Overview

Cashfree Payments allows you to facilitate line of credit(LOC) for customers through your services with the help of lending partners. The customer flows to the loan management system journey once the loan origination journey is successful.

You can manage the line of credit(LOC) for a customer using the Loan Management System APIs. You can easily share bank account details, request for a loan, get details of a particular loan request, and upload the invoice for the lending partner to sanction the amount.

📘

Customers refer to retailers who borrow money to pay for the invoices raised by the dealer/distributor.

Line of Credit(LOC)

A line of credit(LOC) establishes a maximum loan amount that a customer can borrow. Your customers can request multiple loan requests within the maximum loan amount till the line is active. The customers need to repay as per the signed agreement to borrow again from the line of credit(LOC) limit.

Invoice Financing

We offer invoice financing as a part of the line of credit(LOC). It allows your customers to borrow money using unpaid invoices. On behalf of your customer, the sanctioned loan amount is paid directly to the dealer/distributor who raised the invoice for the customer to pay. The customer needs to repay the borrowed amount along with an interest.
