“Cash is King” and never more so than in business. Businesses need cash (working capital) to operate. They need to purchase product or supply inputs, pay staff, as well as cover bills, plus they also need money to invest and grow.
All too often this cash is borrowed in the form of high interest unsecured loans or an overdraft. Whereas most businesses actually already have the money – there are usually thousands of dollars tied up in unpaid invoices sitting in your Accounts Receivables (“AR”) ledger at any one time. Invoice finance unlocks that money by getting you cash upfront, instead of waiting 30 to 90+ days for an invoice to be paid, businesses can meet many of their funding needs including major investments with invoice finance.
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.
OptiPay charges no ongoing principal-and-interest style repayments like a traditional unsecured business loan. Instead, pricing is based on a discount fee, which is a small percentage of the invoice value funded, and it’s only charged when your debtors pay their invoices.
The actual discount fee varies depending on factors such as the size of your facility, the strength of your debtors, and the volume being funded. For most businesses, the overall cost works out to be highly competitive compared with overdrafts or short-term business loans, while providing far greater flexibility and scalability.
Simple, transparent and designed for growing businesses.
OptiPay’s cash flow funding solutions DO NOT require property security as collateral. We use your Accounts Receivables ledger as collateral. The larger your ledger, the more funds we will advance you with no other physical security.
To get access to cash from their Account Receivables Ledger rather than waiting for their debtors to pay them, these funds can then be used to run and grow the business. It is the same concept as offering your customer (aka debtor) an upfront discount if they pay your invoice early, and it allows businesses to obtain an advance of up to 90% of the invoice value with the 10% balance (less a small fee) received when the debtor pays.
No property security required and no hidden fees.
We’ll provide the flexibility you require in order to manage your cash flows. No long lock-in contracts either.
Don’t wait weeks or months for your money. Funding in 24 hours after approval of your fundal limit.
Typically, you receive up to 90% of your invoice/s value up front, in cash. You then receive the balance of the invoices, less the OptiPay agreed discount fee when your debtors pay your invoices.
If you issue invoices and your client (the debtor) fails to pay, and your business has not committed a fraudulent transaction, then OptiPaySecure™ steps in and protects you and covers up to 90% of the funding provided as well as the legal costs to chase your client (debtor). This is unlike business loans where you run the risk of losing your business as well as personal assets in the event of default by your client.
With OptiPay you are not locked into repayments on a daily, weekly, or monthly schedule. In fact, there are no repayments at all because OptiPay is not a bank or like other ‘unsecured’ cash flow lenders and does not force businesses into ongoing loan facilities with fixed repayment terms. All you pay is a low pre-agreed fee and only at the time when your client pays their invoices.
Extra fees are so common in business lending that SMEs have gotten used to them – but they shouldn’t accept them! It’s worth looking at a short, non-exhaustive list of fees OptiPay does NOT charge compared to other lenders.
