Why Dues Go Unpaid (And Stay That Way)

Most systems don’t follow up fast enough, personalise enough, or escalate smartly - here’s what’s missing.

Delayed or Missed Payment Follow-Ups

Spreadsheets and manual reminders are easy to forget; letting small dues snowball. Over time, one missed nudge can turn into multiple missed payments, hurting cash flow.

Generic Messaging With No Context

Every tenant receives the same email regardless of context, causing disengagement and message fatigue. Without personalisation, reminders feel robotic and are often ignored.

Chasing Low-Value Dues Manually

Time and resources are wasted on small payments that could be resolved with automation. Manual chasing leaves teams overworked while higher-value tasks get neglected.

Limited Channel Flexibility in Communication

Your residents may ignore emails but respond instantly to calls yet most teams can’t switch channel strategies on the fly. This creates gaps and fragmentation where payments slip through.

No Real-Time Visibility into Recovery

Teams have no real-time insight into who was messaged, how many times, and where recovery stands. This leads to scattered efforts, duplicated work, and inconsistent follow-ups.

Inconsistent Escalation & Resolution

Without a clear escalation path, overdue cases either stall or bounce between departments. The lack of structured workflows delays resolution and frustrates both staff and tenants.

Introducing WorkFlo: Campaigns That Collect Without Conflict

VerbaFlo’s WorkFlo lets you build intelligent, automated campaigns that recover payments with speed, consistency, and empathy across every channel.

Drag-and-Drop Campaign Builder

Design recovery campaigns in minutes, map out every message, timing, and channel with an intuitive visual flow. Launch with templates, channel logic, and real-time performance tracking for clear results.

Channel-Agnostic Messaging

Send nudges across WhatsApp, email, SMS automatically if a tenant doesn’t respond on one. Seamlessly switch channels without losing context or conversation history. Ensure every message reaches the tenant on the medium they prefer.

Customisable Tone & Content

Use warm, gentle tones for first reminders and firm but respectful follow-ups for older dues. Every message can be tailored by amount due, time overdue, or tenant type.

Real-Time Tracking & Reporting

Track open rates, click-throughs, replies, and payments in a single dashboard. Get full visibility into campaign effectiveness and tenant engagement.

Escalation Rules Built In

Set clear next steps when a payment isn’t made such as human handoff, additional reminders, or holding further communication. It’s all automated.

GDPR-Compliant & Respectful

WorkFlo ensures all communication complies with data regulations, message frequency caps, and opt-out preferences so you can collect responsibly.

VerbaFlo’s Core Capabilities for Scalable Acquisition

These features enable real-time engagement, personalised qualification, and seamless escalation, eliminating gaps in the acquisition journey and maximising conversion from every enquiry.

Multi-Lingual Conversations

VerbaFlo speaks the language your residents know best. With support for multiple languages across chat, voice, WhatsApp, and email, every reminder feels local, human, and easy to act on; no confusion & no missed payments.

Versatile & Context-Aware AI

Debt collection is rarely the only concern. VerbaFlo’s AI understands context, whether it’s a query about rent, renewals, or maintenance; it continues payment follow-ups in parallel.

Smart Routing

Not every overdue case can be solved with reminders. VerbaFlo automatically routes exceptions; such as disputes & repeated delays to the right team member. This ensures escalation happens at the right time.

Automatic Scheduling & Triggers

With API integrations, VerbaFlo listens to your systems in real time. The moment a due date is crossed or a condition is met, it triggers the right workflow; whether that’s a first reminder, a gentle nudge, or an escalation. No manual effort needed.

Seamless CRM Synchronisation

All communication data flows directly into your CRM. Every reminder, escalation, or response is logged, giving your team complete visibility and allowing them to take the next steps without chasing scattered records.

Customisable Use Cases

Every business has its own process. VerbaFlo lets you build debt collection workflows from scratch. From payment schedules to escalation rules, everything can be customised to match your operational needs.

From the very first conversation, VerbaFlo stood out. They really took the time to understand what we needed and never tried to push a one-size-fits-all solution. The sales process was refreshingly straightforward—no hard sell, just a genuine interest in building something that worked for us. Since then, they’ve been incredibly responsive, collaborative, and open to feedback at every stage. At Unilife, we’ve always said we’d only launch AI solutions if they genuinely improve the student experience, and VerbaFlo have helped us do exactly that. The end product strikes the right tone and adds real value—we’re absolutely delighted with it.
