Streamline payments and strengthen financial health

Suppliers often face difficulties like financial instability, high financing costs, and delayed cash flow. Handling discount requests manually can also be time-consuming and prone to errors.

B2BE’s Dynamic Discounting solution allows suppliers to streamline the process, automate negotiations, and improve financial health while fostering stronger customer relationships. This solution reduces reliance on expensive financing options, improves working capital, and enhances operational efficiency, all while maintaining smoother interactions with buyers.

Dynamic Discounting enables buyers and suppliers to collaborate on early payment discounts. This makes communication efficient and seamless.

Supplier challenges solved with Dynamic Discounting

Financial Instability

When a company faces financial instability, it struggles to meet its business goals and maintain long-term success.

Limited Access to Affordable Financing

Relying on high-interest loans increases financial pressure and makes operations more costly.

Delayed Cash Flow

Long Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) ties up cash, leaving less available for daily operations and investments.

Buyer Discount Requests

Handling frequent discount requests from buyers without proper tools can strain relationships and reduce efficiency.

Manual Processes

Manual handling of discounts and payments leads to errors and slows down operations, increasing costs.

Key features of B2BE's Dynamic Discounting solution for suppliers

Supplier-Initiated Discount Offers

Suppliers can proactively identify eligible buyers and initiate discount offers on outstanding invoices. This allows suppliers to take control of the discounting process, providing flexibility in when and how they offer discounts, ensuring mutually beneficial terms.

Automated Negotiation Tools

The Dynamic Discounting solution simplifies negotiations by allowing both buyers and suppliers to send and receive counter-offers automatically. This speeds up the negotiation process, removing the need for long back-and-forth communications and ensuring faster agreement on discount terms.

Integrated Invoice Updates

Once terms are finalised, the system automatically updates the invoice data and sends it back to both parties. This ensures all stakeholders have access to the latest information, helping avoid discrepancies and ensuring that the correct discounts are applied.

Seamless Payment Execution

Buyers can seamlessly instruct their banks to process payments based on the newly negotiated dates and terms. This reduces the risk of late payments or errors, ensuring suppliers receive their discounted payments on time while buyers maintain good financial management.

Real-Time Synchronization with Backend Systems

The solution integrates directly with backend systems to sync the updated payment terms and discount details, eliminating the need for manual data entry. This ensures accuracy, reduces administrative workload, and allows for smooth financial operations for both suppliers and buyers.

What you can achieve as a supplier with B2BE's Dynamic Discounting solution

Improvement on Financial Health

By syncing discounting strategies with your business goals, you can better manage financial health. Early payments at discounted rates help secure cash flow and reduce outstanding invoices, leading to more predictable financial planning and stronger overall financial performance.

Lowering Overall Finance Costs

Dynamic Discounting enables you to access early payments from buyers, reducing reliance on expensive financing options such as high-interest loans or credit. This can lead to significant savings, as the discounts applied are often less costly than traditional borrowing methods.

Improvement in Working Capital and Cash Flow

This solution helps improve working capital by ensuring that cash flow remains steady through early payments. Suppliers can unlock tied-up capital faster, which can be reinvested in operations, growth, or other business activities, leading to healthier business liquidity.

Stronger Customer Relationships

Offering flexible discounts and smoother payment terms can strengthen long-term relationships with your buyers. Satisfied customers are more likely to engage in repeat business, which could lead to increased sales and better collaboration in the future.

Reduced Manual Effort and Errors

Automation reduces the need for manual processes like calculations, negotiations, and approvals. This leads to fewer administrative errors, faster execution, and more streamlined operations, allowing your team to focus on higher-value tasks, increasing both efficiency and accuracy.
