CSG Forte Recovery Solutions

Nonsufficient funds (NSF) are a common cause of missed payments. Attempts to recover those funds using conventional methods—such as repeated phone calls—often fail.

That’s where a re-presentment and recovery solution comes in. CSG Forte Direct Recovery helps you enhance your cash flow by:

  • Automatically queuing returned NSF payments for re-presentment.
  • Optimizing re-presentment by automatically reattempting payment at strategic times rather than at random.
  • Delivering 100% of the value of recovered payments.
  • Reducing service disruptions due to returned payments.

Plus, when the solution successfully recovers a payment, your company will gain a share of the revenue from the NSF fee. Our solution helped a large enterprise organization recover $78 million in 2023.
