According to recent government figures SMEs are the backbone of the British economy, their contributions to employment and total business turnover running at over 60% and almost 50% respectively.

But SMEs are disproportionately more likely to incur late payments and recent research from BACS shows the average SME spends £955 a month pursuing customers for late payments and overdue invoices. For many smaller companies the costs of recovering overdue payments can sour what is otherwise a profitable relationship.

But it doesn’t have to be this way. Company Bug have secured the services of Safe Collections, a leading credit control and debt collection company, to help our users collect business debts and recover unpaid invoices quickly and professionally.
