Invoice discounting and factoring
What is invoice finance?
Invoice finance improves cash flow and provides working capital for businesses by releasing up to 90% of an invoice’s value within 24 hours, so you’re less affected by any delays associated with trading on credit.
Also known as accounts receivable finance, invoice finance covers factoring and invoice discounting that can be tailored to suit your business’s cash flow requirements, and can be incorporated into asset based lending, international finances and payroll solutions.
Why use invoice finance?
Invoice finance is more flexible than traditional business finance as the cash you can access grows in line with your sales ledger. By boosting your cash flow in just 24 hours, invoice finance allows you to bridge the cash flow gap between paying suppliers and receiving customer payments. It can help your business negotiate supplier discounts.
Credit control can be built into your factoring agreement to reduce in house overheads and improve how your business manages its sales ledger. You can add credit insurance to your factoring and invoice discounting agreements to help protect against debtor insolvency or late payments.
Invoice finance can help fund acquisitions or mergers. Unlike a bank overdraft, invoice finance can’t be recalled on demand so your business can focus on growing sales.
