Replace your accounts receivable spreadsheet. Customers pay the supplier who follows up. Excel won't do that. Sunbay will.

Sunbay sends reminders to your customers by email and SMS, and when a call is needed, it creates a task for your team.

Scattered spreadsheets with marked errors on the left, and on the right a Sunbay collections path with an email, a text message, a call and a payment chartRozrzucone arkusze z zaznaczonymi błędami po lewej, a po prawej ścieżka w Sunbay z e-mailem, SMS-em, telefonem i wykresem wpłat

Customer

Collections used to cost us PLN 5,000 to 10,000 a month.

Now, because we send interest notes automatically and customers actually pay them, the process makes us a few thousand a month instead.

Five things that change when you leave Excel

Click the one that hurts most, and we show how the same thing looks once Sunbay is set up.

Your customer usually has the money. They just choose who gets paid first, and they pay the ones who chase them. This is what your customer's payment queue looks like.

You don't chase, so you end up last. Sunbay reaches out 7 days before the due date.

A reminder before the due date isn't collections yet, just normal customer service. The older the invoice, the firmer the tone. The salesperson doesn't have to chase their own customer. The system sends the messages, and the salesperson is the first to know.

Pięć rzeczy, które zmieniają się po przejściu z Excela

Kliknij to, co najbardziej doskwiera. Obok pokazujemy, jak to samo wygląda, gdy Sunbay już działa.

Klient najczęściej ma pieniądze. Tylko że wybiera, komu zapłaci pierwszemu, i płaci tym, którzy się upominają. Tak wygląda kolejka przelewów u twojego klienta.

Nie upominasz się, więc stoisz na końcu. Sunbay przypomina o fakturze jeszcze przed terminem.

Przypomnienie przed terminem to jeszcze nie windykacja, tylko zwykła obsługa klienta. Im starsza faktura, tym stanowczejszy ton. Handlowiec nie musi sam upominać się u swojego klienta. Wiadomości wysyła system, także z jego skrzynki, a handlowiec widzi każdą z nich.

Excel won't remind your customer about an invoice.
Sunbay will.

How it works

Why simply following up changes so much

The system never forgets a due date

A person follows up when they have time. The system does it every time. Customers quickly learn that your due dates mean something.

The older the invoice, the harder it is to collect

An invoice you follow up on day three gets collected differently from the same invoice two months later. By then the customer may have spent the money on someone else.

Mentioning a law firm is often enough

You don't have to sue anyone or send in a bailiff. Just saying that the case may go there usually speeds up the payment.

You write differently after three days than after two months

One template for everyone either annoys a reliable customer or does nothing for the one who has been paying late for six months.

FAQ

Questions about switching from Excel

What changes when receivables no longer live in a spreadsheet.

Didn't find your answer?
Talk to our team

Can you run collections in Excel?

With a handful of invoices a month, a spreadsheet is enough. With hundreds, contact history starts to go missing, reminders depend on whether someone has time, and the data is only current on the day of the export. At that point a system that runs the process itself works better.

How do you move receivables from Excel to Sunbay?

To start, a CSV file with invoices and customer data is enough. Later Sunbay pulls the data straight from your ERP. You no longer need the spreadsheet, because invoice statuses update on their own.

How is Sunbay different from a spreadsheet of overdue invoices?

A spreadsheet shows who owes you, but it won't do anything for you. Sunbay sends reminders along your paths, acts on customer replies, assigns tasks and saves every agreement with the invoice, so you know what's happening with each case.

Why do customers pay the suppliers who follow up first?

A company with limited cash decides the order of its payments and pays first the suppliers who keep in touch, call or issue interest notes. Regular reminders move your invoices higher in that queue.

How much does it cost to send a demand letter or an interest note in Sunbay?

Demand letters and interest notes are part of the path, so you don't pay for each document separately. They're included in the Standard and Pro plans, which are priced by the number of invoices you issue each month.

What about agreements with customers that now sit in emails?

In Sunbay every promise to pay, request for an invoice copy or dispute is saved with the invoice, with the date and the person handling it. Sales and finance see the same history, so no one has to search someone else's inbox for what was agreed.
