What Protect covers

Decide early. Monitor exposure. Cover the downside.

Protect brings credit decisions, monitoring, credit control and bad debt protection into the same workflow as your funding. It helps you consider client risk before you commit and keep track of exposure as the work continues.

Bad debt protection

Cover for eligible invoice value if a client defaults, so you can explore larger and newer clients with the downside considered.

  • Protection for eligible invoices
  • Cover, conditions and eligibility explained by our team
  • Discuss the accounts you want to take on

Aged debt monitoring

Know which debt needs attention before it becomes a problem. Overdue invoices grouped by age so teams act on the right ones first.

  • Overdue exposure, grouped by age
  • Prioritise what needs chasing
  • No spreadsheet tracking

Credit control

A people-first approach to keeping payments moving. An in-house Sonovate team chases invoices and resolves disputes on your behalf, or you keep the chase in-house with the platform behind you.

  • In-house team chases for you
  • Or run it yourself with platform structure (customer-managed credit control)
  • Professional handling that protects your client relationships

Questions about Protect

What CFOs and compliance leads ask.

How much of an invoice is protected?

Bad debt protection covers eligible invoice value if a client defaults. Our team will explain the level of cover available to you, the conditions that apply and whether it is part of your service or an option.

Can I check a new client before committing?

Yes. Instant Credit gives a fast in-platform view of whether Sonovate can support a new client or placement, with indicative limits, before you spend operational time.

Do I have to hand credit control to Sonovate?

No. You can use Sonovate's in-house credit control team, or keep the chase in-house with customer-managed credit control and use the platform for visibility, evidence and structure.

How is overdue debt tracked?

Aged debt monitoring groups overdue invoices by age so your team can prioritise the ones that need action first.
