Publishing Solutions

One of the great challenges for publishing companies is international billing management.

For publishing companies, both print and online, (including magazines, newspapers, and books), invoicing for subscription on an international scale is a challenge. To comply with international standards save costs and administrative work, global publishing companies have started to outsource their international billing.

The ability to print invoices locally, in the local language with locally accepted payment methods, makes it easy for customers to subscribe quickly and considerably increase response rates of subscription offers. In addition, publishers will see their response rates grow significantly! !

Payment Challenges

• Global Subscribers
  Publishers often have subscribers on a worldwide scale. Billing them is difficult: all countries have their own preferred payment methods, currencies, and languages.
• Open Invoices
  In Western Europe, 70% of all payments are done through an open invoice, including a pre-formatted local bank transfer form (accept giro).
• Currency Exchange
  With cross border payments there are additional costs and currency exchange risk involved.
