If waiting for customer payments to roll in is causing a cash flow issue, in-store financing could be a solution, By working with a third-party financing company, your small business can also set up a program where customers buy now and pay later. With this arrangement, you could increase sales, boost customer retention, and even improve your cash flow. 

  

How Can I Offer Financing to My Customers? 

When you are about to make a finance offer to your customers, you might imagine that your business would extend the credit directly. In simple terms, you would give customers the product or service with the promise that they’ll pay you back later. 

While you could set up this arrangement, it’s more complicated and won’t fix your cash flow issues since you’re waiting on customers to pay their bills. There are much easier alternatives. It’s more common for small businesses to work with third-party financing companies like ViaBill, Afterpay or Snap Finance. These companies offer a point of sale financing, where your customer borrows from them to make the purchase and your business gets paid right away. You enjoy making sales on credit without taking on the financial risk. 

  

How Do I Make a Sale? 

When your business signs up with one of these financing companies, they’ll give you an online and/or mobile program to process sales. As customers make a purchase, they can apply for delayed payments through the system. The financing company will review their credit score and decide on the spot. 

If customers qualify, the financing company will pay your business in full for their purchases. They will then be in charge of setting up payment plans for customers and collecting money. 

You will pay a small fee for the service. It could be a monthly charge or a percent of every sale, like for processing credit cards. Your customers could also owe interest on their installment payments. 

  

How does your Business Benefit?

1. Increase your customer satisfaction

Regardless of whether it is the classic payment term, part payment pausing - your customers can adapt payments to their financial situation. Your customers also have the possibility of marking their returns so they do not receive unnecessary payment reminders, but only pay for what they want to keep. Our optimized returns management is your key to higher customer retention, which will also drive your sales.
