Unblocking B2B payments

Sprinque is fixing a huge gap in the business payments landscape. While global B2B ecommerce is five times larger than its B2C equivalent, B2B checkouts are notoriously slow, manual, and lack the multiple payment options that characterize consumer counterparts.

Sprinque’s founders identified this gap and decided to narrow it by building a Pay by Invoice platform, to let merchants offer net payment terms to bolster their online sales channels. B2B merchants can easily implement Sprinque’s Pay by Invoice solution into various online purchasing flows to drive conversions and retention rates. Sprinque relieves merchants from manually handling invoices and collection, and offers business buyers better terms via a fully embedded, white labeled product.

Knowing when to build & when to buy

Sprinque’s founders had deep grasp of the payments space. They leveraged this expertise to build their infrastructure from the ground up, but recognized it might be wise to outsource some of their product's domains. Building the platform's risk and underwriting elements in-house would consume time and resources that could delay their ambitious go-to-market plans.

Sprinque made the strategic decision to own their credit underwriting logic, but to outsource the engine to build and maintain it. They sought a partner with the expertise and a proven track record to keep pace with their product development milestones.

Aligning on common goals and values

Sprinque set clear criteria for what they needed. They sought a flexible platform to help them manage both KYB and underwriting workflows in-house, without exhausting development resources.

They also needed a provider that could demonstrate:

They found all of these in Noble.

A partnership built to support global growth

After reviewing several platforms, Sprinque chose Noble to manage their underwriting process. Integration took under six weeks and was in place when the product went live a few months later. Noble empowered their Credit and Risk team to independently build and deploy country-specific policies to support expansion to new markets. They initially launched in the Netherlands, Spain and Germany, and they will soon expand their service to the UK, France and the Nordics. Sprinque’s Pay by Invoice lets B2B merchants secure cash flow and mitigate risk. Buyers get a better shopping experience and the payment terms they expect.
