SWTSdirect™ makes the whole trade process easier and more cost effective for both buyers and sellers. From the time a buyer issues its purchase order to the time payment is made, SWTSdirect™ allows cash flows to improve and transactions and payments to flow easily and smoothly.


A whole new approach to pay for your goods

With SWTSdirect™, we provide you the flexibility of deciding when and how to pay your suppliers. Depending on your cash flow situation, you can take advantage of early payment discounts, pay suppliers as and when invoices are due, or benefit from extended terms that we provide.

At time of ordering goods, we can step into the transaction by purchasing the goods on your behalf, re-invoicing you with longer payment terms so that you complete your trade cycle, while all along goods are drop-shipped to you directly without interruptions or delays.

We help you manage your cash flow needs as you make your purchasing decisions, making sure that you settle payments with your suppliers in an organized and efficient manner.

Our services benefit both buyers and suppliers at the same time. The buyer benefits from a convenient and streamlined process of settling his trade transactions, while the supplier receives payment according to desired terms.

SWTSdirect™ offers you a trade solution to manage your cash flow while allowing your suppliers to get paid in an orderly and timely basis. We help you monitor your trade transactions starting with your purchase orders, followed by invoices with multiple due dates received from various suppliers, allowing you to make sure that your trade payables are all paid on time.

With each step in the process, SWTSdirect™ provides your business with the purchasing power, the simplification of trade transactions and extended payment terms to complete your trade cycle…a powerful combination that gives your company the competitive edge in today's global market.
