Description

The possibility of not being paid, of only receiving partial payment or being paid late is an inconvenience all businesses are likely to experience at some point.

Bad payers can hurt your bottom line. So how do you ensure that your clients pay in full and on time? You can’t just trust them to do so. You have to put everything in place to effectively manage the risk.
