The Nexa Recovery Engine: Transparent Pricing
In the Current economic climate, predictability is everything. We offer two distinct, low-friction tiers designed to clear your aging ledger without clouding your profit margins:
-
Fixed-Fee Model ($15): Best for early-stage accounts. You pay a one-time flat fee of $15 per account, and the customer pays you directly. You keep 100% of the principal recovered.
-
Contingency-Based Service (20%–40%): For older or high-resistance debt, we work on performance. No recovery means no fee. You only pay us when we successfully secure your funds.
Contact Nexa to audit your current aging report and deploy the right strategy.
A Note from Your Account Reconciliation Concierges
We don’t think of ourselves as a collection agency; we are your “Account Reconciliation Concierges.” In a tight-knit city like Pasadena—where your business standing travels as fast as the 110 Freeway at midnight—traditional tactics are a liability. We act as a professional bridge, turning “debtors” back into “customers” by resolving billing confusion with empathy and firmness.
To ensure your brand stays safe, every call we make is recorded and randomly reviewed. This prevents “rogue collectors” from triggering “review-bombs” on your Google Profile and ensures the “Velvet Hammer” remains perfectly balanced between results and reputation.

Red Flag Box: Pasadena Collection Pitfalls
-
The “Ivy League” Delay: Many Pasadena firms wait too long to collect from high-net-worth clients out of “politeness,” often pushing accounts beyond the four-year California statute of limitations.
-
Reputation Neglect: Using aggressive out-of-area collectors in a city that values “Old Money” decorum often leads to immediate negative social media fallout.
-
The “110” Stagnation: Allowing your aging report to sit stationary while waiting for internal staff to find time—don’t let your cash flow get stuck in a permanent traffic jam.
Regulatory Brief: California & Federal Rules
Navigating debt in the Current landscape requires a surgical understanding of the Rosenthal Act and the federal FDCPA.
-
Commercial Protection: California law has recently expanded consumer-grade protections to covered commercial debts under $500,000. B2B collection now requires the same anti-harassment standards once reserved for individuals.
-
Validation Rights: Debtors must be provided with a written validation notice within five days of first contact—a process our system handles with 100% precision.
-
Statute of Limitations: Generally, California maintains a four-year limit on written contracts. Prompt action in the 60-90 day window is essential for a high recovery probability.
