First Step: Filling Out the Client Application
Start off by completing a basic client profile form that we'll provide. It'll ask for simple details like your company's name, location, what your business is about, and some info on your clients.
You might also need to provide documents like an accounts receivable aging report, or info on your clients' credit limits. Don't forget, we (the factor) are trying to gauge how creditworthy your clients are, beyond their payment history with your business. We're looking for a wider view of their overall credit health.
In this first step, we'll also discuss basic financial details. For instance, how many invoices do you want to factor each month (meaning, how much cash do you need quickly)? What will be the advance rate and the discount rate? And, how soon can we provide the advance?
Often, the answers to these questions depend on your clients' financial health and the expected monthly sales to be factored. Other factors can affect this too, like your industry, how long you've been in business, and your clients' risk profile. For example, if you have a lot of high-risk clients, you'll likely pay more in factoring fees than if your clients are slow-paying government bodies.
Remember, in the factoring business, volume matters. The more invoices you factor (the higher your volume), the better your rates will be.
We'll use the client profile you give us to determine if your business is a good candidate for factoring. Essentially, we're evaluating the risks against the rewards based on the information you've provided.
Once we give the green light, be ready to negotiate terms and conditions. This process takes into consideration various elements of the deal. For instance, if you're factoring $10,000, you won't get as good a deal as a company factoring $500,000.
During this negotiation, you'll gain a good understanding of what it costs to factor your accounts receivable. Once you've reached an agreement with us, the funding process gets underway. We conduct due diligence by looking into your clients' credit and any liens against your company. We also verify the authenticity of your invoice before purchasing your receivables and giving you the cash advance.
We relieve your headaches and stress of collecting on accounts receivables.

Don't wait long periods for a loan. Many of our factoring deals can take place in as little as 24 to 48 hours. If you need capital right now or are looking to expand then factoring is the way to go. We work on your time instead of you working on a bank's schedule.
If you need cash and you're sitting on a lot of unpaid invoices then factoring with us is the way to go. We'll give you the cash that your business needs and collect from your customers.
Debt is risky while at the same time being beneficial to growing a business. Start-ups can relieve themselves of the risk of debt and still create capital with factoring.
If you're a start-up or your business has a poor history or credit then you can still get the cash that you need. Today's banking atmosphere makes it a challenge for even the most-qualified businesses to get a loan. Factoring takes care of all of that.
Without a collections department or a small staff, collections often come down to you doing all of the leg work. Our Factoring Service will alleviate that burden and provide the service that you're not equipped to handle.
