Late payments, which lead to cash-flow gaps, is one of the biggest pain points facing small businesses today. It is mission critical for businesses to remain cash-flow positive so they can address key day-to-day operational needs, including payroll, rent or purchasing of inventory and supplies.

We also uncovered several Fortune 100 corporations who have long payment terms for their small-business vendors.
