Factoring: FAQ

Factoring is the purchase of your accounts receivable (invoices) in order to provide you with the cash flow you need. Factoring is a widely accepted financing option used by companies of all size.

Typically within 24 hours of receiving your company's information, we'll issue you a proposal. Upon acceptance, we conclude our due diligence and complete documentation. Funding can happen as early as within a few days of initial contact with your company. Ongoing, it is common to fund within 24 hours of your invoice submission to Working Capital Company.

Factoring has been around for centuries. It's one of the oldest types of financing, first seen in the United States in the garment and textile industries. Today however, factoring is a funding solution for companies in all industries.

Factoring is faster and less complicated than bank financing. Factoring companies make decisions based primarily on the credit worthiness of your customers, while a bank's credit decisions rely mainly on your company's financial history, cash flow, and collateral. We fund quickly, often within days of receiving an application, when banks generally take weeks or months. In addition, when you factor your accounts receivable, your company incurs no debt, as there is no interest to pay or principal to repay. Factoring can also help companies that banks traditionally shy away from, such as start-ups, companies with tax liens, or even companies in bankruptcy.

Businesses with cash flow problems cannot wait 30 to 60 days or more for payment on their invoices. They need immediate cash to meet the financial obligations of their companies. Factoring provides this cash to businesses through the purchase of accounts receivable.

Factoring is a good fit for many companies for a variety of reasons. Start-ups and high-growth businesses need cash from factoring to help fuel their growth. Companies who have suppliers to pay or service-based companies with high payroll and payroll taxes use factoring to assure they can meet their financial obligations.

Companies who sell a product or service to commercial or government entities and need cash fast to make payroll, payroll taxes, pay suppliers, or fulfill other financial obligations make excellent factoring clients.

Rates are based on the amount your company factors and how long it takes your customers to pay. We are happy to provide you with a QUICK QUOTE if you give us a bit of information regarding your business.

No. Factoring is not a loan. It is the purchase of an asset, your accounts receivable. While approval of a bank loan considers all of your company’s assets as well as your financial history and balance sheet, a factor relies mainly on the credit worthiness of your customers. Factoring is often the ideal solution for businesses with poor financial histories, little or no track records, or weak balance sheets.

You can factor almost any valid invoice for a service or product that’s been delivered to and accepted by your creditworthy commercial customer.

We can advance you up to 90% of your receivables immediately. The balance (less our fees) is released to you upon payment of your invoices.

As we base our financing decisions mainly on the credit worthiness of your customer base, generally the financial strength of your company is not going to prevent you from obtaining our factoring services.

Our clients use the cash to meet payroll, payroll taxes, pay suppliers, and take advantage of supplier discounts, purchase inventory or equipment, and take on more orders.
