Factoring for B2B Start-Ups
How to Finance a Startup Business with Invoice Factoring
Small business owners building startup companies have a business to run but often miss new sales because they have no funding. Entrepreneurs invest their life savings into their business and hit roadblocks once those funds are gone. We understand the sleepless nights of covering payroll, but Bankers Factorings removes the burden of cash flow issues.
Financing Options for B2B Startups
Accounts receivable (A/R) factoring is a tool business uses to address short-term cash flow gaps by selling their unpaid invoices. A/R factoring, also known as invoice factoring, costs as little as 1% of the invoice value for each period the invoice is outstanding. The funding amounts can vary from $10,000 to $9,000,000. Bankers Factoring removes the hassle of A/R management and bad debt protection for our clients.
Bankers Factoring offers a quick and easy approval process for startups that need financing quickly. We provide same-day funding to entrepreneurs, startups, and small businesses when they need it most.

- Invoice quality: Creditworthy business (B2B) or government (B2G) customers
- Paperwork: Invoices, driver’s license, voided business check, and bank statements

Who is Accounts Receivable Factoring Right For?
AR Factoring helps startups secure funding and reliable cash flow solutions with no established credit or financials. Entrepreneurs and small business owners often struggle with cash flow management. Your industry might be seasonal in nature, and your only customer has an average days sales outstanding (DSO) of 100 days.
- Startups that invoice commercial customers: Factoring is more accessible than securing traditional financing such as bank loans. If your customers are slow-paying, A/R factoring can be a quick solution.
- Companies with extended payment terms: Customers with 60, 90, and 120-day repayment terms make it hard for startups to cover expenses for months. Factoring resolves this cash gap to meet payroll and take on new sales.
- Independent contractors who bill clients for large projects: Long projects require contractors to cover expenses until the project is complete or a customer pays the invoice.
- Business owners with low credit scores: Invoice factoring relies on the creditworthiness of our client’s customers.
