Award-winning agency in charge of promoting ‘Request to Pay’ (RtP) as the go-to billing & payment method, Bluechain, a tech-startup business that offers companies a secure, real-time, two-way communication channel that transforms the traditional receivables process, has appointed marketing and communications consultancy, Hard Numbers as their PR agency of record.
This exclusive relationship means that Hard Numbers will oversee PR for the company, with a focus on driving earned media coverage for the fast-growing fintech.
Bluechain is on a mission to make the billing and payment process frictionless by providing a better experience for businesses and their customers through new Request to Pay (RtP) technology. Their technology enables customers to take control over how they pay, when and with what whilst giving businesses real time insights into the status of a bill or invoice.
Bluechain is pioneering the payments industry with their insightful perspective that affirms that billing that accommodates the payer, supports customer engagement as it provides the opportunity and flexibility for them to pay within terms but on their own schedules.
Hard Numbers will help Bluechain promote RtP and its technology to Enterprise businesses with significant SME, mid-market, and consumer customer bases. Launched in June 2020, Hard Numbers is a performance-driven agency with a significant focus on achieving meaningful results and creating campaigns that drive pipeline, sales, and company growth.
Tim Annis, UK Managing Director of Bluechain, said:
“During these difficult times we know that our capabilities, giving better visibility and control, can relieve some of the pressures that come with managing bills during the growing cost of living crisis. It is equally as hard for businesses to navigate the current economic climate and we believe that they shouldn’t have to work so hard to get paid on time. The uncertainty around when a bill is going to be paid hinders a business’ ability to operate efficiently and increases costs. We are focused on working with Hard Numbers to elevate our company profile even further and to promote the impactful applications of our technology.’”
Darryl Sparey, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Hard Numbers, said:
“Bluechain’s ‘Request to Pay’ technology is a hugely timely development in the UK market, with a looming cost of living crisis and consumers concerned about how they will manage their bills. Bluechain’’s ‘Request to Pay’ system solves the problems of many longstanding issues between customers who want to pay, but have short-term cash-flow challenges, and businesses looking to effectively plan and manage their revenues. I really believe in the utility of this service and I’m excited about sharing the benefits of this with as many businesses as we can!”
