Caruna has introduced electronic payment reminders
If your invoice remains unpaid after the due date, you will receive a payment reminder in the same channel to which the original invoice was sent. An electronic payment reminder is a quick and effortless way to react to an unpaid invoice. At the same time, Caruna will reduce the amount of paper mail and transfer letters to more environmentally friendly electronic channels.
