AI prompt to remind clients about missed payments

Keeping a client is usually easier than finding a new one, and renewal is when clients shop around. AI helps agents reach out before renewal, explain changes clearly and spot clients who may be about to leave.

Below is a ready-to-copy prompt to remind clients about missed payments, a detailed version that asks you clarifying questions first, and 1 specialized AI tool (Ushur) with instructions for this task. It also works in ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Copilot.

The prompt

Write a friendly past-due payment reminder text and email: note the payment is due, the date coverage could be affected per carrier notice, and how to pay or call. Placeholders, no threats.

Detailed version (asks clarifying questions first)

Act as an experienced assistant to a licensed insurance agent. Before answering, ask me up to 3 clarifying questions (the line of business, your relationship with the client, and tone). Then complete this task, and finish with a short checklist of statements I should verify with my compliance team.

Task: Write a friendly past-due payment reminder text and email: note the payment is due, the date coverage could be affected per carrier notice, and how to pay or call. Placeholders, no threats.

What a good result looks like

A good reminder is friendly and factual: the payment is due, the date the insurer's notice says coverage could be affected, and two easy ways to pay or call. It assumes the client simply forgot.

Common mistakes and watch-outs

Use the date from the insurer's actual notice, not a guess, and don't threaten. Follow consent rules for texting, and don't include policy numbers or amounts in a text if your agency avoids sensitive data in texts. Tools like Ushur can automate reminders but need accurate data.

How to adapt the prompt

Write a softer first reminder and a firmer second one closer to the notice date. Grammarly can help keep both polite.

EXAMPLE output (placeholder data, not a real client)

Text:
"Hi [First Name], this is [Agency Name]. Friendly reminder: your [Policy Type] payment is past due. Per the insurer's notice, coverage could be affected after [Date]. Pay here: [Payment Link] or call [Phone]."

Email:
Subject: Payment reminder for your [Policy Type] policy
"Hi [First Name], we noticed your payment hasn't been received yet. To keep your coverage in place, please pay by [Date] at [Payment Link] or call us at [Phone]. If you've already paid, thank you, please ignore this note."
