Is the issue of pending dues affecting your business growth? Customer payments are vital to support your business, and delays can impact cash flow and business operations. While you can send invoices to your customers, there is no guarantee that they will pay by your deadline. Many organisations often face an inordinate delay in business payments from their customers.

Automation of payment collection

There is much talk about automating business processes. But what does automation mean? Automation is the practice of taking everyday activities, deducting the labour-intensive administrative part of them, and transferring that task to technology.

Businesses can improve their customer dues collection by choosing to automate this process and outsource this to a technology platform. By outsourcing their collections, companies can use the time and resources saved for business growth.

Recordent is a technology platform that offers a structured approach to payment collection automation. Started by global technology entrepreneurs, Recordent is solving one of the most painful problems for businesses: collection of dues from customers - late, long overdue and defaults. This online technology portal helps businesses submit customer dues, recover payments faster, and reduce risk before offering service, credit, or loan by checking customers' payment history.

How does it work?

Businesses can sign-up as members on Recordent and submit their customers’ dues on a secure platform through a simple online form or bulk upload in EXCEL or CSV format. Recordent’s engagement platform notifies reported customers on their dues' status and educates them on how other businesses can check their payment history. Recordent members can also offer installment options to collect dues faster. Customers can pay their dues digitally through Recordent and also avail loans through Recordent to clear the dues.

From the customer dues added by a rapidly growing Recordent member and partner network, businesses can check a new and prospective customer's payment history upon prior consent. Thus, helping members manage risk and make informed decisions while offering a service, credit, or a loan. Having the highest regard for privacy and data security, Recordent’s goal is to enable trust and accountability for businesses that offer a service, credit, or a loan directly to their customers.
