3 Ways Factoring Trumps a Small Business Loan

Maintaining a steady cash flow for your small business can be tough. When you serve other businesses and invoice for your services on 30-day, 60-day or even 90-day terms, what do you do when you need cash before the invoices get paid?

A Common Cash Shortfall Problem

This is a common problem faced by smaller service-oriented businesses. For example, you provide services to another business and invoice them for $10,000. The invoice terms are for 30 days. But you just had to pay up front for the materials needed to perform this project, leaving you low on cash – and payroll is due by this Friday.

A short-term business loan requires you to pass a credit check, put up some form of collateral and jump through all sorts of hoops. Factoring allows you to get cash from that invoice now, minus a small fee, so you can use the money when you need it. The factoring company collects your payment from your creditor under the terms of the invoice as agreed.

3 Reasons to Choose Factoring Over a Loan

How is factoring better than a small-business loan? Here are three good reasons:

1. No Credit Check – With factoring, there is no credit check. We depend on the creditworthiness of your creditor to pay their debt.
2. No Collateral – Factoring requires no collateral because it is not a loan. The guarantee you put up is the invoice for services already rendered to your client.
3. No Risk – Non-recourse factoring means our company assumes the risk if your creditor does not pay the invoice. You owe nothing but the factoring fee.
