Litigation is expensive and you can be waiting a long time for a court ruling. We always try to settle the issue out of court first, and only consider court proceedings if that fails. Not only does this save money, but you usually get paid faster and can retain good relations with customers.
Our priority is getting your cash fast while maintaining good relations with your customers. We always apply individual approach to each customer, taking into account their financial circumstances. Over the years, we have refined our process by applying the following key instruments:
- Written reminder - we first inform your clients of the due amount in writing by post letter or email
- Telephone reminder - we connect with your customers by phone or send them text message
- Legal actions - if, after multiple calls and reminders, your customer still does not pay, we will analyze the factual situation and will recommend the possible legal actions. Our extensive experience and knowledge enables us to advise you on whether legal action has a good chance of success.
Debt collection agencies are usually more successful because collection is their core activity. We have specialised know-how, human resources and technology.
In contrast, most small and medium-sized enterprises put accountants or sales agents in charge of debt collection. This extra task adds to the employee’s workload and is low down on their list of priorities. The results can be a low level of collection and/or worse performance in the company's core business. We therefore strongly recommend using a dedicated collection agency. Let your employees concentrate on your core business. And what’s more: you’ll unlock more liquidity by minimising non-payment.

That depends on your wishes and needs. Our professionally-designed processes ensure we work hand in hand with the internal credit and collection department. Your departments can focus resources and energy on evaluation and selecting customers, and on the early stages of the collection process.
In many cases, using an external collection agency has a positive effect on your image. Investors, suppliers and customers will know that you are serious about your business projects and keep loyal business relationships.

Each service we offer is tailored to the client, so we cannot provide a list of prices. In general, the cost of the services is based on a percentage of the amount actually collected. The level of commission depends mainly on the age of the remaining arrears. The older your debt, the higher the commission (experience has shown that it is more difficult to collect older debts). Please get in touch and we will be happy to prepare an individual proposal.

Later on, we may need more documents, depending on the individual case and the development of our communication with the defaulting customer.
