Need cash for your business but don’t want to take on debt or create further debt within your business? Then OptiPay can help you with a flexible funding solution today. Don’t wait for 45 or 90+ days for your clients to pay their invoices you’ve issued to them. Turn your outstanding invoices into cash within 24 hours with Invoice Discounting!
Invoice discounting is a great way of ensuring your business has the healthy cash flow it needs to operate and thrive. It can also be a smart way to get funds the business requires to invest in growth without getting tied into a loan with a fixed repayment schedule at high interest rates.
Flexible invoice discounting offers an alternative to business overdrafts and
unsecured loans by leveraging the thousands of dollars which businesses have tied up in unpaid invoices. By unlocking the cash in its accounts receivable ledger and getting that money today, a business can often meet all its finance requirements without having to sign up to a loan or give away equity.
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 upfront application fees to set up an account, nor does OptiPay charge weekly or monthly interest and principal repayment fees like a traditional unsecured business loan. All you pay is a small percentage of the invoice value funded (called a discount fee) and only when your debtors pay their invoices. What this means is that you make no ongoing interest repayments at all. The actual discount fee charged can be less than 2% of your invoice value, suffice to say that it usually works out cheaper than taking out an unsecured business loan or even an unsecured overdraft facility. Yes, that’s correct – simple and fair.
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.
Typically, you receive up to 90% of your invoice/s value up front, in cash. You then receive the balance of the invoice/s, less the OptiPay agreed discount fee when your debtor/s pay your invoice/s.
You can access as much as 90% of your total accounts receivable ledger, at any given time. Get in touch with us to find out how much money you could raise today.
With OptiPay, there aren’t any. Not only is establishing a Funding Account completely free, there are no upfront fees on the process of getting cash. What’s more, invoice discounting is not a loan, so there are no interest repayments to be made.
It’s the flexible, fair way to meet your business funding needs.
Australian businesses traditionally relied on loans and bank overdrafts for their funding. This meant that they were forced to sign up to years of interest rates and repayments even when they only needed to cover a gap in their cash flow. No wonder that Australian businesses have embraced invoice discounting to the tune of $60 billion a year. Australian SMEs who use invoice discounting are getting a far better and fairer deal.
No upfront Application fees, 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.
Your credit history is not important and we don’t care if the banks will give you a loan or not.
