70.3% of debts were paid within 30 days of negative listing

An overdue invoice is money that should already be in your company’s cash flow. After calls, emails and repeated collection attempts, many of these amounts are eventually treated as almost lost.

But negative listing can create a new incentive for the debt to be settled.

70.3% paid within 30 days of negative listing

According to a Serasa Experian study carried out in Brazil, 70.3% of the consumer debts analysed were paid within 30 days of negative listing.

This result does not mean that negative listing guarantees payment. Nor is it a recovery rate for Check NicePayer. It does, however, show that the mechanism can play a relevant role in a credit recovery strategy.

How much does it cost to try to recover the money?

In Portugal, Check NicePayer enables companies to register defaults by business customers in the B2B Debtor List.

Registering a debtor costs just €5.

The default is recorded, the debtor is formally notified by CTT and email, and receives the information needed to settle the debt.

If you have overdue invoices that were never listed, whether recent or old, there is still an action you can take to try to recover those amounts, provided the debts meet the applicable requirements.
