Compare factoring

Factoring is a form of invoice finance where the provider advances funds against your invoices and usually takes over collection from your customers. Because the provider manages the ledger, factoring can suit smaller businesses that do not have a dedicated credit team.

How factoring works

Customers are generally notified and pay the factor directly, which is the main difference from confidential invoice discounting.

You assign invoices to the provider, which advances an agreed percentage. The provider chases payment from your customers and pays you the balance, less fees, once collected.

Who it suits

  • Smaller B2B businesses without in-house collections
  • Businesses that want to outsource credit control
  • Rapid growth with long customer payment terms

What lenders look at

  • Debtor quality and spread
  • Invoice volume
  • Disputes and credit notes history

Things to watch

  • Your customers will usually know you use factoring.
  • Check whether the facility is recourse (you carry bad debts) or non-recourse.

Factoring: common questions

Will my customers know I am using factoring?

Usually, yes. Factoring is generally a disclosed arrangement where customers pay the provider. If confidentiality matters, look at invoice discounting.
