Frequently Asked Questions
There are five simple steps to invoice factoring:
1) You deliver your goods/services to your Customers.
2) You send invoices to your Customers.
3) You sell your invoices to a factoring company and get paid a cash advance of between 80% – 90% of the invoice face value, less a nominal fee.
4) Your factor collects payment directly from your Customers, typically 30-45 days later.
5) Once your factor has been paid in full, they’ll pay you the remaining invoice balance.
Any business that invoices their company clients can use factoring to get the funds they need. Businesses in industries from manufacturing to professional services can use invoice factoring to their advantage. So long as you produce an invoice for goods you deliver or services you render, you can use invoice factoring.
While any company can use invoice factoring, there are a few types of businesses that can benefit the most from using it. These include: cable construction services (for telecommunications), staffing services (for hotels, restaurants and rental car agencies), retail distribution companies, manufacturing, marketing and PR agencies, and craft distilleries and breweries, just to name a few.
