In addition, Collection Works users can now take advantage of Payscout’s 360° Fee-Free Payments program, the only fully compliant Convenience Fee solution available to the ARM industry which complies with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), varying State Laws, and Card-Brand Rules.

“We are thrilled to bolster our partnership with Collection Works Software Solutions,” says Manpreet Singh, President and Co-Founder of Payscout. “Today’s economic environment has been difficult for businesses in the collections and ARM space. For those in search of secure, efficient, and compliant solutions that reduce costs and increase revenue, this partnership brings together 40+ years of leadership to provide industry-leading payment and collection solutions that allow businesses to reach their full potential.”
