In this content, we will make explanations about prioritizing payments. Although we acknowledge the trade as exporting or importing products, it means that a process that has not been collected has not been completed. The payment behavior of companies plays a critical role in the completion of the trading process.
Especially in deferred payments, the strategies of the creditor companies are determinative against the stereotyped payment. Actually these behaviors of the debtor companies in order to prevent the payment due after the product or service is provided.
There are steps to be taken in order to change these behaviors. And move your company to the forefront in prioritizing payments of debtor companies.
So, how are these stereotypical payment behaviors shaped? How does payment prioritization occur in debtor companies? The answer to these questions will direct the strategy to be applied by the creditor companies.
The Criterias Prioritizing Payments
Let’s handle with the subject individually first. We can consider a pool where there are items such as;
- The rent payment to be made to the landlord,
- The credit / credit card payment to be paid to the bank,
- The payment of the electricity bill,
- The payment of the internet bill
- And the payment of the debt received from the friend.
What will be the order of the payments we will make here? The criteria taken in prioritizing payments are generally to meet the basic requirements.There are penalties for non-payment. We also analyze situations where deferral is more likely. In this case, meeting our accommodation needs will be the first priority for us. And the rent payment will be an item we will prioritize.
Takes The Court!
The credit / credit card debt to be paid to the bank will be another item to be prioritized. Legal sanctions are given such as execution / interest application, if not paid.
Stops the Service
Afterwards, we will take one step forward to pay the electricity and internet bills. They are not as basic as accomodation but are necessary today.
Covers Me!
A loan from a friend, for whom it is more possible to defer, will be at the bottom of this ranking. By adapting this minor sampling to companies trading in the market, we can create a more major picture. The criteria considered during the prioritizing payments in companies can be summarized as interest and maturity differences to be applied, stopping the ongoing service, damaging the reputation of the company and especially working with a professional receivable management company for debt collection by creditor companies.
The situation is not so different in Turkey. Mankind generally does same things while they are in a debtor position. We are always afraid of to face with legal process. In order for companies to collect their delayed receivables, they need to create the awareness that the practices specified will be applied to the companies they trade with.

Examining these conditions one by one will also give companies an idea of applicability. Applying maturity difference for delayed payments; this sanction should be clearly stated in the contract signed between the parties in the trade made, and it should be stated that interest will be charged for the delays at the end of the term and the maturity difference will occur.
In the case of delayed payments, stopping the ongoing service is an effective sanction method. Especially this should be applied between parties with continuous trade relationships. In order not to lose the trade volume that will occur in the future, it triggers the debtor company positively in terms of prioritizing payments.
Especially in the process of delayed payments, damage to the reputation of debtor companies has great importance. We can give this example; This situation is important for companies which are working in restricted areas.
