Order-to-Cash
Bundle order management along with payment and fraud services for a complete order-to-cash (O2C) platform that turns CapEx into OpEx.
With differentiators like customizable reporting, a fully integrated customer service tool and support for international and multicurrency payment processing, our O2C platform is not your typical legacy OMS and it’s not an oversimplified cloud-based solution. Instead, this “business function as a service” model combines the best of both worlds, equipping you with full-service order management functionality (e.g. support for DOM, subscription, lot management, tax and VAT calculations, etc.) and cloud benefits (e.g. easy to setup, affordable, scalable, etc.).
Why do I need fraud services in addition to a fraud tool?
As a fraud services provider, we implement, plan and monitor your fraud activity according to the latest industry standards. Our management team has a combined 40+ years of fraud experience. We have an in depth understanding of the threats facing your business and decades of experience effectively minimizing those threats by applying a combination of knowledge and technology.
We offer extensive experience with the leading fraud platforms, but we also stay on top of the latest features and tools being released daily to ensure our solutions are kept up-to-date with the best protection available. As an example, implementation of Ekata, a newer identity verification application, led to additional fraud savings of $26K per month for one PFS client. By leveraging our team, you are able to focus on what you do best—running your business—while we mitigate any threats to your operation.
How do I know my customer data is secure?
PFS’ systems and operations comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) guidelines for Level 1 version 4.0 compliance, the highest level available. We continually monitor our solution through self-assessment and annual audits that ensure the protection of your data.
What if my business has unique threats?
We aren’t offering a one-size-fits-all solution – every solution PFS designs is unique to each business. Whether you are a nutraceuticals company struggling with online payment constrictions or an apparel brand selling high value products with increased counterfeit risk, we work with you to implement the rules and guidelines that ensure the right balance of risk tolerance and quality service.
