Best use of technology
Chaser has focused on delivering users end-to-end receivables automation features, which have been released since August 2021.
With end-to-end AR technology, Chaser users now have access to all receivables functionalities in one place, can minimise late payments, and speed-up their processes - improving cash flow and efficiency.
The end-to-end technology developed allows credit teams to automate and optimise their entire credit management process in one central system.
With end-to-end technology, Chaser users can now credit check potential customers, monitor debtors, chase late invoices via email and SMS, and reconcile accounts, collect payments, and utilise debt collections, all in the same unique platform.
Results of end-to-end AR technology
With new end-to-end technology, users have achieved astonishing efficiency improvements. Such as Rossana, Credit Control Manager at LoveBrands who saves over 15 hours every week on her accounts receivables using Chaser's automated technology.
Payment Portal
The Payment Portal, a key development in providing end-to-end automation, launched in January, has already sped-up over £2million in payments.
Giving customers varied options within the Payment Portal (transfer, card payment, request payment-plan, dispute) has sped-up payments for users.
Credit checking
Businesses can reduce risk with Chaser’s credit checking solution. and ongoing monitoring and alters on customers business and financial situation. With up-to-date reports and alerts on customers, users can make more accurate assumptions about their customers’ payment behaviours and adapt their credit management accordingly.
SMS payment reminders
Released in February 2022, SMS payment reminders have been proven to achieve open rates averaging 98%, helping businesses reach customers on-the-go and get invoices paid faster. Using Chaser’s Payment Portal, SMS reminders can link recipients directly to make payments.
Chaser Collections
After user research it was established that credit teams are often hesitant to use collection agencies, due to aggressive techniques.
Chaser Collections was built to combat this using in-house, friendly collectors and ‘receivables CRM’ tracking technology that gives users full visibility over every interaction between their debt collector and customers, including call-logs and customer replies, automatically
HuttieGroup, users for just six-months, have recovered £15,600. Tom, their FD says:
“Of all invoices put through, 90%+ have received a response, and 80%+ have already been paid” . This doesn’t come at the expense of customer relationships: “We’ve never had a complaint, everything is out in the open and handled very nicely, the emails sent look like something we’d write ourselves”.
Since 2021 Chaser accelerated the expansion of technology for credit teams, giving businesses the flexibility to automate and improve any area of their receivables process through automation.
