Bad debt protection

What is bad debt protection?

Bad debt protection is a product that can be added to your invoice discounting facility that ensures that you still receive payment in the event that your customer can’t settle their invoices.

We offer up to 100% protection on customers who have been pre-approved by our credit team, which means that you have peace of mind that customer insolvency won’t negatively impact your cash flow.

Full terms and conditions of our 3-month promotion are available here.

It has become a vital part of our invoice finance facility – you never know what can happen and this protection gives us peace of mind that the business can progress even when faced with customer insolvencies.

How does bad debt protection work?

Should a customer insolvency arise, we will handle the entire procedure on your behalf. We will liaise with the insolvency practitioner and, once we are in receipt of all necessary supporting documentation, the process will be resolved within as little as two weeks.

We have an expert Credit Management Team that will work with you to assess any potential risks from your existing or new customers, carrying out credit checks and providing advice on request, minimising your exposure to bad debts.
