‘Payment’ might not be the first thing that springs to mind when you think ‘scrap metal’. But recycling targets and a sustainability push have driven demand in the industry, along with pressure from buyers and sellers for immediate payment!

There is an urgent need for an easier, quicker, and more efficient way to issue funds 24/7 for modern scrap metal recyclers that service suppliers and clients. 

This is especially important if your suppliers don’t have access to traditional bank accounts.

A win-win solution for suppliers and customers

Bread4Scrap is a complete package for the scrap metal industry. It’s a modern, compliant, and efficient payment method that benefits buyers and sellers of scrap metal and its operations. 

In this article, we unpack the features, benefits, and workings of Bread4Scrap, including:

  • Multiple payment options for fast and effective payment
  • Fully compliant with government regulations 
  • Integrates with management platforms like FRED5
  • Benefits for scrap metal roles from MDs to yard managers
  • Clear and simple pricing

Multiple payment methods for convenience and flexibility 

Bread4Scrap offers one straightforward platform that delivers smooth and efficient payments for your suppliers and customers. 

There are two easy options for fast, secure payments: 

  1. Load funds to a prepaid Mastercard that can be used by customers to withdraw cash from ATMs or spend globally online/instore. Pre-paid cards can be delivered to scrap metal sites fast, usually within just two days. The Bread4Scrap App is now available in the Apple Pay and Google Play store.
  1. Faster payments to make direct transfers into customer’s and suppliers’ bank accounts. These payments can be made within minutes

Take advantage of lower transaction costs and substantial savings compared to traditional bank charges. Cheques involve manual processes that are time-consuming and prone to errors, whilst BACS payments take three days to process, leading to customer complaints.

These methods also reduce the risk of holding larger amounts of cash on-site.

Fully compliant with government regulations 

Bread4Scrap fully complies with government regulations and is delivered through a secure management portal for improved payment visibility. 

This means a modern payment method, greater security and efficiency and full regulatory compliance.

Seamless integration with management platforms

Bread4Scrap can seamlessly integrate with industry-standard management platforms, such as FRED5, the UK’s leading and most widely adopted Recycling Management software. There is no need for complex workarounds for systems you already have in place.
