Score of 93.8/100 qualifies for PaymentCheck Certification
PROSTATE CANCER UK demonstrates an excellent payment speed, with an average payment time of 17 days and 91% of invoices settled within 30 days. This indicates a consistent and highly favourable payment trajectory for suppliers, rarely extending beyond a standard payment cycle.
Payment reliability is high, as 0% of payments extend beyond 60 days, suggesting strong predictability for crucial payments. While 9% of invoices fall into the 31-60 day category, indicating minor sporadic delays, this represents a low-level risk factor with no extremely late payments.
Suppliers can assess PROSTATE CANCER UK as a highly reliable payer with minimal payment risk, given their rapid average payment time and high on-time payment rate. Key decision factors include the 91% within 30 days and zero payments over 60 days; standard credit terms are appropriate, with no significant risk mitigation strategies required beyond typical invoice follow-up for the small percentage of minor delays.
