Tailored financing solution
eCapital helps keep mining company’s operations running
When one of its largest customers extended payment terms to 90 days, a midsize mining company faced growing pressure on cash flow. The extended terms created challenges in maintaining operations and ensuring suppliers were paid on time.
To address these challenges, the company partnered with eCapital to implement a tailored supply chain finance solution that accelerated supplier payments, enhanced liquidity, and strengthened financial stability across its operations.
THE CHALLENGE
The company faced a familiar challenge for growing businesses—keeping operations running smoothly while managing tight cash flow. With working capital tied up in receivables, they needed a way to improve liquidity without adding debt or creating more administrative work. At the same time, ensuring suppliers were paid promptly was critical to maintaining strong partnerships and supply chain stability.
“When our payment terms were extended, it became clear we needed a smarter approach to managing liquidity,” said the VP of Finance. “We were looking for a solution that could free up cash without increasing leverage or disrupting day-to-day operations.”
The implementation was seamless. Our suppliers appreciated how simple the platform was to use, and we quickly saw benefits in our working capital position.”
