Early payment helps everyone
When it comes to business, cash is king
Each side of the equation, accounts payable or accounts receivable, this statement rings true
- Suppliers want their cash sooner to invest back into their business.
- Corporates with cash want to make the most of their working capital and improve supplier relationships.
That’s where Earlytrade comes in.
The Earlytrade platform lets Corporates and Suppliers collaborate transparently to negotiate invoice terms in return for early payment. By leveraging the cost of credit along the supply chain, suppliers can control when they get paid.
