Factoring is a way to finance a business that is in need of cash flow and/or experiencing growth. Factoring provides immediate cash in exchange for invoices. Factoring is the purchase of accounts receivable giving businesses control over how and when they can grow without creating debt on their balance sheet. Usually taking 7-10 business days for the initial funding, factoring can be set up for a business in a few simple steps.   

Securing working capital can be a challenge for any size business, especially if the business is new or doesn’t have the cash or credit history to support a traditional bank loan or line of credit.
