Factoring with or without credit control

 

Factoring is a process that provides your business with up to 90% of the gross invoice value, normally within hours of you raising the sales invoice to your client (receiving the remaining 10% when your client pays). In certain cases some lenders will advance as much as 95%!

In simple terms, you raise the invoice, upload it to the lender’s portal and then request the amount of money you require. Some lenders will give you a choice of them undertaking the credit control or you administering it yourself. Once the invoice gets paid, the remaining balance becomes available to you.
