Case study : The HR Dept

Improving customer payment processes

The HR Dept offers personalised advice and support on human resources issues such as health and safety, performance management and disciplinary processes.

The company works on an outsourced basis with small businesses that require corporate-level HR expertise, removing the need for a dedicated in-house team. With a network of franchises across the UK and Ireland serving 6,000 SMEs, each HR Dept franchise owner has their own set of customers that they need to collect payments from.

The challenge

A smarter approach to payments

With a network of franchises serving more than 6,000 SMEs across the UK and Ireland, The HR Dept needed a more efficient way for both its central office and franchisees to collect customer payments. Without a Direct Debit provider in place, payment management was time-consuming, aged debt was increasing, and customers had to make payment changes through their banks, creating unnecessary delays.
