Case Study: The Cutting Edge Elite achieves a 90% reduction in overdue receivables with PaySimple

Startup staffing company obliterates overdue receivables using PaySimple

The Cutting Edge Elite is a New York City event staffing company founded by Nathan Perry that expanded from catering into full-service event staffing. Early on the company struggled with late client payments that jeopardized payroll and cash flow—at one point carrying $20–30K in past-due receivables—and found larger merchant providers unresponsive when payment issues arose.

After switching to PaySimple and using hosted online payment forms, clients could pay instantly and receive receipts, eliminating mailed checks and long holds. The result: dramatically faster collections, about a 90% reduction in overdue receivables, happier customers, and a much-improved overall experience.
