Why Himilco
Who it is for
Built for the people who make sure the money comes in.
In every business, one person is responsible for getting paid. That is who we are here for.
Founders and managing directors
You chase payments yourself, often in the evening, because nobody else will. And every unpaid invoice delays a hire or an investment.
Accounting managers
You watch the aged debtors report get worse without the time or the leverage to do anything about it.
Office managers
Chasing unpaid invoices landed on your desk without you asking for it, on top of everything else.
Heads of sales
A sale only really exists once it is paid. Until then, your salesperson's commission is on hold.
What has put you off before
Used a debt collection agency before? Then you know how it goes.
Fees taken before the first call is even made. Promises over the phone, then months of silence. Sometimes even money collected that never reaches you. In the end, your invoice is still unpaid. But you have paid.
With a traditional agency
- ✕ Money collected on your behalf, then never paid out
- ✕ Chasing your provider as much as your debtor
- ✕ No real collection work ever started
- ✕ Set-up fees charged before any work is done
- ✕ A monthly subscription, whether the case succeeds or not
- ✕ Methods that damage the business relationship for good
With Himilco
- ✓ Funds paid out on the 25th of the month following collection, without exception
- ✓ Every reminder and every reply recorded, available at any time
- ✓ A first reminder within 4 days (median), logged in your client portal

- ✓ No subscription: you hand over your claims when you decide to
- ✓ Firm on the amount, courteous in manner: your client can stay your client
Integrations
Works with the tools you already use.
Connect your invoicing or payment tool: your unpaid invoices come through automatically, and one click starts the collection.
Stripe and Qonto are available today. Other integrations are being rolled out, and we build custom connections to suit each client's needs.
The team
You will always know who is calling your client.
No call centre. Two people, in Paris, who handle every case personally and pick up when you call.
Tahar Ben Hamad
President & CTO
He designs the platform and runs collections. Every case is assessed before we take it on: you know exactly what can be recovered and what cannot.
Alain Soltesz
Sales Director
He is your contact from the first conversation to the signing of the mandate, and then supports you as your cases progress.
