Slope provides Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) solutions designed for business-to-business (B2B) transactions, specifically targeting small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Their service allows these businesses to manage their working capital more effectively by offering flexible payment options. When a transaction occurs, Slope charges a 6% merchant fee and pays the merchant immediately after goods are shipped or services are delivered. This process removes the risk of bad debt and the burden of payment collections from the seller, enabling them to concentrate on growth. Slope differentiates itself from competitors by focusing exclusively on B2B transactions, simplifying access to capital for growing businesses, and alleviating the financial pressures associated with credit decisions and loan servicing.
