What is Invoice Factoring’s Cost to You?
Many Factoring companies make it difficult to calculate your true cost of invoice factoring. At Bankers Factoring, our goal is that you can calculate your A/R factoring rates and fees, including credit protection, in your head. Here are non-recourse factoring rates and fees explained.
Business Accounts Receivable Factoring is not algebra and, at its most complex, requires a small bit of multiplication. We want you and your CPA to understand the accounting math behind your cost of factoring receivables at Bankers Factoring and what non-recourse factoring means for the success of your business.
What is Your Factor Cost?
Your total cost to factor your invoices is your factor rate times the invoice amount. The higher the factor advance rate, the lower your overall cost. Also, an implied cost is how long the factoring company holds your reserve.
The following example of non-recourse accounts receivable financing includes the discount fee and the entire fee structure. The length of time the customer takes to pay is 45 days until the invoice is paid. Working capital is moved forward by 30 to 90 days to get you through any short-term cash crunch via our factoring services. Other factoring companies may have additional A/R factoring rates and factoring charges.

And the above full disclosure rates include bad debt credit protection. Bankers Factoring takes the credit risk against your customers filing bankruptcy or going insolvent. In addition, your factoring rate structure could go down as you do more volume.
Depending on your industry and company’s sales per month, your advance rate would be 80-93% with a factoring rate of .9-1.6% per month with a daily rate after the first 30 days. You will also see flat fee rates but these tend to be at a slightly higher cost to you than a daily rate.
Pay special attention to the factoring advance rate or the percentage of the invoice you receive upfront. The advance rate changes your true cost to factor dramatically.
