Largest Supplier on Leading E-Commerce Platform in India

Published on 06 Jul,2020

Deployed a ‘fixed rate’ early payment program for suppliers designed to auto-accelerate all invoices for immediate payment once approved by client; Offered in partnership with a leading MNC bank.

Case Overview:

  • CredAble’s Early Payment Program for Suppliers digitally enables post-invoice vendor financing. Our focus is to make it easy for large enterprises to facilitate on-demand working capital for their suppliers using our trade finance expertise, user friendly technology platform and partnerships with 3rd party capital.
  • CredAble’s post-invoice early payment platform provides all suppliers to get early payments against their invoices in exchange for a discount. It saves the enterprise client from the hassle of 1-on-1 negotiations with individual suppliers with its rate discovery tool. We are looking to unlock capital and create opportunities within an enterprise’s trade payables.

About the Client:

  • A leading e-commerce investee company and largest seller on a leading e-commerce company with a diverse and unorganized vendor base. Focused on apparel, accessories, electronics, and food among other products
  • Vendors experience credit periods of 45-60 days from invoice date with effective credit period of 40-55 days available for acceleration. 5 days are noted for operational delays at the bank or Client end
  • Client interested in enabling early payment leveraging third party capital

CredAble Solution:

  • CredAble partnered with an MNC bank to enable third party financing on the early payment program
  • Funding was off-balance sheet for vendors and did not change the trade payable nature of an invoice for the Client
  • Given the sheer volume of monthly invoices encountered by vendors, individual invoice level bidding was tedious and time-consuming. Hence, CredAble provided a hassle-free solution offering ‘fixed rate and full turnover’ program to vendors
  • CredAble’s team negotiated fixed annual rates with suppliers for automatic acceleration for immediate payment for all their invoices presented within a 12-month period
  • CredAble’s risk model in consultations with client sets a minimum target discount rate threshold for each supplier to ensure maximum rate optimization
  • All approved invoices are automatically accelerated for immediate payment. Based on mutually negotiated rates and tenor
  • Transaction level documentation digitally generated and distributed through platform

Impact Created:

  • Entire available credit period is auto accelerated. Vendors paid within 72 hours of invoice listing onto the platform
  • Vendors discount rate ranges for suppliers in this industry range from 13%-17%
  • Provided the client with a haircut financing structure to accommodate high frequency of customer returns
  • Influenced the Client to streamline its invoice approval process thereby enabling purchase order financing for its vendors  

CredAble understands supplier nuances within the E-commerce sector. We can engage with vendors at scale thereby creating process efficiencies for the Enterprise client and vendors.
