Use Cases

A digital trade credit solution, built for B2B marketplaces

Industrial building

With over 400 industry specific B2B marketplaces in operation and one third of B2B buyers completing more than 50% of their purchases in a marketplace environment, one thing is abundantly clear: B2B marketplaces are here to stay.

As the space becomes increasingly saturated with competitive alternatives, B2B marketplaces must offer the best experience to buyers and sellers alike to prevent platform bypass and ensure customer stickiness.

Marketplace operators must cater to the demands of all parties operating on their platform. To protect their cash flow, sellers want payment up front while buyers expect access to trade credit, leaving marketplaces stuck in the middle with their cash flow exposed to fraud and credit risk. 

To do all this while handling ever-growing transaction volumes and reaching growth goals, B2B marketplaces need a trade credit solution that has been designed for their platforms.

Avoid platform bypass and grow your B2B marketplace when you offer better payment terms that benefit buyers and sellers.

Hokodo is the modern way to offer trade credit.

How it works

01

A buyer visits your marketplace as normal and places an order. In the background, Hokodo conducts credit eligibility and fraud risk checks.

02

When ready, the buyer heads to the checkout. They only see the payment terms for which they have been approved.

03

The buyer chooses their preferred payment plan and method, and confirms their order.

04

Hokodo pays you up front, preserving the cash flow of your marketplace and that of the supplier.

05

The buyer pays us back in line with their payment terms.
