What is Invoice Factoring?

 Invoice factoring companies provide businesses in need of instant capital with the funds necessary for them to operate. Invoice factoring is not a loan from the factoring company, instead the factoring company purchases the invoices owed or accounts receivables from the business. The invoices are sold to the factoring company who then instantly fronts a percentage (typically 65% to 90%) of the money owed. The invoices and account receivables are sent by and paid directly to the factoring company, which then sends the company the remaining amount due, less a small fee for the transaction. Most businesses opt for invoice factoring, as opposed to a business loan, because the funds provided through invoice factoring are easier to obtain. And since invoice factoring companies base their decision to provide funds on the credit worthiness of the company's clients, as opposed to the company itself, no debt is added to the company. There are several advantages to the invoice factoring method. The most important advantage from a business perspective is that there is no delay in the business' day to day operations or cash flow. On projects that require equipment or other resources for deliverables, invoice factoring allows the work to proceed. Another major advantage to invoice factoring is that the business does not incur any liability in the loan repayment; the clients required to pay the invoices are carefully screened for creditworthiness before the factoring is approved. Therefore it is the responsibility of the factoring company to obtain the payment funds.
