Nothing is charged on invoices your customers pay after our chasing. Only debts that go to formal recovery carry a percentage, and for subscribers that percentage is a fifth lower at every age of debt.

Three ways to work with us

Recover what is late, stop it happening again, or claim what you were owed in the past.

Use one, or combine them. Recovery and the audit need no subscription. Credit control subscribers pay a fifth less on every debt we recover.

Recovery only

For invoices that are late now

Instruct late invoices one at a time and pay only when we collect. The rate is fixed by the age of the debt on the day you instruct it and does not change afterwards. We claim the statutory interest and compensation with the debt, and you remain the creditor throughout: we never buy your debt.

Money is collected into a segregated client account, reconciled daily and remitted to you within two working days of clearing, with an itemised statement showing the debt, the statutory sums and our fee.

You pay10 to 25%of what we recover10% under 90 days late, 15% from 90 days to a year, 25% beyond. 18% on the interest and compensation.No recovery, no fee

Credit control, recovery included

For businesses that want invoices paid on time

One monthly fee runs the whole ledger: a reminder seven days before an invoice falls due, the escalation ladder afterwards, in your own name from your own address. Statutory interest is calculated per invoice to the day, every customer is watched at Companies House, and you see everything in the portal. Growth adds director history and disqualification checks, monitoring alerts by email and text, pre-onboarding credit checks and a quarterly review; Scale adds unlimited pre-onboarding checks, a credit limit review every month, the API and a monthly review call.

Anything that still has to be recovered formally is charged at the lower subscriber rate. No minimum term, 30 days' notice.

You pay£295a month, fromStarter £295 to 50 invoices a month, Growth £495 to 150 with director checks and monitoring alerts, Scale £795 above that with unlimited pre-onboarding checks and the API. Recovery at 8, 12 or 20% by age. 15% on interest and compensation.No minimum term

Late Payment Audit

For invoices that were paid late in the last six years

The interest and compensation the law gave you is still owed after the invoice is paid, for six years in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and five in Scotland. We go through your paid-late history, work out the entitlement on each invoice and claim it in Clearline's name as your agent, not on your letterhead.

Former customers by default. Live customers only if you say so. The audit itself is free to run and you get the written report either way.

The rate card

Every rate, side by side.

The recovery rate is set by the age of the debt on the day you instruct it. On the statutory interest and compensation we claim alongside it, a separate rate applies.

What we recoverRecovery onlyCredit control subscribers
Debt under 90 days late10%8%
Debt from 90 days to a year15%12%
Debt more than a year late25%20%
Statutory interest and compensation claimed with a debt18%15%
Late Payment Audit, on invoices already paid18%15%
Monthly feeNoneStarter £295, Growth £495 or Scale £795
Admin fees, hourly rates, minimum termNoneNone
What about court fees?

Court fees are only ever incurred with your written approval, and never where the economics do not justify them. We will tell you when the expected recovery does not justify the fee.

What is claimed on every debt either way?

Statutory interest at the Bank of England base rate plus 8 points, on the gross sum including VAT, and fixed compensation of £40, £70 or £100 per invoice under the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998. You can tell us to waive it on any customer.

Is there VAT on your fees?

Our fees are shown before VAT, which is added at the standard rate where it applies.

Can I stop?

Recovery has no commitment: instruct one debt at a time. Credit control has no minimum term and 30 days' notice. Debts already instructed continue to their conclusion at the rate that applied when you instructed them.
