Commercial Credit Check
Through a special
partnership with Myrs Credit Advisors,
ASA members get actual payment information analysis on accounts of
all sizes, including the small retail establishment. Myrs has information
on more than 90% of the retail accounts submitted for rating. ASA members
receive special rates starting as low as $4 to get a rating on an account.
Myrs is positioning itself to provide these services to sportfishing
companies by forming sub-alliances with vendor credit departments throughout
the industry. Myrs can also assist with A/R collections. To aid the
industry further, Myrs works with retail establishments to facilitate
accurate reporting—giving
the retailer the ability to notate the file in the case of vendor/retailer
dispute. Myrs can also help retailers establish credit with vendors
or report a change of ownership, new capital infusion, or any other
type of transaction or filing that would be of importance to the credit
accuracy of the business.
