Maria Luke, CEO and Co-Founder of Uelz Pay said, “We are convinced that Wayra’s entry will help us to take the next step in the consolidation and growth of the company. The challenge of managing collections in companies with recurring revenues is not just a technical challenge, it affects the entire billing process of a company and solving it can be the difference between survival and death,”.

The leading entrepreneurial event in southern Europe, South Summit 2023, was won by the Valencian startup. Companies can automate any recurring payment flow (fixed recurrence, variable, per use, fractional), and as a result, collect money anywhere in the world, through the use of the programme, which automates collections across multiple payment gateways and methods (card, sepa, and bank transfers, among others).

Furthermore, Uelz Pay allows the business to choose the mode of payment and the frequency of collection. After that, the business can use APIs to integrate the Uelz system into its own platform or generate payment links so that invoices can be distributed via email, WhatsApp, and social media.

Additionally, it allows them to keep track of all payments made and to obtain metrics and sales data, all of which are necessary for the business to be able to make decisions. Every piece of information is securely saved, and the platform gives a recovery after every transaction error, thereby substantially reducing the standard rate.
