What our clients think!

I would like to mention the extra ordinary experience that I have had with working with you Pieter and the entire team of the X QUOTIENT.

Firstly, my company which is Maricab Construction and Logistics would not been where it is as a business today without the help and the experience of X QUOTIENT, from our first engagement when I was helped with the purchase order my company received. At that stage my business had no funds to process the required order. That was in 2018 when we started to engage and to have business relationship, which till today is even stronger based on mutual trust, intergrity and honesty.

On this first engagement the help and the assistance I got was so amazing in the fact that I was helped not only with the funds but with the whole process until the final payment into my business account was paid, Pieter and the team were involved with making sure that I even got the best deal for the order making sure they advised on where to get the reasonable prices and to follow through on the delivery of the items required.

They have always made communication to be easy and they have been upfront with all the requirement and the charges or fees that they charge and today I still feel that they are reasonable and inclusive of the service they offer to their clients.

My company has had a number of orders which they helped with since 2018 till to date and I still will continue to grow with X QUOTIENT as a business. I am proud to share my experience about X QUOTIENT with my business associates and will continue to recommend X QUOTIENT to anyone the requires funding for business purposes. The milestone I have achieved with them is highly appreciated and will continue doing business with X QUOTIENT.

Bongani Nkosi | Director | Maricab Construction and Logistics Pty. Ltd.

Vodasol is a small company building fibre networks for various Fibre Network Operators. This is a very expensive capital outlay and because invoices are often paid only 30 days after statement, cash flow becomes an issue.

We were referred to X Quotient, and what an amazing difference they made in our business. Pieter visited our clients, completed all required documentation and vetting in really quick time, in order to help us to get our cash flow back on track.

Pieter clearly understands the urgency of such transactions and we often felt that we were his most important clients, although, compared to other businesses, our transactions are relatively small. Pieter is always available, willing to listen and make a plan to assist us. We are more than happy to refer him to other companies.

My name is Luzuko Khanyisa Mguda, a director of New Eagle Screen Print(Pty)Ltdt/a Eagle Screen Print.

We approached X Quotient represented Mr Pieter Potgieter for financial assistance with regards to our Purchase Order for printing of various decals in or during August 2021, We completed the paper relating to the execution of the order after we sent all quotations for the material and printing consumables.

X Quotient rendered quotation to ESP and upon acceptance of the quotation for the funding and purchasing of the material, Pieter flew down to Cape Town to see our Suppliers, the end of the product we were manufacturing and as well the physical inspection of our plant, when he satisfied, he flew back to Pretoria and upon his arrival, he transferred the payments that were due to be paid to our suppliers, and when that payment effected that created breathtaking environment to our business. We carried out with our order and with much efficiency.

I will recommend X Quotient to anybody that requires Purchase Order funding as I will never look around for any other company to my financing model that is so transparent as X Quotient.

Lastly, we created a joint banking account through SASFIN wherein we updated our CSD profile and loaded the new banking details and the bank account that we opened we all have access to it and payment X Quotient deducted its fee that was agreed upon and the balance is left in your account for you to deal with it as you please.

In conclusion, Pieter is a kind man ,soft ,very easy to work with and very efficient .I am truly grateful to X Quotient and we are self-sufficient and have sound financial cash flow. Should there be anything that I might have omitted, please feel free to add it in.

How The X Quotient helped us: they basically took over the financing of our project in a very professional manner. Held our hand even beyond financing.
The effect it had on our business was way more than being a financier but also of helping our business pull through a very difficult time as this was not an easy transaction to finance even with your traditional banks.
I found dealing with the company very easy and the manner in which they were open to accommodate us. They gave us hope where we thought all was lost.
In terms of service I think they are on a different level. The bond we created even after the project its shows how they value small businesses.
I was even taken aback on how they were even willing to intervene where we have supplier constrains. They made very valuable contribution to our supplier’s network.
As a company and on my personal capacity, I will recommend anyone who has a very sound order to them. It wasn’t all about them making a profit but also to make sure that we succeed and deliver quality to our client. I wish I could do more to advertise their business but where possible I will do that.

Hosia P. Matlou | Phahama Systems Development

Four years back I was introduced X Quotient by a friend in Pretoria because I had a purchase order to deliver furniture in one of the Government Offices in MMabatho I had no funds to can purchase the goods.

I made one phone call to Pieter and mind you I didn’t even know him I drove to Pretoria to meet him,there I met a short gentleman

very friendly guy and gave him my story.

In less than 10 min our talks were finished and he agreed to can help. Two day later after verifying everything the furniture was paid for and delivered to Potchcefstroom and my clients were very happy with a very little interest charged. I did a lot of business with them and I can recommend anybody who would like to work with them.

As a SMME and emerging company, I turned to get Purchase Orders from government departments. It was difficult to deliver according to their expectations since i didn’t have money for whatever the order was issued for, also i couldn’t get a loan from the bank because my recording wont allow me.

The X Quotient helped with the loan to get the job done. their interest rates are very low compared to other organisations I have approached before I met them. The commitment they have given to my company assisting me to verify if the PO was legit and helps me to search for cheaper suppliers with quality products.

I have recommended the X Quotient to several people and the feedback I got was so amazing. Thank you guys for being a ladder to us small businesses.
