BlueTape is a payments and financing platform built for the construction industry. It gives material suppliers, manufacturers, dealers and contractors the tools larger firms take for granted - trade credit, net terms up to 120 days, buy-now-pay-later for building materials, automated accounts receivable, factoring, early-payment programs and lines of credit. The goal is simple: help small and midsize construction businesses get paid faster, sell more, and finance the materials they need without the paperwork and cash-flow crunch that has long defined the trade.
