What is a Self-Service Portal?

A self-service portal is a website or app that consists of self-help and self-service functions. This enables and empowers the customer to perform transactions, access their needed information, request services, or resolve issues quickly and conveniently without the help of a customer service agent.

Self-service web portals are easily accessible, user-friendly, and accessible via desktop or mobile devices. Self-service portals help companies save on money, time, and effort of customer service representatives.
