Provisional Credit Information

What are the benefits of provisional credit?

Clients receive daily credit for their cash deposits without ever having to go to the bank. This saves time, money, and reduces the risk of robbery outside the store and theft inside of it. 

What are the benefits of provisional credit in a high-interest-rate environment?

In a high-interest rate environment, the importance of daily cash deposits through provisional credit is extensive. Clients can put their deposits to work by gaining a higher interest rate for higher deposit balances and by paying down, or not using commercial lines of credit for day-to-day business needs.
