Svatantra services clients in the most rural parts of India. Their biggest challenge is timely cash collection and deposits.
Their cash collection team had to collect EMIs from remote corners and deposit the cash in bank. They were either unable to complete the day’s collection due to geographic spread of customers or failed to deposit cash at bank within banking hours. Cash rotated on intra-day basis and sometimes up to 3 to 4 days during bank holidays and weekends; this led to increased cash handling risk and cash management issues.

Collaboration with PayNearby has given Svatantra deep in-roots to areas which were not serviced earlier. The collaboration has also led to high service deliverance rate in the cash collection vertical. Collection volume has increased by 50% MOM basis.
