Spintop Ventures invests in Inkassogram,a Swedish game changing debt collection platform

admin March 16, 2016 No Comments

Spintop Ventures invests in Inkassogram – a Swedish game changing debt collection platform to get late invoices paid in a quick, user-friendly, polite and fair manner.

The company’s “reversed business model” focus on getting invoices to be paid quickly, rather than the industry’s practice of optimizing own revenues per case by slowing the payment processes. The company’s efficient platform and app enable all kinds of companies to efficiently run a hassle free, customer friendly and highly automated debt collection process – it only takes a few minutes to get the free process started. This in essence opens up the largely un-served SME segment, a potentially large market segment.

The invoice debt collection market is a highly profitable and large sector ripe for a new approach and there is substantial potential for Inkassogram.

The Stockholm and Gothenburg based company is run by an experienced entrepreneur team with extensive background in invoicing and debt collection processes.
