Invoice factoring allows you to get paid when you raise your invoices rather than waiting for your customer to pay. We take responsibility for securing and collecting the payment from your customers, leaving you free to focus on the day-to-day running of your business.

How Does Factoring Work?
After you get in touch with us, we’ll arrange a meeting within 2 days. Based on our discussions, we’ll make an informed decision over the suitability of invoice factoring and give you an indication of the finance available. We will aim to get your facility up-and-running with 7 working days. Once you raise an invoice, you’ll receive up to 85% of the cash owed to you. When your customer pays the invoice, you will receive the outstanding balance.
We will manage all elements of your credit control function or our credit controllers will directly contact your customers to ensure that prompt payments are received.
Unlike other factoring companies, our contract with you is not based upon a minimal monthly volume of invoicing. Instead, we base our contracts on quarterly volume. This is fairer because it accounts for the natural peaks-and-troughs of your business.
Is Factoring Suitable For My Business?
Invoice factoring is available for all businesses, whether you are a start up or a larger SME.
Some of the businesses we work with have tried other factoring companies only to find their service doesn’t live up to expectations. Luckily, the process of switching from an existing factor is simple. The inter-factor transfer process is a standard system which takes around 10 days to complete, and gives you the option of using a more bespoke factoring service tailored to your requirements.
