Score of 97.37/100 qualifies for PaymentCheck Certification
Payments show a strong trend of promptness, with an average time of 14 days and 99% of invoices settled within 30 days. This indicates a consistent trajectory of rapid payment processing, with almost no invoices extending beyond 60 days.
TRANSPORT TRADING LIMITED demonstrates high payment reliability, with 99% of invoices paid within 30 days. The low 1% extending to 31-60 days and 0% over 60 days indicates very low volatility, though a 10% late payment rate suggests minor, infrequent delays may occur.
Overall, TRANSPORT TRADING LIMITED presents a highly favorable payment profile with very low risk for suppliers. Suppliers can proceed with confidence, given their average 14-day payment and 99% within 30 days, minimizing the need for extensive risk mitigation. Monitoring the 10% late payment rate, while small, could be a minor ongoing consideration for cash flow planning.
