Avoiding the Payment Evader; PayRisk Offers Secure Ways to Screen Potential Businesses and Collect Debts
| Source: PayRisk
FT. LAUDERDALE, FL--(Marketwire - August 24, 2009) - Debtors in Spain might open their front
doors to find anything from costumed bullfighters to a person dressed as a
chicken or Buddha. These characters have one job only: collecting money
from debtors, whether through scare or shame tactics. Luckily, businesses
using PayRisk won't need to dress-up in crazy costumes anytime soon.
While intimidation or humiliation tactics are one way to ensure companies
receive their dues, U.S. laws make it a little tougher to push debtors to
pay up. For those who have been on the debtor end of things, this is a
relief. But for first parties (those owed money), second parties lingering
in debt limbo can cost an entire business, as companies continue to close
at an alarming rate of more than 300 businesses per day, according to a
recent USA Today article. Small businesses simply can't afford to spend
precious dollars paying debt collection agencies to hound debtors. SMBs
need a new, effective way to protect their pocketbooks and collect
payments. PayRisk offers a new kind of security at a fraction of the old
price.
PayRisk (www.PayRisk.com), an online community geared toward protecting
small to medium businesses from clients who won't pay, wants to eliminate
this debt-risk entirely. Rather than waiting until a company is knee-deep
in debtors, PayRisk encourages a proactive approach in which companies list
past clients that have failed to make payments. "PayRisk.com is a place
where business owners can collect their debts, publish information
regarding who owes them money, attempt to collect via the site and search
the database for protection from those who have a series of outdated
collection issues," PayRisk founders said.
By joining PayRisk, companies can identify known-debtors and avoid making a
sale that will likely end in either pricey debt collection or without any
payment at all. Additionally, companies using PayRisk can become educated
about how to collect on their own when necessary, cutting out the cost of
debt collection agencies.
In the current economy, businesses might do better to turn down a sale
completely than to sell a product for which it will never receive payment.
When clients don't pay, businesses either spend expensive time trying to
collect on their own or must hire debt collectors that will claim a high
percentage of the amount owed. A program like PayRisk can help eliminate
the hazard of these financial losses. When businesses join, they are able
to pre-screen non-paying customers through a compiled database of factual,
unbiased and accurate "PayRisks." In addition, businesses can add their own
past due and uncollected payments to this list, as well as take advantage
of fully automated, do-it-yourself collection.
A special value membership is offered to the first 100,000 members for a
cost of $199 for the first six months with an additional six months for
free. More flexible monthly and quarterly billing options are also
available. These memberships include unlimited listings for collection and
unlimited search capabilities for protection. Pay Per Search memberships
are also offered for a single charge of $2.99 for each search conducted.

professionals to provide a low-cost, efficient method of collecting debts
via an online community. Information is shared with PayRisk members to
avoid non-paying customers. PayRisk.com is an objective, third-party Web
