Collections, PDC & Late-Payment Penalties

Post-dated cheque management, multi-instrument receipts, collection follow-up and automated late-payment penalties.

What organisations struggle with

In markets where post-dated cheques and instalment payments are common, finance teams need to track cheques, mixed payment methods and overdue amounts that standard payments do not cover.

The solution
