Promoting DX and Improving Cashflow for SMBs, Which Can Immediately Start Using the Service and Complete Payments in as Little as 5 Minutes
– DG announces that updated “DGFT Invoice Card Payment*1” to comply with the invoice system that came into effect on October 1, 2023, including multiple functions such as automatic screening.
“DGFT Invoice Card Payment” is a B2B payment service that enables back-office operations to improve productivity and extend payment due dates by switching invoice payments from bank transfers to credit card payments. By further improving usability, Digital Garage, Inc. (TSE Prime section: 4819; HQ: Tokyo; Representative Director, President Executive Officer and Group CEO: Kaoru Hayashi; DG) is helping promote back-office DX and supporting the financing needs of small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs).
More people are utilizing cashless payments, which are coming into widespread use in the Japanese market. At the same time, fraudulent credit card use is causing more damage, setting a record at 43 billion yen*2 in 2022. Measures against financial crime are gaining importance on the international stage and countries are collaborating to take steps against it. Japan is also establishing regulations and guidelines to enhance countermeasures against financial crime. Customer management-based financial crime measures are also important in the B2B payment field, including application screenings and fraud detection. However, there is a great deal of room for improvement in compliance checks, including speed, accuracy, and costs.
To solve these issues, “DGFT Invoice Card Payment” screening tasks have been automated for increased speed while maintaining a high level of detection quality. Users can immediately utilize the service after registration, and they can complete payments in as little as 5 minutes. These updates also allow the user to output receipts and detailed statements in compliance with the invoice system (qualified invoice-based method).
DG will continue providing B2B Fintech solutions to companies requiring speed and high quality with an advanced level of detection. In this way, it will help promote next-generation Fintech businesses and build a convenient, safe, and secure cashless society.
