Get paid today instead of day-17

Normal Cerivio payout releases 17 days after an order is placed. Need the cash sooner? Opt into Early Payout and we advance the net payout minus a small fee (2-3% depending on tier). No paperwork, no additional bank, no personal guarantee.

1How it works

  1. Underwriting · one-time (refreshed monthly). Cerivio evaluates your tenure, trailing-90-day GMV, dispute rate and plan tier, then assigns a facility: LOW €500k, MEDIUM €200k, HIGH €50k, or DECLINED.
  2. Request per settlement. You pick pending orders totalling up to your available credit and post POST /api/v1/early-payout/request (or click "Accelerate" in your seller SPA).
  3. Advance is auto-approved if you have credit + a current assessment. Funds arrive in your bank within the hour (SEPA Instant where supported).
  4. Repayment is fully automatic. When Cerivio's nightly settlement cron pays out for the accelerated orders, we route the payout to our treasury instead of your bank · your ledger nets to zero. No invoice, no reconciliation.
No hidden costs. The fee is charged once, at advance time, on the accelerated amount. If a covered order gets refunded or disputed, Cerivio owns the receivable and pursues collection under your seller agreement · your fee is never adjusted.

Compare to invoice factoring (Aldermore, Bibby: 3-5% fee + 1.5-2.5% service charge) or a fintech factoring line (Wayflyer, Uncapped: 6-12% for 6 months). Cerivio Early Payout is priced for the 17-day duration only — you pay for the days you actually use.
