Debt recovery in the transport sector
Secure your cash flow beyond the “Loi Gayssot”
The performance of the transport sector depends as much on delivery speed as it does on timely payments. While the Loi Gayssot acts as your shield against insolvency, it does not protect you from payment delays that put your cash flow at risk. In a sector with high cost pressure, you can rely on our debt collection solution to automate your reminders and ensure the 30-day legal limit is respected, turning your receivables into available cash. Debt recovery is no longer a secondary task; it is what protects your daily operations.
A solution validated by transport professionals
With extensive experience and numerous references among key transport players, our recovery processes are tailored to your specific legal requirements. We help you assert your rights with firmness and professionalism, ensuring your industry expertise is finally paid its true value.
Loi Gayssot and transport debt recovery
The Loi Gayssot is your legal guarantee to secure payments in all circumstances. It allows you to seek payment directly from the sender or the recipient. However, it does not shield you from payment delays. Even if you are eventually paid, these delays strain your daily cash flow.
Loi Gayssot and payment terms
The law provides the framework, but CashNow provides the action. We automate your reminders to guarantee compliance with the 30-day legal term, reducing the impact of late payments on your financial health.
The "Direct Action" scenario
If the intermediary who booked the transport (broker, platform) fails to pay or goes bankrupt, you can demand payment directly from the sender or the recipient. CashNow helps you immediately identify invoices eligible for this direct recourse and adapt your customer collection scenario to secure your profits.
Carrier liability
Because your liability is engaged from the moment you take charge of the goods, it is only fair that your payment be secured. CashNow helps you provide proof of successful execution to lift any payment blockages.
Debt recovery: transport vs. logistics
Unpaid invoice recovery in transport differs from logistics. CashNow adapts your debt recovery methods based on the nature of the service:
Road transport
Strict application of the “Loi Gayssot” with reminder scenarios adapted to the 30-day legal limit.
Logistics and warehousing
Here, we move beyond Gayssot into common law. Payment terms depend on your specific contract. Recovery in logistics requires close monitoring as delays tend to stretch. CashNow centralizes both worlds so no invoice is forgotten.
Dispute management and cargo insurance
In road transport, disputes, whether regarding damage, delays, or missing items, are often used as excuses to freeze an entire invoice. With the CashNow platform, dispute management in the transport sector becomes a cash lever. If there is an issue with only part of the shipment, you isolate the problem to collect payment for the undisputed portion without delay.
By integrating your proof of delivery (POD) directly into the reminder process, you clarify the carrier’s liability and limit bad-faith disputes. Finally, through integrated tracking of your insurance guarantees, CashNow ensures every compensation file is handled efficiently to preserve your liquidity.
Why choose CashNow for your transport company?
Debt recovery management in the transport sector requires a level of reactivity that manual Excel methods can no longer provide without risking costly errors. CashNow automates the prioritization of your reminders so you can focus on the most critical invoices. This leads to an immediate productivity gain, allowing your teams to focus on the files that truly impact your cash flow.
With total visibility over your receivables, you track every step from invoicing to actual payment, all while ensuring the application of the Loi Gayssot. This approach allows you to transform your invoices into available cash while maintaining healthy customer relationships. Your reminder scenarios remain firm on legal deadlines but maintain a professional tone that protects your long-term commercial partnerships.
