Additional Benefits

Many customers are demanding the signature proof-of-delivery (POD) on their packages before they will pay their invoices. Frequency of this type of demand is growing, especially within the retail industry.

Our visibility solution can generate these PODs and allows a client to submit these prior to vendor request. This ability allows a client to decrease a day's sales outstanding as well as increase cash flow. This includes proof of delivery and - if availabe - a clarified and digitized signature.
