When B2B sellers evaluate financing solutions to improve cash flow and offer payment flexibility, Kickfurther and Terms.Tech emerge as two options serving different business needs. Kickfurther provides inventory funding for product-based businesses needing capital before items sell, while Terms.Tech offers working capital and payment terms for European merchants, marketplaces, and ecommerce businesses across the EEA and Switzerland. For US-based manufacturers, distributors, and wholesalers seeking to offer net payment terms while receiving immediate cash, Resolve Pay delivers an integrated credit-to-cash platform built specifically for established B2B sellers. This comparison explores each platform's approach and why Resolve Pay's combination of non-recourse financing, AI-supported credit decisions, and accounts receivable automation makes it a strong fit for scaling US B2B businesses.
The fundamental distinction between these platforms lies in when and how they provide capital to businesses, and which markets they serve.
Kickfurther operates as an inventory funding platform for product-based businesses. The platform provides capital to help companies fund inventory purchases before products sell, with repayment structured around inventory sales. Kickfurther evaluates businesses based on revenue, inventory, sales performance, purchase orders, and the specific funding opportunity.
Terms.Tech operates as an AREA42 working capital and B2B payment-terms solution across the European Economic Area and Switzerland. The platform enables merchants to offer payment terms that may extend up to 120 days while receiving payment upon proof of delivery. Terms.Tech serves merchants, marketplaces, and ecommerce businesses with eligible buyers registered in supported markets and holding a valid VAT number.
Resolve Pay addresses the specific challenge US B2B sellers face: offering competitive net terms (Net 30/60/90) to business buyers while maintaining healthy cash flow. The platform solves the receivables timing problem, the gap between issuing invoices and receiving payment with an integrated approach covering credit assessment through collection.
Capital timing: Up to 90% of approved invoice value within 24 hours
Kickfurther specializes in helping product businesses fund inventory production runs. The platform provides up to 100% inventory-cost funding with flexible schedules and payment tied to inventory sales, offering non-dilutive capital that doesn't require giving up debt or equity.
Terms.Tech provides payment terms solutions designed for European B2B transactions. The platform enables merchants across diverse industries from agriculture to electronics to offer deferred payment options to business buyers, with support for online and offline B2B sales and REST API integration options.
Resolve Pay combines net terms financing, business credit assessment, and accounts receivable automation into a single platform purpose-built for US B2B sellers.
Non-recourse financing: Advances up to 90% of approved invoice value within 24 hours. Qualifying Resolve Pay invoice advances are non-recourse for covered buyer credit defaults, subject to buyer approval, invoice validity, verification, exclusions, seller obligations, and applicable program terms.
AI Credit Engine: Proprietary technology evaluating thousands of buyer data points for credit decisions. Some workflows can return rapid decisions, while transactions requiring verification may take longer depending on complexity.
AR Automation: Automated invoice generation, payment reminders, reconciliation, and collections that reduce repetitive AR work, allowing teams to focus on strategic activities rather than manual processing.
Agentic Collections: Multi-channel automated sequences (email, SMS, voice AI) with intelligent escalation that maintains customer relationships while improving collection efficiency.
White-label payment portal: Branded buyer dashboard maintaining seller's identity throughout the payment experience, creating seamless interactions that reinforce brand value.
This comprehensive approach eliminates the need for multiple vendors and point solutions, providing end-to-end visibility of the payment lifecycle.
Understanding eligibility criteria helps businesses determine which solution aligns with their situation.
Kickfurther evaluates businesses based on multiple factors including revenue, inventory, sales performance, purchase orders, and the specific funding opportunity. The platform serves physical product companies with established manufacturing or sourcing relationships and positive sales trajectory.
Terms.Tech's eligibility centers on European market access. The platform operates across the European Economic Area and Switzerland, with eligible buyers registered in supported markets and holding a valid VAT number. Terms.Tech serves broad industry coverage across agriculture, electronics, health, logistics, and more.
Resolve Pay focuses on business creditworthiness and buyer qualification rather than arbitrary thresholds:
This approach enables more established businesses to offer competitive payment terms while maintaining cash flow health.
The ability to connect with existing business systems determines implementation speed and ongoing efficiency.
Kickfurther's model focuses on inventory transactions. The platform provides inventory funding with flexible payment schedules, though businesses typically manage inventory financing separately from their core financial workflows.
Terms.Tech offers technical integration options for European merchants through REST API with webhooks and a self-service manual tool for testing and order entry. Developer support is available for complex implementations, with timeline varying based on integration complexity.
Resolve Pay provides a comprehensive integration ecosystem for US businesses:
Automatic transaction recording: Syncs directly to accounting software linked to original invoices, eliminating duplicate entry and reconciliation errors.
Embedded checkout: Net terms options appear naturally in existing purchase flows, creating frictionless buyer experiences.
Auto-import: Customer information pulled automatically, eliminating manual entry and reducing data errors.
Real-time reconciliation: AI-supported matching reduces month-end close time by automatically pairing payments with invoices.
System synchronization: Resolve Pay can synchronize customer, invoice, payment, and reconciliation information depending on the connected system and configuration.
Implementation timing depends on systems, configuration, data mapping, testing, custom APIs, and internal approvals. Most Resolve Pay implementations involve collaboration between the Resolve team and the seller's technical and finance stakeholders to ensure smooth deployment.
Different business situations call for different solutions. Here's how each platform addresses specific needs:
Kickfurther addresses inventory funding needs for CPG brands and physical product companies. The platform provides capital to manufacture or purchase inventory before sales occur, with sales-based repayment over fixed schedules. This non-dilutive funding approach helps product businesses manage production cycles without taking on traditional debt or giving up equity.
Terms.Tech serves European B2B merchants operating in the EEA or Switzerland with buyers who hold valid VAT numbers. The platform enables merchants to offer payment terms that may extend up to 120 days, with API capabilities for e-commerce platform integration across the European market.
Resolve Pay excels for US B2B sellers across multiple scenarios:
Resolve Pay supports established B2B sellers across diverse sectors:
For US-based manufacturers, distributors, and wholesalers, Resolve Pay provides clear advantages through its integrated credit-to-cash platform approach:
Qualifying Resolve Pay invoice advances are non-recourse for covered buyer credit defaults, subject to buyer approval, invoice validity, verification, exclusions, seller obligations, and applicable program terms. This enables confident net terms offers without the anxiety of complete exposure to customer payment failure, while the platform's AI-supported credit engine evaluates thousands of buyer data points for credit decisions.
Resolve Pay's AR automation capabilities include AI-supported invoicing, reminders, and reconciliation, plus automated collections that preserve customer relationships. Smart payment matching eliminates manual reconciliation work, and the agentic collections system uses multi-channel sequences with intelligent escalation. These capabilities reduce repetitive AR work, allowing finance teams to focus on strategic activities rather than manual processing.
Unlike European-focused platforms, Resolve Pay's native integrations with QuickBooks, NetSuite, Shopify, and BigCommerce enable automatic data synchronization, zero manual entry for transactions, and seamless workflow integration within the US business infrastructure. The platform can synchronize customer, invoice, payment, and reconciliation information depending on the connected system and configuration.
Resolve Pay's AI Credit Engine can deliver rapid decisions for some workflows, while transactions requiring verification may take longer depending on complexity. This flexibility enables faster sales cycles and improved customer experience compared to traditional manual credit review processes.
Rather than solving one piece of the puzzle, Resolve Pay combines credit assessment, invoice advances, AR automation, collections management, and payment reconciliation in a single integrated platform. This approach eliminates vendor sprawl and provides end-to-end visibility of the payment lifecycle.
Resolve Pay customers have reported various outcomes, though individual results vary and are not guaranteed:
Archipelago Lighting reduced net terms approval time from 10 days to under 24 hours while growing revenue.
Trenchless Supply reduced AR workload significantly while achieving credit approvals in under 24 hours.
These examples illustrate the platform's combination of faster funding, credit protection, and operational efficiency gains, though specific outcomes depend on implementation, business model, market conditions, and buyer mix.

