Score of 82.3/100 qualifies for PaymentCheck Certification
A significant majority of payments (71%) are settled within 30 days, indicating a strong inclination towards promptness. Despite an average payment time of 33 days, this trend suggests consistent payment behavior, with most invoices being processed relatively quickly.
While most payments are prompt, the 8% of payments extending beyond 60 days and the 13% late payment rate introduce a degree of unpredictability. This suggests moderate volatility, requiring suppliers to account for potential extended delays on a small but notable portion of invoices.
ALLWYN ENTERTAINMENT LTD generally exhibits reliable payment practices, with a high proportion of on-time settlements. Suppliers should primarily consider the 8% risk of payments exceeding 60 days and may wish to implement clear payment terms or consider phased billing for larger projects to manage this specific exposure.
