Outsourced Credit Control

White-Label Credit Control. Your Brand. Your Customers. Your Voice.

How does 4D Contact help businesses manage and outsource credit control?

4D Contact provides outsourced credit-control services for large B2B organisations. Contacting your customers under your brand, in your tone and voice, we work as an extension of your in-house team or provide a fully outsourced credit-control service. Our highly trained, multilingual credit controllers help you meet cash-collection targets while protecting valuable customer relationships.

We have extensive experience supporting in-house teams and shared service centres, providing continuity through recruitment gaps, seasonal peaks and changing workloads. Whether you need support within one territory or business unit, or across several, our flexible, scalable service extends coverage across your customer base and reduces the burden on overstretched internal teams without increasing your internal headcount. We work within your existing systems or use 4D Contact’s technology, adapting to your processes and reporting requirements.

For businesses seeking a fully outsourced credit-control function, we build a white-label service around your brand, customers and commercial objectives. We combine experienced people, proven collections processes and technology to improve payment performance and cash flow. Our “always on” service removes the burden of recruiting and managing an internal team, whilst providing continuity, clear reporting and the flexibility to scale as your business grows.

Through high-quality, voice-led contact in your customers’ local language, we identify and resolve barriers to payment early. Addressing queries before they become prolonged disputes helps improve payment performance and customer experience, keeping customers trading and optimising cash flow.

I have worked with Richard, Mark and the 4D Contact team very successfully for the last seven months. During this time, they have managed on behalf of Travis Perkins a high volume, low value portfolio of overdue debt ranging from 30 days overdue to the more difficult +120 days bucket, collecting in excess of £8m.
