Export Letters of Credit

Create, present and manage all documentation required for an Export Letter of Credit.

Letters of Credit provide a valuable way to reduce risk, but they have strict and complex document requirements and are highly susceptible to errors. An estimated 70% of all Letters of Credit submitted to banks for payment are initially rejected due to incorrectly issued documentation. This rejection can lead to payment delays, additional fees, and even nonpayment of the drawing.

TradeBeam offers both on-demand software for managing the documentation lifecycle of Export Letters of Credit, as well as a managed service for Export Letter of Credit document preparation, submission and tracking.
