Debt Factoring or Invoice Financing as its better known, allows businesses to access funds owed to them before it is received by their debtors. It’s a way for businesses to access up to 90% from their outstanding invoices upfront and receive the rest when the customer pays, as per your normal trade terms with them.
Debt factoring is a flexible alternative to traditional business loans as the amount of funds that can be accessed is based on the business’ sales (not the balance sheet or the debt and ATO position of the business). Debt factoring can hugely benefit cash flow since businesses can get instant access to a large percentage of the money owed to them immediately, instead of waiting for payments to arrive in 30 to 60+ days’ time.
Businesses that use debt factoring have better negotiating power with suppliers by using the money they receive upfront, to take advantage of early payment discounts and bulk-buying opportunities with their suppliers.
As soon as you’re approved, you can upload some of your invoices or your entire Accounts Receivables ledger and you will receive the funds on the same day or within 24 hours of invoice verification. To get started, simply complete the online application form provided on our website. It will only take a few seconds and won’t affect your credit rating.
Solve your business cash flow needs with flexible, fair funding.
There are all kinds of reasons why businesses are seeking to avoid loans and bank overdrafts (assuming you get approved for a business loan) – which are restrictive, often linked to property security, and commit a borrower to long months of regular repayments. That’s why Australian businesses are now securing debtor finance of over $60 billion each year using their accounts receivable. Debt factoring is the smart option for Australian SMEs.
