Problem 1 · Harvest terms

Payment depends on the harvest

Seeds, fertiliser and crop protection are sold at the start of the season, and farmers pay from harvest income. You carry the receivable for the months in between, and a bad season pushes your whole payment plan back.

Solution

  • Your dealer or the farmer chooses Dealer Financing at checkout; once the loan is disbursed, the amount goes straight to your company
  • Fibabanka agricultural credit of up to TRY 2 million for local farmers
  • Terms of up to 18 months with Fibabanka; you choose the term to match the harvest
  • Your company never becomes the dealer’s or farmer’s debtor or guarantor; the bank makes the credit decision
  • Cost sharing: cover part or all of the cost, with no separate payment

Illustrative example
The usual way
  1. The dealer signs a promissory note due after harvest
  2. You finance the order for eight months
  3. If the harvest is poor, the note is rolled over
With Tahsildar
  1. The dealer chooses to pay with financing at checkout · Fibabanka
  2. Once the loan is disbursed, the amount lands in your account
  3. The term sits between the dealer and the bank; you are not a guarantor

The harvest no longer shifts your payments. The amount is in your account on the day the loan is disbursed.

Harvest terms · Agricultural cards

Accept agricultural cards

Agricultural cards are a Turkey-specific card type: farmers buy inputs with a card from their bank and repay the bank in line with the harvest. Tahsildar integrates with banks’ agricultural POS, so agricultural card payments arrive alongside the rest of your payments.

Solution

  • Integrated with banks’ agricultural POS; agricultural POS from payment institutions are available too
  • Agricultural POS runs as a virtual POS: send a payment link by SMS or QR code and the farmer pays by agricultural card from their phone
  • Agricultural card payments show up in the same panel as your other payments and sync to your ERP
  • Deferral period, fees and settlement terms are set by the card-issuing bank and the POS

Card names belong to the issuing banks. Card and deferral terms are set by the banks.

Problem 2 · Field

Getting paid in the field, the village and the dealer counter

Sales to farmers often happen in the field, in the village or at the dealer’s counter. Field reps come back with cash and cheques, and payments only show up once they are written into a ledger or spreadsheet in the evening.

Solution

  • Assign a Physical POS to your field rep, who takes card payments in the field independently of the dealer
  • Single-payment sales land on your company card the next day at 0% fee
  • Payment links reach remote farmers by SMS or QR code; they pay by credit card or agricultural card
  • See which POS is with which rep and how much came in from each point on one screen
  • Automatic reminders go out to farmers before the due date

The usual way
  1. The rep collects cash and cheques
  2. Payments are written into a ledger in the evening
  3. Who paid only becomes clear in accounting the next day
With Tahsildar
  1. Farmers pay by card on the rep’s POS
  2. Remote farmers receive a payment link by SMS
  3. All payments show on one screen

Field payments are on record. Less cash to carry, fewer cheques to pick up.

Problem 3 · Dealer network

The parent company, dealer and farmer chain

In agriculture, sales often move through a parent company, dealer and farmer chain. The dealer collects from farmers and pays you separately; the receivable building up in the middle only shows when the dealer fails to pay.

Solution

  • Dealers and sub-dealers take payments from farmers and pay you from the same screen
  • Payments can go to the dealer’s IBAN, or come straight to you and post to the dealer’s account as a credit
  • Set a separate payment set-up and credit limit for each dealer
  • In the parent company, dealer and sub-dealer chain, everyone sees their own reports and you see the whole network
  • Dealers log in on your own domain and see your brand
ServiceYour dedicated account manager sets up new dealers and users for you.

The usual way
  1. The dealer collects cash and cheques from farmers
  2. Your payment arrives by bank transfer at month-end
  3. The dealer’s open receivables are invisible to you
With Tahsildar
  1. Farmers pay by card from the dealer’s screen
  2. The payment comes to you and posts to the dealer’s account as a credit
  3. Dealer and farmer payments in the same report

The whole chain is visible. You see which dealer collected from which farmer.

Problem 4 · Season orders

Orders pile up at the start of the season

In planting and spring seasons, orders for seeds, fertiliser and crop protection pile into a few weeks. Orders are taken by phone, and dealer-specific prices and warehouse stock are checked one by one.

Solution

  • Dealers order from your private B2B storefront using price lists specific to their dealer group
  • Stock by warehouse; units of measure and unit conversion (sack, case, litre)
  • Volume target discounts, category and brand discounts
  • The basket closes with payment: card in instalments, bank transfer (EFT and havale), Dealer Financing or on account
  • Your field team enters sales rep orders and sub-dealers place their own
ServiceOur team uploads your products, price lists and settings during onboarding.

Illustrative example
The usual way
  1. The dealer calls to ask about price and stock
  2. The order is noted and the warehouse called separately
  3. Payment is left until the end of the season
With Tahsildar
  1. The dealer builds the basket with their own price list and warehouse stock
  2. Volume target discounts apply in the basket
  3. Pays by card or financing; the order syncs to the ERP

Peak season doesn’t jam the phones. Orders and payments sync to your ERP.

Problem 5 · Reconciliation

Cheques, transfers, cards: scattered payments

Farmers and dealers pay by cheque, bank transfer, card and financing, spread across different banks. Working out which payment belongs to which customer account becomes accounting’s longest job at the end of the season.

Solution

  • Dealers pay from their own screen, so the payer is known; the payment posts to their customer account in your ERP
  • Payments, POS transactions, refunds and voids post to the right customer account
  • Customer master data, balances, open items and invoices sync from your ERP to Tahsildar
  • Bi-directional sync with SAP and Turkey’s leading ERPs (Logo, Mikro, Nebim); no middleware
  • Sync timing is set in the panel and every sync is logged
End-of-season reconciliation
230 accounts · 4 acquirers
Illustrative example
The usual way
  1. Each bank statement is downloaded separately
  2. The customer is found from the description and the payment posted by hand
  3. Dealer reconciliation is done by phone
With Tahsildar
  1. Every payment posts to the dealer’s customer account in the ERP
  2. Refunds and voids post to the right account too
  3. A failed sync shows up with its reason

Less double entry, an ERP that stays current. End-of-season reconciliation gets shorter.

Problem 6 · Dealer riskComing soon

The effect of a bad season on dealers is noticed late

Drought, frost or falling prices hit the farmer’s ability to pay first, then the dealer’s. A dealer’s purchases and payment pattern start changing months before, but the problem is often noticed only when a payment is late.

Solution

  • Commercial Scoring: your whole dealer network monitored continuously, with deterioration visible weeks before a late payment
  • Improving and deteriorating dealers listed separately; a notification when a grade changes
  • Track by region, sales rep and dealer group
  • DBS Reporting: DBS credit limits, invoices and maturities across all banks in one panel
  • No paperwork from dealers, no extra integration

Both products are in development. Commercial Scoring is for companies that run dealer payments on Tahsildar; DBS Reporting is reporting only.

Dealer scores

Illustrative example
The usual way
  1. A dealer’s purchases fall without anyone noticing
  2. Payment is late at the end of the season
  3. Credit terms change only after the late payment
With Tahsildar
  1. A dealer with weakening purchase continuity is flagged
  2. A notification when the grade changes
  3. Terms are reviewed before any late payment

See risk before the season ends. Decide before a payment is late.

Tahsildar syncs bi-directionally with SAP and Turkey’s leading ERPs (Logo, Mikro, Nebim), as well as other widely used ERPs.
