What 23 Arbolus experts think of ClearBank Limited

NPS scores are largely positive, with a predominant cluster in the 7-9 range and one outlier with a lower rating. Renewal intent is generally high, especially among Influencer roles with established usage and significant spend. Implementation stages are mature, with a majority in use for more than 1 year, a minority in pilot or onboarding, and few entering offboarding. Expert feedback highlights trust in regulatory standing, rapid integration, and positive support, although implementation friction (such as setup complexity or portal usability) is noted. Notably, high spenders and long-term customers show the strongest sentiment.Overall Customer Sentiment: Positive
