Accounts receivable funding, also known as invoice financing or factoring. This is a financial arrangement where a company uses its outstanding accounts receivable as collateral to obtain immediate cash from a financial institution. As one of the leading accounts receivable factoring companies, we provide short-term borrowing solutions that help businesses meet financial obligations and improve cash flow.

How Accounts Receivable Finance
Typically Works

Businesses can quickly obtain cash from their outstanding invoices through a method known as invoice factoring or accounts receivable loans. Here is a description of the typical procedure:

icon
Invoicing

A company provides goods or services to its customers and generates invoices with payment terms, usually 30 to 90 days.

icon
Application

The company applies for accounts receivable financing with a financial institution or a factoring company. The financing provider evaluates the creditworthiness of the company's customers rather than the company itself, as the invoices act as collateral.

icon
Verification

During the verification process, the financing provider verifies the invoices and the creditworthiness of the customers. They may conduct credit checks and assess the quality of the accounts receivable.

icon
Financing Offer

Based on the evaluation, the financing provider offers a financing arrangement, usually a percentage of the invoice value. The advance rate can vary, but it typically ranges from 85% to 90% of the invoice amount.

icon
Funding

After the approval of financing offer, the financing provider transfers the agreed-upon percentage of the invoice value to the company's bank account. This provides immediate cash flow to the company.

icon
Collection

The financing provider takes over the responsibility of collecting the payments from the customers based on the invoice terms. They may handle the entire collections process or just the payment processing, depending on the agreement.

icon
Repayment

When a customer pays an invoice, they normally send the funds straight to the finance source. The financing provider deducts their fees, which usually include a discount fee or interest, and returns the remaining amount (reserve) to the company. The reserve amount is usually between 10% to 15% of the invoice value.

Benefits of Accounts Receivable
Funding to Businesses

Cash Flow is essential for sustainability of large capital businesses. By receiving immediate cash against outstanding invoices, companies can bridge the gap between invoicing and actual receipt of payment. This helps meet operational expenses, invest in growth opportunities, or cover unforeseen costs.

It provides businesses with better control over their working capital by converting factoring accounts receivable into cash, allowing them to manage their finances more efficiently.

Accounts receivable financing is not considered a loan similar to a line of credits where monthly repayment with interest is involved. Instead, it uses the invoices as collateral, reducing the need for traditional borrowing. The company's creditworthiness is also less critical compared to other financing options.

By outsourcing the collections process to the financing provider, businesses can save time and resources that would otherwise be spent on chasing payments. This allows businesses to focus on expansion and core operations, which ultimately contributes to their overall success.

Factoring often includes additional services like collections and credit checks, while AR financing typically offers more control but may require stronger credit.

    Yes, financing receivables are generally considered a current asset if they are expected to be collected within one year. If repayment extends beyond one year, they may be classified as non-current on the balance sheet.

    Receivables financing is based on the value of your outstanding invoices, not your credit history or fixed assets. It provides more flexibility and faster access to working capital, while traditional loans often require lengthy approval processes, collateral, and fixed repayment schedules.

    Accounts receivable financing is not a traditional loan. Instead of borrowing based on your credit history or assets, you receive funding by leveraging your unpaid invoices. This allows you to convert receivables into working capital without waiting 30, 60, or 90 days for customers to pay. Unlike a loan, it doesn’t add long-term debt to your balance sheet or require extensive collateral.

    Rates typically range from 0.75% to 1.5%, depending on the quality of your accounts receivable. Factors like your industry, client credit profiles, invoice volume, and payment history are all considered. Our team evaluates your receivables to provide a tailored rate that aligns with your business and transaction structure.

    You can usually receive 85% to 90% of the total value of your eligible accounts receivable as an advance. This gives you fast access to cash tied up in invoices, helping you manage payroll, buy inventory, or cover operational expenses. The remaining balance is released after the customer pays, minus applicable fees.

    Fees generally range between 0.75% and 1.5% of the invoice value. The exact cost depends on factors like the reliability of your customer base, volume of receivables, industry risk, and structure of your financing. We offer transparent pricing with no hidden charges, so you always know the cost of capital upfront.

    • In recourse financing, your business remains responsible for repaying the advance if your customer fails to pay.
    • In non-recourse financing, EPOCH assumes the credit risk if a pre-approved customer defaults, offering added protection to your business.
