INVOICE
FACTORING.

Invoice factoring means a business sells its outstanding B2B invoices to a financing party and receives most of the invoice value up front — with the balance typically following once the customer pays. You're not waiting on your customer; the factor is.

How factoring generally works

SELL THE INVOICE — GET PAID NOW.

In a typical factoring arrangement, the financing party (the factor) purchases your eligible invoices and advances a large portion of their value immediately. When your customer pays the invoice, the remaining balance — less the factor's fee — comes back to you.

The result: your business converts completed work into cash now, instead of acting as an interest-free lender to its own customers for 30–90 days.
