CTT and PHC boost e-commerce for small businesses in Portugal.

CTT – Correios de Portugal and PHC Software have established a partnership to integrate CTT's online stores with PHC GO software, allowing small business owners to have a macro view of their business and control over all its areas.

This integration with PHC GO allows you to synchronize all items, customers, and actions of the online store, automatically create invoices after order payment, and ensure daily data backups.

According to Rogério Canhoto, Chief Business Officer of PHC Software, “ we are very proud of this partnership, established at a time of unprecedented digital transformation in the area of ​​online commerce, which will help any micro or small business – 99,3% of the business fabric in Portugal – to advance and improve their business. PHC GO aims to democratize access for small businesses to management tools, prepared to adapt to the needs of each business – and we feel that this objective is even more evident with this partnership .”

The partnership with the CTT e-commerce platform also allows for faster decision-making and streamlines the company's invoicing process, displaying shipping costs and commercial discounts on invoices and facilitating the customer's onboarding process in the online store at the time of invoice creation. Customers will also benefit from preferential conditions offered by CTT and PHC when joining both platforms.

According to João Ventura Sousa, executive director of CTT, “ we enthusiastically embrace this partnership with PHC Software, at a time when e-commerce is an increasingly present reality in the lives of the Portuguese. The pandemic has further accelerated e-commerce, motivating SMEs to seek new solutions for the growth of their businesses, and we at CTT have a complete offering that allows us to help all businesses in all processes, regardless of their size .”

 

PHC GO

PHC GO's main advantages include efficiency (as it is quick to use and learn), time savings (managing all areas of the company and automating routine tasks with integrated artificial intelligence and fintech), and compliance with tax regulations (as it ensures compliance with the directives of the Tax Authority).

With a strong focus on convenience, the software offers all the benefits of the cloud and SaaS world: available 24/7, secure (advanced firewall, monitoring and distributed backups), with reduced costs (shared infrastructure, no initial investment and monthly or annual payments) and always up-to-date (regular updates with constant new features and new tax rules – any legal change will update the solution).
