What is Invoice Finance?

Invoice finance allows businesses to release cash tied up in unpaid invoices by borrowing against the value of outstanding customer payments. Once an invoice is raised, a lender can advance a large percentage of the invoice value, typically within 24 hours, helping to improve immediate cash flow. The business then receives the remaining balance, minus fees, once the customer pays the invoice in full. This form of invoice finance helps companies maintain healthy working capital without waiting on lengthy payment terms. By using invoice finance, businesses can stabilise cash flow, support growth, and take on new opportunities with confidence.

Invoice Submission

The business submits its unpaid invoices to the finance provider.

Advance Payment

The provider advances a percentage of the invoice value, typically 80-90%.

Final Settlement

Once the customer pays the invoice, the provider releases the remaining amount minus a small fee.
This simple and efficient process helps businesses bridge cash flow gaps and manage operational expenses.
