Invoice Finance

Quickly Improving Your Cashflow

What is Invoice Finance?

Invoice finance, also known as accounts receivable financing, is a flexible business funding solution that allows companies to access funds tied up in unpaid invoices. By borrowing against outstanding invoices, businesses can improve cash flow and secure immediate working capital without waiting for customer payments.

How Does It Work?

Instead of waiting for customers to pay, businesses can sell their invoices to a finance provider (known as a factor) at a discounted rate. The process works as follows:

  1. Invoice Submission: The business submits its unpaid invoices to the finance provider.
  2. Advance Payment: The provider advances a percentage of the invoice value, typically 80-90%.
  3. 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.

Who Benefits?

Invoice finance is an ideal solution for businesses across various industries that experience cash flow challenges. Here are examples of businesses that commonly use invoice finance:
