Castle Water partnered with Orbyt and MBA Group to deliver a secure, multi-channel billing and payment solution.
Through seamless integration between Orbyt’s SaaS platform and MBA’s communication infrastructure, the result was a fully automated billing distribution system spanning print, digital, and dynamic chaser notifications.
The Challenge
Castle Water, the UK’s largest independent business water retailer, faced the modern utility challenge: customers expecting digital-first experiences while requiring reliable, secure billing across multiple touchpoints. With a diverse customer base spanning large multi-site organisations to SMEs, they needed a solution that could deliver consistency at scale while accelerating payment cycles.
The Solution
Castle Water partnered with Orbyt, whose modern SaaS platform offered secure, multi-channel billing and payment capabilities. To ensure seamless delivery across all communication channels, Orbyt integrated with MBA Group, creating an end-to-end solution that automated billing distribution across print and digital channels.
The implementation experience was described by Castle Water as “seamless and effortless.” Through close collaboration and efficient technical integration, Castle Water moved quickly from planning to production. Communication workflows were established with minimal business disruption, enabling immediate improvements in delivery speed and customer reach.
“Reducing DSO is a priority for us, but ensuring a seamless, customer-friendly experience is essential. Customers are paying their bills before the due date.”
