Recruitment agencies play a pivotal role in connecting businesses with the right talent. They often work on commission-based contracts, receiving payments only after successful placements. These agencies need to manage operational costs, invest in recruitment platforms, and sometimes even provide training or onboarding services for candidates.
A recruitment agency secures a contract to fill multiple positions for a large corporation. To find the right candidates, they need to invest in premium job boards, conduct extensive background checks, and possibly even provide preliminary training. However, the payment terms with the corporation are net-90 days post-placement, creating a significant gap where the agency must bear the costs. The implications of this financial gap include:
Delayed Services
Without immediate funds, the agency might postpone essential services like background checks or training, affecting the quality of candidates they provide.
Strained Client Relationships
Delays in delivering candidates can affect the agency's reputation and relationship with corporate clients.
Operational Hurdles
The agency might face challenges in accessing premium job boards or paying for essential services, affecting their efficiency.
The Solution
Recruitment agencies requires a financial solution that offers immediate access to funds, allowing them to deliver top-notch services without waiting for client payments.

With PlayterPay, recruitment agencies can manage their operational expenses seamlessly.
Job Board Invoices
Agencies can split the costs of premium job boards into manageable monthly payments, ensuring they can reach a wider pool of potential candidates.
Hire new talent internally
Whilst growth is positive for recruitment agencies, hiring new talent means front loaded costs to hire, train and develop new employees. PlayterPay helps break these costs down into manageable monthly payments
Training/Onboarding Invoices
For any training or onboarding services provided to candidates, agencies can manage these costs over time, ensuring they prepare candidates effectively for their roles.
PlayterFlex offers recruitment agencies a unique advantage when dealing with their B2B clients.
Enhanced Cash Flow
By invoicing their corporate clients through PlayterPaid, agencies can offer flexible payment terms, allowing clients to spread the cost of recruitment services over several months. This can be a significant value-add, especially for clients with tight budgets or those with large recruitment spend.
Immediate Payments
While clients enjoy flexible payment terms, the agency receives the full payment upfront, ensuring they can manage their operational costs without waiting for client payments.
Risk Free
PlayterPaid takes on the risk by underwriting the agency's clients, ensuring the agency is always paid in full and on time.
