müügikrediidi

Müügikrediit, also known as sales credit, is a financial arrangement where a seller allows a buyer to defer payment for goods or services purchased. This essentially means the seller is extending a short-term loan to the buyer, enabling them to receive the product or service immediately and pay for it later. It's a common practice in business-to-business transactions, though it can also appear in certain consumer contexts.

The terms of a müügikrediit agreement typically include the credit limit, the payment due date, and any applicable interest rates or late payment penalties. For the seller, offering müügikrediit can be a powerful tool for increasing sales volume and customer loyalty by making purchases more accessible. It can also help in competing with other businesses that offer similar payment flexibility.

However, extending müügikrediit also carries risks for the seller. The primary risk is the possibility of non-payment or delayed payment by the buyer, which can impact the seller's cash flow and profitability. To mitigate these risks, sellers often conduct credit checks on potential buyers and establish clear credit policies. They may also use credit insurance or require collateral in some cases. For the buyer, müügikrediit offers improved liquidity and the ability to manage their own cash flow more effectively, potentially allowing them to invest in inventory or operations without immediate cash outlay.
