Reduce late payments

When you’re working with other businesses, you may not always know whether they’re going to pay you on-time. Leaving your business’ cash flow open to risks.

Do you know whether your customers have legal notices or a CCJ registered to their business? Are they financially stable? Do they have a good business credit score and history? 

When you run a company credit check, you’ll know all this information before you even start working together. 

Protect your whole supply chain

Other people’s poor credit poses risks to how you do business. Offering credit to a business with a poor credit score, may impact the likelihood that you’ll get paid on time, impacting operations up and down your chain.

If a company you work with has an unpaid CCJ, it’s likely that they owe money elsewhere. This could impact their ability to meet the terms you agreed. Imagine knowing that before sending your first invoice.
