Business Debt Settlement

If your company is overwhelmed by debt and struggling to keep up with payments, Business Debt Settlement could be the smart alternative to bankruptcy or endless interest payments. This service is designed to negotiate directly with your business creditors to reduce the total amount owed — helping you regain financial control and focus on growth.

What Is Business Debt Settlement?

Debt settlement is a process where a third-party negotiator works with your creditors to accept a reduced lump-sum payment — typically less than what you actually owe — as full and final settlement of the debt.

Unlike consolidation, which restructures the debt, or bankruptcy, which can damage your business reputation & credit long-term, settlement aims to close out your debt for less, without going through the courts.

  • Reduce collection costs
  • Recover part of the debt quickly
  • Avoid potential write-offs or bankruptcy losses

Debt Management Vs. Debt Consolidation Vs. Debt Settlement

Option Total Cost Credit Impact Time to Resolve Risk of Legal Action
Debt Settlement Lower Moderate Fast ( 6–24 months) Medium
Debt Consolidation Higher Low Long (3–5 years) Low
Bankruptcy Varies Severe Long (years) High

How Much Can You Save?

Savings vary based on debt type, creditor, and financial situation, but many businesses settle for 40%–60% of the total debt.

Example
If you owe $100,000, you may settle for $45,000–$60,000 — a potential savings of up to $55,000.



Will Debt Settlement Affect Your Business Credit Score?

Yes, but often less than bankruptcy or charge-offs. Some creditors may report settled accounts as “Paid – Settled” or “Settled in Full.” While this can impact your score, it’s temporary and recoverable especially once you’re debt-free and rebuilding.
