Who's behind PaidLate, and how it works
PaidLate reads how any UK company actually pays its suppliers — from the company's own statutory filings, free and without a sign-up. Here's who builds it, and exactly where the numbers come from.
Who we are
PaidLate is a product of YORXEN LTD — a UK lead-generation company, built compliance-first (company no. 17303256 · ICO registration ZC183869 · registered in England & Wales).
Where the numbers come from
Every figure on PaidLate is a company's own official record. We don't score, guess or add opinion to it — we read the public registers, do the arithmetic, and put it in plain English. The sources:
- Payment Practices Reporting — the gov.uk service where larger UK companies must, by law, file how quickly they actually pay suppliers. The board signs it off. This is where the average days-to-pay, the terms and the qualitative notes come from.
- Companies House — the public register: status, incorporation, registered office, SIC, accounts due dates and the count of outstanding charges.
- The Gazette — the official public record of insolvency events, used for watchlist alerts.
We compute the derived figures — average days to pay, the trend across periods, the position versus sector peers, and an illustrative working-capital effect — entirely from those filed numbers. The dataset is rebuilt weekly. All of it is used under the Open Government Licence v3.0.
Where we sit, and where we don't
We are an information tool, not a credit reference agency. The figures are the companies' own filed data, not a credit score, rating or risk grade — and we use no credit-agency data.
We are not a lender, broker or adviser. Nothing here is financial or legal advice. Where a business wants to act on a cash-flow gap, YORXEN can introduce it to a broker — a clean hand-off, and only if the business asks.
The numbers are theirs; the plain-English read is ours. Every report links back to the original filing so you can check it yourself.
