Mentoring and exchanging experiences were already important. Today, in the face of an unprecedented crisis, they have become indispensable. With this in mind, X-Pay Gestão expanded its portfolio with a new service: Financial Engineering. To support the new service model, the team is in a new home, with a large office in Alphaville Campinas, SP.
 
 According to data provided by the Ministry of Economy, 846,000 new companies were opened throughout Brazil in the first quarter of 2020. This impressive number represents a growth of 14% when compared to the last quarter of 2019. In addition, it represents an increase of 8.6% compared to the same period last year.
 
  Although the numbers were positive, the arrival of COVID-19 changed the course of all companies, regardless of size. On the other hand, solution providers that support small and medium-sized companies understood that now was the time to expand.
 
 This was the case of X-Pay Gestão de Pagamentos, which already has the WLX   Supply Chain solution that simplifies the supply chain cycle, and has expanded its portfolio. “Until now, all of our work was focused on managing receipts and payments for the entire supply chain. This was done in a way that the sales value was promptly delivered - and divided - among retailers, distributors and manufacturers, with direct credit to each one’s digital account”, explains Oderli Feriani, founding partner of X-Pay.
 
 In general, it can be said that X-Pay Management offers a reduction in financial costs for the supply chain from end to end, without having to wait for the invoicing time. “Before, it was necessary to wait between 14 and 28 days for receipt. This reality changes with our arrival”, he adds.
 
Leveraging

 Thinking, once again, about the ease of processes, the new X-Pay Gestão service can be called mentoring. “Many companies need to recover financially due to the pandemic. We will work together and join forces to make these projects take off”, he points out.
 
 By combining financial assets and the possibility of allocating and investing resources, X-Pay Gestão promises to go further with its Financial Engineering. “We are not just talking about financial support, with contributions, but also a series of other steps that can be taken together, focusing on structure and planning. A company that is still fragile and in its early stages can be heavily impacted by this”, says Feriani.
 
 In general, it can be said that X-Pay Gestão allows Small and Medium-sized companies to come together in a consortium to generate the necessary capital. In other words: the path to raising funds is open so that they can participate in the corporation.

 As an incisive complement, there is mentoring. “We have a pool of entrepreneurs who want to and can encourage other entrepreneurs, since they have already gone through similar or even worse financial problems. This exchange of experiences can help companies move from where they are and move towards success,” he says.
 
New home

 Based on its mission to support entrepreneurs, X-Pay Gestão sought new horizons and clients, thus gaining a new client who was delighted with the services provided, who is now also part of the group.
 
 “We received support from a client who was delighted with our services. With that, we went from a 50m2
coworking space to a headquarters that covers an entire floor, with more than 300m2,” explains Oderli.

 The new office, located in Alphaville Campinas, gives X-Pay Gestão space to continue supporting and driving new businesses.
