Overview of the Release

The "Card Payment Option" is a feature that allows flexible setting of credit card payment availability for each invoice issued. Companies can start issuing "card-payable invoices" as quickly as the same day, without incurring system development costs.

Key Features

① Flexible Payment Settings per Recipient and Document

The availability of 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 claims payable by card.

② Instant Payment by Business Partners

Recipients of invoices can complete card payments instantly through on-screen operations. This eliminates the hassle of bank transfers and prevents payment delays.

③ Real-time Management of Payment Information

Payment statuses can be checked in real-time from the management screen. This aids in early determination of whether dunning is necessary.

Benefits of Implementation

Invoice Issuer (Implementing Company)

By lowering payment hurdles, it suppresses the occurrence of stagnant receivables and reduces the risk of uncollected debts. It also significantly reduces the man-hours required for payment confirmation and dunning operations, contributing to the efficiency of back-office operations.

Payer (Business Partner)

Card payments allow for an effective extension of the payment due date (until the card company's withdrawal date), contributing to improved cash flow.

Customers currently using "Bakuraku Invoice Issuance" can apply for this feature by simply entering the necessary information on the management screen, and the review will be completed as quickly as the same day, allowing immediate use of the feature.

*Please note that depending on the review results, 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, companies with a large volume of small claims, in particular, faced two major challenges with traditional bank transfer operations: first, a significant amount of man-hours required for payment reminders when payments were not received, and second, the business risk of uncollected debts.

As solutions to these challenges, the introduction of credit card payments and consideration of factoring can be mentioned. However, building an in-house payment system requires substantial development man-hours, and uniformly introducing it to all business partners could lead to cost disadvantages such as unnecessary processing fees.

To resolve these "concerns about collection risk" and "cost barriers" and to allow 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 arising from Japanese business practices.
