Invoice Finance

Overview

Invoice Finance (also known as debtor finance) helps businesses access cash from unpaid invoices quickly, using accounts receivable as collateral. You can get up to 80% of invoice value upfront, with the remainder received after your customers pay the invoice. A small fee is charged for this service. It's great for managing short-term cash flow, and typically involves shorter loan periods to keep costs lower. Plus, it can be set up discreetly, so your customers won’t know a lender is involved. Perfect for invoice-reliant businesses!
