Connect orders, returns and payments for each case

Your shop's open-item list is a starting point, not a complete claim file. Keep the order number, contracting party, invoice number and delivery record together. Where billing and shipping addresses differ, establish who entered into the contract. A parcel accepted at an address does not establish that by itself.

Reconcile returns, refunds, payment-provider entries and credit notes before handover. An announced return, a declared withdrawal and goods actually returned are different facts. Applicable consumer rights must be considered; an unpaid invoice does not make a withdrawal irrelevant.

What does batch processing require?

Each record needs the same essential information as an individual case. Define a unique case ID, current principal, basis for the due date and default, and a correction process. A technical import does not establish the validity of every claim. The terms require the relevant confirmations for each submitted case.

Make objections visible first

A delivery dispute, identity misuse or missing refund must not disappear behind a generic “unpaid” label. Record the specific objection and evidence. Separate disputed cases from regular undisputed instructions. New payments and return credits still need to be reported after handover.

Documents ready? Here is the next step.

Check the claim and balance, record objections and identify the relevant jurisdiction. Acceptance and cooperation follow our terms.

Every online shop knows this

The goods are out. The money does not come back.

In online retail it is rarely the one big loss. It is the many small amounts that look too small to pursue on their own and, taken together, slow your growth. If your customer is abroad, a second hurdle is added: a different legal situation and different ways of serving documents. The incaseof.law study on tied-up capital shows how much is left lying around: 194.9 billion euros in the claims of Austrian companies, evaluated across 149,916 limited companies, as of 2026.

Many small amounts, no time for them

Every single invoice purchase looks too small for a reminder of its own. Together they are the turnover your shop is missing at the end of the month.

Delivered, but never paid

The return is announced and never arrives, the goods stay with the customer, and nobody answers your payment reminder.

Chargeback instead of payment

The amount is charged back although the parcel was delivered. The invoice stays open, and the work stays with you.

In brief

How does debt collection work for online shops?

Multiple unpaid purchases need a clear process. Connect each order to delivery, returns and payments. Due, undisputed claims with documented default can be handed over digitally under the acceptance requirements.

Basis: acceptance requirements and services under the terms.

How it works

How the bulk handover works

In three steps from hundreds of unpaid invoice purchases to the payout. You hand over in bulk, incaseof.law takes over the rest. See how the handover of your claims works in detail.

1

Upload the invoice purchases

Upload your unpaid invoice purchases as a list or connect your shop and your accounting. Hundreds of items in one step, without single entries.

In about 3 minutes
2

We enforce

We initially handle the accepted instruction out of court. Court proceedings, required representation and additional costs need separate clarification.

Out of court first
3

Payout to your account

Received payments are settled in the agreed order. Follow the case in the customer portal. Understand partial payments and payouts.

Paid out in full

A case from online retail

340 unpaid invoice purchases. This is how the bulk file runs through.

After the Christmas season 340 invoice purchases stay open, 180 euros on average, many of them from consumers. You hand over the list in one step, the way you submit any unpaid claim, and incaseof.law enforces it factually and with legal certainty.

  • One bulk list instead of 340 single cases. You upload, incaseof.law takes over from the first demand.
  • A factual tone towards consumers, with an instalment solution instead of escalation.
  • No success commission on recovered principal. Conditions and cost consequences under the terms apply.

What it costs

What does debt collection cost online shops?

If fully recovered, principal is paid out without a success commission. Interest and collection costs remunerate the service under the terms. Court, legal and transmission costs, and obligations on direct payments or cancellation, need separate consideration. Payment or full reimbursement is not guaranteed. Read the terms.

What our clients say

From conflicting goals to seamless cooperation.

After seeing the incaseof.law demo, I immediately cancelled the contract with our previous debt collection provider. We were able to settle the first two five-figure claims within a few days. After that we connected to incaseof.law directly via REST API.

I am incredibly grateful to InCase of Law. The whole process was extremely simple and worked entirely without any direct communication effort. I only uploaded my invoice, and within the first hour the first reminder had already gone out. What had cost me over a month of frustration, chasing and unanswered messages was resolved by InCase of Law within one day: my entire principal claim was paid the very next day. I can recommend the service without reservation and will definitely use it again for future outstanding claims. Many thanks for the fast and professional support!
