Invoice Finance
Invoice finance releases capital tied up in unpaid customer invoices to fund business strategies and improve cash flow.
What is invoice finance?
Invoice finance is the umbrella term for a type of funding that provides fast access to cash tied up in your outstanding customer invoices.
It's an alternative solution to traditional types of business finance and is much more flexible than an overdraft or loan.
With our invoice finance product, invoice discounting, you maintain responsibility for managing collections, so the facility is entirely confidential.
How does invoice discounting work?
All you have to do is raise the invoice and we’ll give you up to 90% of the cash owed to you straight away, enabling you to keep your business moving without waiting to be paid. When your customer settles the invoice, the remaining percentage is returned to you, less an agreed fee.
