LayerX Inc. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director CEO: Yoshinori Fukushima; hereinafter "LayerX") today released the "Card Payment Option" feature for "Bakuraku Invoice Issuance."
This feature allows for the issuance of invoices that can be paid by credit card, supporting the efficiency of debt collection and preventing the risk of uncollected receivables.
Overview of the Release
The "Card Payment Option" is a feature that allows flexible setting of credit card payment availability for each invoice issued. Businesses can start issuing "card-payable invoices" as early as the same day without requiring system development man-hours.
Main Features
① Flexible payment settings per recipient and document
Credit card payment can be selected for each business partner or for each individual invoice. This allows for flexible operations, such as making only specific small-amount receivables payable by card.
② Instant payment by business partners
Business partners who receive an invoice can complete card payment instantly through on-screen operations. This eliminates the hassle of bank transfers and prevents payment delays.
③ Real-time management of payment information
Payment status can be checked in real-time from the management screen. This supports early judgment on the necessity of reminders.
Benefits of Introduction
For the billing party (introducing company)
By lowering the hurdle for payment, it suppresses the occurrence of outstanding receivables and reduces the risk of uncollected receivables. It also significantly reduces the man-hours required for payment confirmation and reminder operations, contributing to the efficiency of back-office operations.
For the paying party (business partner)
Card payment allows for an effective extension of the payment due date (until the card company's withdrawal date), contributing to improved cash flow.
This feature is available to existing "Bakuraku Invoice Issuance" customers. By simply entering the necessary information on the management screen, the review can be completed as early as the same day, and the feature can be used.
*Please note that depending on the results of the review, you may not be able to use the service.
Background of the Release
"Bakuraku Invoice Issuance" has supported the efficiency of back-office operations for many companies by automating document creation and sending tasks. Among these, especially for companies with a large number of small-amount receivables, traditional bank transfers presented two major challenges: one was the significant man-hours required for payment reminders when payments were not received, and the other was the business risk of uncollected receivables.
Introducing credit card payment or considering factoring were options to solve these issues. However, building an in-house payment system requires significant development man-hours, and uniformly introducing it to all business partners could lead to unnecessary processing fees and other cost disadvantages.
To resolve these "concerns about collection risk" and "cost barriers" and to allow for flexible selection of optimal payment methods for each business partner, this feature was developed. We aim to promote cashless transactions in B2B and resolve the inconveniences caused by Japanese business practices.
