Struggling with unpaid invoices? Are you looking for a way to speed payments and incentivize your clients to pay on time?

This is common knowledge, but how can you make it easier for those in receipt of your services to pay outstanding fees, so that your business reaps the benefits? After all, in the UK in January, average e-commerce weekly sales were at a staggering £1.2 million–a figure that is steadily increasing. We at Invoice Tracker have partnered with Stripe to assist you in this process. But what is Stripe, and how can their services help the cash flow in your business?
Identifying the need for easier online, electronic payment service, two brothers from Ireland started up Stripe in 2010–a tech company whose software allows businesses to receive payments safely online. This method has been outrageously popular, with the company valued at 9.2 billion dollars as of 2018, and used by more than 100,000 companies worldwide. Stripe’s services include billing product for businesses based online, so that companies can manage recurring subscriptions for revenue and invoicing. This platform makes it easy for your customers, allowing for instant payment 24/7. They can utilize the recurring payment cycle as well, so that payments are taken automatically and on time.
Similar to PayPal, Stripe has more features but lower fees. Handling billions of dollars annually, all from internet transactions means that half of Americans have likely used Stripe’s services in the past year if they have paid for a service online.
