Debtor days

The average number of days it takes customers to pay your invoices.

Debtor days (or DSO) measures how long, on average, your money sits unpaid after you invoice. The lower the number, the faster you’re paid and the healthier your cash flow. Clear terms, fast invoicing and automatic reminders all pull it down.
