Credit Limit Calculation
Static credit limits leave money on the table or create excessive risk. Fiskil calculates optimal credit limits dynamically based on real-time financial behavior and cash flow.
Traditional credit limits don't reflect current financial capacity, leading to either foregone revenue or excessive risk.
Conservative limits leave revenue on the table
Aggressive limits lead to defaults and write-offs
Limits don't adjust with changing financial circumstances
No differentiation based on actual affordability
Good customers reach limits while risky customers overextend
