Retail Business: Transform Payments, Achieve Growth

When you are asked to ‘deliver more with less’, small changes to your process can have a large impact. You need payments processes and partners who will support you in transforming how you make your payments and manage spend. Are you looking to:

  • Gain increased certainty and visibility over their currency exposure from imports and exports
  • Halve payment timelines including payroll payments by tripling the number of payments that can be made at one time
  • Integrate international payments across payment platforms
  • Automate travel and expense processes
  • Discuss your payments needs with a supplier with a supplier with expertise in retail and wholesale, who can support you with streamlined services?

Reduce Financial Risk of Imports and Exports

Retail and wholesale businesses large or small who are importing and exporting product are at the mercy of both exchange rates and fees from their provider - often without a personal account manager handling their work. Caxton offer a personal account manager to all businesses regardless of size, as well as a range of advice and hedging solutions to individually tailor solutions to your business' exact currency needs.

Reduce Administration of Employee Spend and Travel

The best retail and wholesale importers are always travelling and getting new samples and contacts – creating a stream of budget approvals, expense reports, and employee reimbursements, not to mention tracking spending for individual projects and organising information to set future budgets. In such a complex ecosystem, manual expense management invites room for delays, errors, and fraud or losses.

When you opt to abandon outdated manual expense processes, in favour of an automated expense management platform, the benefit is a multiplier of all staff. Moving to an automated expense management platform means diverting time spent chasing incomplete forms to reimburse employees, to more strategic work for all teams involved.

Halve payment timelines with streamlined bulk and payroll payments​

Sending hundreds or thousands of payments to staff and suppliers each month can be labour intensive and expensive. Overseas payments add an additional level of expense and labour. Maintaining adequate cash flow is one of the most important factors for any business day to day, so making bulk and payroll payments 1-2 weeks before the actual payday can leave businesses with a hole in their balance sheet. Automating payroll payments can lead to same-day payments, which could see your business in a better financial position.
