AvantGard Payments

Many corporations are challenged by lack of infrastructure to support routing and approval of payments. As a result, many corporations still operate off of spreadsheets in a highly manual environment. This causes poor visibility to cash out-flows, high operational costs and risk of fraud. Compounding these challenges, many companies also rely on a fragmented array of systems for connectivity to SWIFT, Banks, ACH and check printing systems.



The AvantGard Payments solution offers a unique payments suite for streamlining the processing of payments helping to improve routing, connectivity and integration; reduce transactional and operational costs; increase security; and improve the management of payment information, exceptions, and statement flows.

AvantGard Receivables

Companies increasingly view the management of working capital, particularly accounts receivable, as an important measure of a company’s financial health. Historically, these operations have been highly inefficient as a result of the lack of integrated systems for Order-to-Cash management.

AvantGard Receivables drives automation, workflow and collaboration across the Order-to-Cash cycle, with detailed analysis and reporting capabilities for decision support.
