Late payments cost UK SMEs an average of £22,000 a year. We've launched a managed payment collection service that handles the chasing, the reminders, and the direct debits, so you don't have to.
As your accountant, we already understand your cash flow better than anyone. Now we'll run the credit control too, built on a modern collections platform, branded as part of our service to you.
Xero or QuickBooks plugs straight in. Existing GoCardless mandates can migrate without your customers re-signing anything.
Personalised reminders go out from your business, not ours, not a third party. Direct debit, cards, Apple Pay, bank transfer. Your customers pay how they want.
Failed payments, disputes, instalment plans, late fees: we manage the moments that matter. You get a clean dashboard and a monthly report.
Drop in a few numbers from your aged debtors report. We'll show you how much we'd expect to recover, and what it would cost to have us run it.
All figures are estimates. Adjust to match your situation.
Estimates only. Actual recovery rates depend on debtor mix, invoice age, and dispute reasons. We'll do a proper assessment on a discovery call.
Whether you want us to set things up and step back, keep a watching brief, or run the whole function, there's a tier for that.
A managed service from your accountant works out cheaper, and considerably more effective, than the alternatives.
Your aged debtors, your margins, your cash flow patterns. We don't need to learn them; we built them.
Reminders, chases, statements, all in your name. Your customers don't see a third-party agency. They see you.
It's our niche. We understand retentions, CIS, milestone billing, and how trade customers actually pay.
Already on GoCardless? Mandates move across without your customers re-signing. Collections continue uninterrupted.
See what's been collected, what's overdue, and how your payment performance compares to similar businesses. No more guesswork.
For the first 12 months on the platform, passed straight through to you. Not a kickback. A discount.
Credit control as a service means your accountant runs the whole process of getting your invoices paid: sending automated payment reminders in your name, collecting by direct debit and card, chasing overdue accounts, handling failed payments and disputes, and reporting on what has been collected. Instead of doing it in-house, you hand the function to a team that already knows your numbers.
It depends on how much you want handled. Our service starts from a £50 one-off setup, £75 a month for light oversight, or from £350 a month for full management where we run the entire function. That typically works out cheaper than a standalone credit control firm, and far cheaper than a debt collection agency taking a percentage of everything recovered.
We're setting up and managing a dedicated payment collection system on your behalf: automated chasing, direct debit collection, real-time visibility into what's paid and what isn't, and active management when things need attention. The result: you get paid faster, with less time spent chasing.
You decide. Communications can go out under your branding, ours, or a third party's, whichever works best for your customers. Most clients prefer the chasing to feel like it's coming from their own business, and we set it up that way by default.
No. Existing direct debit mandates can be migrated to the new platform without your customers re-signing anything. Collections continue without interruption, and we manage the paperwork.
We monitor for failed payments and act on them. Depending on the reason, the system retries automatically or flags it for follow-up. You won't need to chase these yourself; we keep you informed of anything that needs a decision from you.
Xero and QuickBooks directly, so invoices sync and payments reconcile in real time. If you use trade software like Tradify, ServiceM8, Fergus, HaloPSA or others that flow into Xero/QuickBooks, you're already set. Standalone invoices in PDF, Word, JPEG or CSV can also be uploaded.
You'll have access to a real-time dashboard showing exactly what's been collected, what's overdue, and how your payment performance is trending, including a benchmark against similar businesses. We'll also review it with you regularly so you always know where things stand.
No. We offer it to new clients too, and it's often a strong reason for businesses to come to us in the first place. If you know a trade or renewables business struggling with late payment, we're happy to have a chat.
Book a 20-minute call. We'll look at your aged debtors together and tell you, honestly, whether this is worth your time.