Resolve Pay serves established US B2B sellers including manufacturers, distributors, and wholesalers across diverse industries.

Industries served include HVAC parts distribution, electrical and plumbing supplies, industrial equipment manufacturing, medical and pharmaceutical distribution, construction materials, commercial kitchen equipment, and packaging and shipping supplies.
With non-recourse financing, qualifying invoice advances are protected for covered buyer credit defaults, subject to buyer approval, invoice validity, verification, exclusions, seller obligations, and applicable program terms. This means that for approved transactions meeting program requirements, you receive protection against certain buyer non-payment scenarios. Resolve Pay offers this structure on approved invoices, enabling businesses to confidently offer competitive payment terms to win larger orders while managing credit risk. This differs from traditional factoring or recourse financing where sellers remain liable for customer defaults.
Resolve Pay enables US B2B sellers to offer standard net payment terms including Net 30, Net 60, and Net 90 to business buyers. The platform's AI-supported credit engine evaluates buyer creditworthiness to determine appropriate terms for each customer and transaction. Some workflows can return rapid credit decisions, while transactions requiring verification may take longer depending on complexity. This flexibility allows sellers to compete effectively for larger orders while maintaining cash flow health through advances on approved invoices.

Automatic transaction recording syncs directly to accounting software linked to original invoices, while embedded checkout displays net terms options naturally in existing purchase flows.

Resolve Pay advances up to 90% of approved invoice value within 24 hours of invoice approval. The actual timing depends on the specific transaction, buyer approval status, invoice validity, and program terms. Some workflows can process rapidly, while others requiring additional verification may take longer depending on transaction complexity. This advance structure helps businesses maintain healthy cash flow while offering competitive net terms to customers, eliminating the typical 30-90 day wait for customer payment.
