There are benefits and disadvantages to invoice factoring, which we’ll cover in this article.

Invoice factoring is a financing process in which a business sells its unpaid invoices to a third-party company, called a factoring company. When an invoice is sold, the third-party company pays the business a percentage of the total amount originally charged to the client and usually takes full responsibility for collecting the payment from the buyer. This transaction allows businesses to get quick access to cash before the clients pay for the goods or services received, allowing them to re-invest that cash right away.

Most invoices are set to payment terms of 30 to 90 days, meaning that from the day an invoice is sent to your customer, you’re unlikely to see that money for at least a month, if not longer. These long payment cycles put many small business owners in a constant cash crunch, making it hard to keep up with critical expenses like payroll, utilities or inventory. That likely prevents you from investing in growth opportunities or maintaining day-to-day operations that keep everything on track.

Invoice factoring allows a business to grow and unlock cash that is tied up in future income, so that it can re-invest that capital and time is not spent collecting payments. Thus, there is a removal of the unpredictable nature of waiting for payment so that revenue can be booked and capital is then available to spend.
