Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What is invoice factoring?
Invoice factoring is a financing solution where businesses sell their unpaid invoices to a funding provider in exchange for immediate cash. This improves cash flow without taking on debt.
2. How does invoice factoring work?
The process is simple:
- You issue invoices to your customers
- You submit invoices to a funding provider
- You receive an advance (typically 70–95%)
- Your customer pays the invoice
- You receive the remaining balance minus fees
3. Is invoice factoring a loan?
No. Invoice factoring is not a loan. It is the sale of your accounts receivable, so no debt is added to your balance sheet.
4. Who can use invoice factoring?
Any business that invoices other businesses (B2B) can qualify, including:
- Startups
- Small & medium businesses
- Large corporations
- Export/import companies
- Staffing, trucking, manufacturing, and more
