Blue Rule

 

Every company would like to be more profitable. And as every business professional knows, maximizing profitability and competitiveness means reducing costs and finding sustainable competitive advantage. There is one activity — performed by every company, regardless of size or industry — where real opportunity exists to accomplish this: Payments.

You may be spending unnecessary time and money in the process of making payments to your suppliers and vendors, adding significant costs to your purchases.
High, hidden costs incurred in the collection and reconciliation of payments for the sale of products and services may be diluting your margins.
You may be forgoing a significant opportunity to build stronger, more advantageous relationships within your supply and demand chains.

What are the alternatives?
Each year in the United States, roughly nine billion paper checks, representing 84% of all business payments, are written to settle transactions between vendors and suppliers and their customers. But processing a paper check can cost $5-$10 or more, often incurred both by you and your vendor or customer in labor, materials and bank fees. And those are just the obvious costs. Significant opportunity costs created by the inherent inefficiencies of processing paper checks include vendor discounts not taken, exposure to fraud and less-than-optimal trade terms.

Perhaps most importantly, few of today’s existing payment methods can fully provide the sophisticated payment remittance data required to efficiently reconcile business-to-business payments, resulting in ongoing and unnecessary costs in systems, staff and bank fees.

PayMode provides the efficiency and cost-effectiveness today’s commerce demands…with the predictability and certainty that helps you be more competitive, increase profitability and enhance your company’s performance. That’s why PayMode is a better way to make and receive business-to-business payments today.
