If you're sending goods to a buyer, you can ask us to send documents proving that you've shipped the goods to the buyer's bank, and ask the buyer's bank to collect payment for you.
You can be more confident that you'll be paid for the goods you're sending.
Your buyer will know that the goods are on their way to the correct port.
Lower cost than an export letter of credit.
You retain control over shipping documents until you receive payment, or a promise of payment.
You pass us shipping documents proving that you’ve shipped the goods. We forward these documents, along with your payment instructions, to the buyer’s bank overseas. These documents are only released to the buyer when your payment terms and conditions are met.
The shipping documents are only released to the buyer when your payment terms and conditions are met. You can specify you want payment “at sight” which is immediately, or “term” which is when you agree to take payment at a specified later date. Once you’ve released the shipping documents to the buyer, they can then use them to collect their goods from the port.
