent calls thousands of accounts at once, states the dues politely, asks for the reason and records a promise-to-pay date and amount.
- Transfer when a person is neededDisputes, settlement requests and hardship cases are transferred to your collections team, or logged for a callback.
- Follow up on promisesRepayment details go out on WhatsApp or SMS after the call. Promised dates reach your system by webhook so you can call again if the date passes.
When does the AI call?
Run one campaign for each step: upload that day's list, or let your billing software send it by API.
- 1 to 7 days overdueA soft reminder that the payment was missed, often an honest delay. The AI shares the amount, captures a promise-to-pay date and the payment link follows after the call.
- 15 to 30 days overdueA firmer call that asks for the reason, records a promised date and amount, and offers a transfer to your team for part-payment requests.
- Broken promise follow-upWhen a promised date passes without payment, your system triggers another call. The AI refers to the earlier promise and asks for a new, firm date.
- Dispute or wrong numberIf the customer disputes the amount or is not the right person, the AI does not share account details, logs the case and transfers or closes politely.
What do you get after every call?
Each result appears in your dashboard and is sent to your system by webhook.

Debt collection and promise-to-pay: common questions
Is AI debt collection allowed in India?
Yes, for lenders and businesses calling their own customers about their own dues. You stay responsible for consent, DND and RBI recovery rules: calls only between 8 am and 7 pm, no intimidation and, from 1 January 2027, recorded calls with the borrower told about the recording.
Will the AI use threatening language?
No. The collections template is polite and factual. It states the dues, asks for a reason and records a date. You approve the script, and every call has a recording and transcript you can review.
Can the AI agree to a settlement or waiver?
No. The AI does not negotiate settlements or waive charges. It records the request and transfers the call to your collections team, or logs a callback, so a person makes that decision.
How are promise-to-pay dates used?
Each promised date and amount appears in the dashboard and is sent to your system by webhook. Your system can then start another call through the API if the date passes without payment.
What if someone else answers the phone?
The AI first confirms it is speaking with the right person. If not, it does not mention the amount or loan, asks for a good time to call back and logs the outcome.
Which languages can collection calls use?
Any of the 12 confirmed languages: Hindi, English, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Gujarati, Punjabi, Bengali, Odia and Assamese, plus Hinglish. You choose the language for each campaign.
