- TRADECARD LAUNCHED A NEW MARKETING WEB SITE
TradeCard launched a new web site on April 16 that explains the full range of tools it offers to automate your
financial supply chain. Included are its new modular applications: Trading Partner Management, which connects buyers,
sellers and their partners on a common platform for document management; AP/AR Management, which uses TradeCard's
patented compliance to check documents and schedule payments; and Financial Management, which is a set of automated
financial services that are integrated with service partners. Be sure to check out the Procure-to-Pay Demo,
accessible from the home page. To learn more, go to: www.tradecard.com
- CIT COMMERCIAL SERVICES JOINS WITH TRADECARD TO OFFER CREDIT PROTECTION SERVICES ON THE TRADECARD PLATFORM
Companies that use the TradeCard platform can manage their credit-protected receivables online while taking full
advantage of the rest of TradeCard's suite of online financial supply chain services, including electronic documents,
automated workflow/messaging, compliance, settlement and financing. Under the terms of a Factoring Agreement between
CIT and each vendor, vendors may elect, on a transaction-by-transaction basis, to purchase credit protection from
CIT. Payment for the receivable will be made by the buyer, or failing that, CIT, subject to the terms and conditions
of the Factoring Agreement. TradeCard manages this entire process - from PO to payment. To learn more, go to: www.tradecard.com/news/pressreleases/cit.html
