Next-Day Payouts: Why It Matters More Than Your Rate

1 Dec 2025 · 6 min read

Most business owners obsess over rate. The real cash-flow killer is slow payouts, here's why next-day matters.

Saving 0.2% on a £20,000/month turnover is £40/month. Getting your money 2 days faster, every single day, is a working-capital boost worth thousands.

The maths

If you take £700/day on average, two extra days of float is £1,400 working in your business instead of someone else's.

Why some providers are slow

Funds sit in a holding account where the provider earns interest. The longer they hold, the more they earn.

Next-day, 7 days a week

Our Shift4 partner programme pays out next day including weekends.
