How the BT Early Payment Programme works

BT has partnered with C2FO to offer eligible suppliers the opportunity to get paid faster. Once your invoice is approved by BT, it will appear on the C2FO platform. You then choose a discount rate that works for you. If BT accepts your offer, your payment is accelerated - often within just a few days.
