How Invoice Factoring Works

The 5 Steps to Fast Working Capital with A/R Factoring

How Invoice Factoring Works

Is Invoice Factoring Right for My Business?

What is a Factoring Company?

Invoice factoring, also known as A/R Factoring, is a financing solution for companies to turn their 30-90 days outstanding invoices and open accounts receivable into right now working capital. If your business invoices business or government customers for products and services, your unpaid accounts receivables can be assigned to Bankers Factoring for an ongoing 80-90% advance to your checking account on the days you invoice your customers.

With Accounts receivable financing or invoice factoring, with Bankers Factoring, we offer your business up to a 90% cash advance of your invoices. After the customer pays Bankers Factoring, we rebate you the remainder of the invoice, minus our fees.

Bankers Factoring partners with businesses needing up to $5 million in an invoice factoring credit facility. We do not hassle your customers, offering a light touch by only verifying that approved invoices are in your system and will be paid according to your agreed-upon terms with your customers resulting in a beneficial relationship with all parties. Bankers Factoring and our employee-owners are ready to help your business utilize our non-recourse invoice factoring and purchase order financing cash flow solutions.

The 5 Steps of Invoice Factoring

  1. Invoice Your Customer

When you deliver products or services to your business-to-business (B2B) or business-to-government (B2G) customers, you currently quickly bill them so your invoices can get in their accounts payable system so you can get paid in 30-90 days. That will not change when you get on board with Bankers Factoring.

Qualifying for invoice factoring with Bankers is effortless through our online application. Generating an invoice for your customer will create the accounts receivable for Bankers Factoring to purchase in exchange for an 80-90% cash advance.

  1. Sell Your Invoices (Accounts Receivables) to Bankers Factoring

Bankers Factoring will qualify and approve your business for A/R factoring financing after our quick and easy process. We look at the creditworthiness of your customers to ensure they have the financial means to pay your open invoices and that your customers have a reliable payment history.

When Bankers Factoring approves your invoice factoring line, we buy your accounts receivable as an asset purchase and the rights to the future payments. Also, the deal’s structure is determined during this time, including the initial factoring line, factoring fees, and cash advance amount which are mapped out in the factoring agreement.

The deal structure depends on variables such as your history of chargebacks and returns with your clients.

  1. Bankers Factoring Issues the Cash Advance

After we approve your invoices in the morning, we wire the first installment or the factoring advance to your bank account, typically 80-90% of your total open accounts receivables by 4 pm. You will supply Bankers with a Funding schedule that gives us the batch of invoices each day that you want to be funded. Whether we verify one or all the invoices, we will wire you by day’s end.

Bankers Factoring, the most dependable invoice factoring company in North America, provides same-day funding after approval in most cases. Our light touch is well-respects by our client’s customers when it comes to repaying the invoice. Our proven process enhances business relationships.

Bankers Factoring serves clients across the globe with accounts receivable financing services. Some common industries include trucking and transportation, construction, payroll and staffing, technology, and wholesale businesses.

  1. Customer Repays the Invoice

Your customer will pay Bankers Factoring according to the terms of the invoice. We manage all receivable activities, leaving you the time to operate and grow your business. The Federal Assignment of Claims Act governs invoice factoring transactions that are assigned by the federal government.

  1. Bankers Factoring Issues the Earned Reserve Rebate to Close the Transaction 

After we receive payment from your customer, we payout the remaining invoice balance, minus our fees. This closes the invoice factoring transaction. For example, if your advance was 80%, we pay the final 20% minus our factor rate per day.  

What Companies Use A/R Factoring

Invoice factoring, or accounts receivable factoring, is an efficient form of capital for businesses lacking consistent cash flow. If your business has invoices of at least $25,000 per month to B2B or B2G customers, our customized factoring services could work for your company. Bankers Factoring is proud to offer full invoice factoring and PO financing solutions.

The two types of invoice factoring include:

  • Full Recourse Factoring: the factoring company does not take on the non-payment risk plus the credit risk if the customer does not pay the accounts receivable or unpaid invoices, they owe.
  • Nonrecourse Factoring: the factoring company takes on the credit risk, including bankruptcy, insolvency, and protracted slow pay. Bankers Factoring provides a transparent factor fee, no hidden fees, and unlimited capital. As our client, you are responsible for the quality and performance of your products and services with your customer, the account debtor.

Invoice Factoring Terms, Rates & Fees

Invoice factoring with Bankers is an efficient working capital solution for companies of all sizes, locations, and stages. If your invoices qualify for invoice factoring, your business must be up to date on taxes or have a tax payment plan in place. Bankers Factoring works with startups and clients with millions of dollars in monthly receivables.

Qualifying for invoice factoring with Bankers is more straightforward than qualifying for traditional financing sources such as large financial institutions and banks. You will typically qualify for invoice factoring with invoices from credit-worthy customers and have no personal tax or legal issues. Your credit report and scores are not part of the qualifying process.

Invoice Factoring Qualifications

To qualify for invoice factoring with Bankers, we look at your customer’s creditworthiness and your tax compliance.  Below are three core categories for qualifying for accounts receivable factoring:

  • The invoice, A/R, and account debtor: We look at the customer of the invoices or the account debtor from your B2B or B2G customer entities.  Collectively, we ensure there are no claims on the invoice that would interfere with repayment of the A/R.  Commercial customers that often are extended longer payment terms have established credit history and a history of on-time payment.
  • Tax and legal history: Your business should not have a history of serious tax or legal problems.  It is important to have your quarterly 941 forms and annual business returns ready for qualifying.
  • Documentation: to expedite your approval process with Bankers, it is critical to have the proper documentation ready with your factoring application.  Critical documents include accounts receivable aging reports, invoices, articles of incorporation, customer contracts, and general identification proof. Your credit score is not a major variable like business financing at a bank.

Depending on your situation, industry, or customer there may be additional qualifying standards. 

Invoice Factoring Rates

The base cost of an invoice factor depends on two things:

  • Discount rate (or factor rate): The discount rate is the primary cost of borrowing money from the factoring company and is typically charged on a monthly basis. Bankers factor rates range from 0.75% to 3% depending on your business. Bankers offers a tiered system for discount rates, so the more you factor invoices in a month, the lower your rate can be.
  • Scope of the transaction: Discount rates are charged at regular interval so the invoice amount and time it takes for the customer to pay your invoice will determine your cost.

Example of invoice factoring costs: If you factor a $100,000 invoice with an advance of 80% and a discount rate of 1.8% per month.  You, the client, would receive $80,000 initially as the first installment.  If your customer pays within 30-days, Bankers Factoring keeps the $1,800 discount fee and pays you the remaining $18,200 rebate.
