The second financing solution offered under cRediCart is in association with India’s first-of-its-kind LC Discounting website, LC Bidding. Recordent will market LC Discounting feature that allows businesses that transact based on underlying LCs, to discount these LCs at the best rates, through price-finding across 25+ network of Banks and NBFCs. Businesses can save up to 2% on discount rates with this deal. LC Bidding also provides document processing assistance. This type of financing does not create limits on the applicant and is one of the cheapest modes of financing.
