What is debt collection?

Have you worked hard for your sales, but the payment keeps coming? That not only eats away at your liquidity, but also at your precious time. At Credifin, we believe that debt collection can be done differently: faster, more digitally and with more respect for the customer relationship.

In 2026, a simple letter or standard e-mail is no longer enough. That's why we combine psychologically smart communication with AI-driven technology. From friendly reminders via e-mail to the deployment of our experienced lawyers; we put the right pressure at the right time. Whether you have a one-time claim as an individual or thousands of invoices as a large corporate client: our goal is 94% success rate in the amicable phase. Without subscription fees, without small print.

  • Submitted within minutes
  • Completely safe and clear
  • Also suitable for bulk processing via API

Every debt collection starts with a payment problem, but which approach is best for your situation? We explain what steps there are. From a final reminder to starting legal proceedings. So you know exactly what to expect.

Final demand letter (WIK letter).

Does your customer not respond to your reminder? Then we will send a final reminder on your behalf. This gives your customer 14 days to pay. This is mandatory for private customers and is also called the WIK letter.

For many people, this is the time when they take action. The letter no longer comes from you, but from a collection agency - and that often provides enough pressure to pay. If the customer pays within 14 days, there are no extra costs. If not? Then we start the real amicable collection process and our specialists will collect your invoice.

Amicable collection

Still no payment coming in? Then the real collection work begins. We do this without litigation. We call, email, send text messages and letters - all clear, neat and firm. We charge interest and collection fees and explain the consequences of non-payment. Can't your client pay at once? Then we'll arrange a payment plan. This way we remain human, but clear. The result: a big chance that you will still get paid, without high costs.

Judicial collection

Is payment still not forthcoming? Then we can look at legal proceedings together. That sounds tough, but we guide you all the way. We explain what the chances are, what it will cost and what it will yield. Then we engage our bailiff and ask for a court ruling. With that judgment, we can enforce payment. So you know exactly where you stand and what your options are.

Rates and costs of a debt collection

Our services operate on the no cure, no pay principle. If we fail to collect your claim, you pay us nothing. In the event of a successful collection, we recover the collection costs from the debtor, so that you do not incur any additional costs.

However, costs may be charged for additional work, such as sending a final reminder, starting legal proceedings or filing for bankruptcy. We always inform you about such costs in advance and transparently.

We have no minimum amount: every claim counts. Whether it is a small or a large invoice, you can submit your file to us without any problem. In addition, we do not work with collection subscriptions. You engage us whenever you want, without fixed charges or hidden costs.

Turn- en Sportvereniging VIRTO

A very effective collection agency! We worked with Credifin Netherlands on an international B2B debt. They handled everything professionally, kept us informed and successfully collected the full amount from the debtor within a few days. Highly recommended for cross-border business debt collection.
