How Does Invoice Factoring Work?
Invoice factoring takes place when a company sells its unpaid invoices (the receivables) to a third party like us. In return, this third party (the “factor”) provides the company with immediate cash, which is typically an agreed upon percentage of the invoice amount. Once the invoice is paid, the remaining balance—minus a fee—is returned to the company.
It’s Time To Put Your Money To Work.

Invoice Factoring FAQs
Q. What is an Advance Rate?
A. The “Advance Rate” is the percentage of the total invoice you receive as an advance—usually 60-90% of the face value. For example, $1,000 x 80% = $800. The $200 will be rebated to you after the invoice is paid by your customer minus any servicing fees.
Q. How do I submit invoices?
A. Your customers may have other requirements, but most invoices can be submitted via email, or you can use our handy and secure client portal.
Q. How do I receive the money on my advances and rebates?
A. Funds can come into your bank account through a wire or ACH. You can also receive a check or load funds on your fuel card.
Q. How do I know when I have received the advances and rebates?
A. You can access all your account information online 24/7 through our client portal.
Q. How do I know what invoices are still unpaid, and which ones have been collected?
A. In your online portal, you can access all this information. AR Aging Reports show open invoices, while collection reports show what’s been paid. Or if you prefer you can speak directly to your account manager.
Q. How do I get a new debtor approved and how long does it take?
A. The quickest way to do this is to use our client portal to submit the new debtor information. Or you can call or email us. With a few exceptions, we can typically process the approval within an hour.
