Invoice factoring, also known as accounts receivable financing is a method used by businesses to convert sales on credit terms for immediate cash flow. Invoice factoring has become the preferred financial tool in obtaining flexible working capital for businesses of all sizes.
With accounts receivable financing, the receivable credit line is determined by the financial strength of the customer (buyer), not the client (the seller of the receivables).
By doing so, businesses can support growth, manage operational expenses, and focus on expanding without the delays of long payment cycles.
After your application is approved, the next step is to set-up your account. It takes 3 to 5 business days to get your account up and funded with our accounts receivable financing program. Once your account is approved, we can fund the invoices and advance you the funds in 24 hours.
Unlike other accounts receivable financing companies, 1st Commercial Credit makes receivable financing easy to obtain with minimal paperwork.
Our decisions are not based on financials, tax returns or even equity to debt ratios. We make decisions primarily on the invoicing process and the credit strength of the account debtor (buyer).
Our clients can enjoy the benefits of our prompt service and begin to use their funds within days of completing the application.
We realize that financing the growth of your business can be a challenge. Newly developed or established businesses selling on credit terms will eventually need more working capital due to growth. If your credit sales to commercial accounts have created a cash flow shortage in your business, then your company will benefit the most by utilizing our invoice factoring service. Business owners realize that there is no need to borrow money from a bank in order to offer credit terms to customers when utilizing factoring companies.
Businesses that sell on credit terms have a hidden asset that most owners do not realize can be used for collateral. 1st Commercial Credit specializes in collateralizing and financing accounts receivable. The receivables are pledged as collateral and the business may draw cash against the eligible accounts receivable at any time. Accounts receivable factoring is not a loan, so there is no need to make payments or add debt to your business.
Our financing programs can accommodate companies with seasonal or uneven sales patterns or start-up operations with no financial base to rely upon. Any business can qualify for receivable financing if it generates sales on open credit terms to customers with financial credit strength. Most of our clients are trying to find a solution to finance their growth or whose past earnings will not justify a traditional loan or credit line increase.
Every industry is evaluated differently because no industry invoices the same method. Not all factoring companies accept every industry. As a rule of thumb, your business must sell to a good credit worthy account debtor (customer), a receivable or invoice that can be verified or has an acceptance (signed off) by the account debtor. Receivable financing is available to all industries that provide services, or deliver products to commercial accounts. The sale must be "final sale" with no contingencies or disputes. The service or product must be completely delivered in order for an invoice (receivable) to be eligible for funding.
Manufacturing companies, service providers, and even startups use invoice factoring to compete effectively in their markets, maintain positive cash flow, and offer extended payment terms to customers. By doing so, businesses can support growth, manage operational expenses, and focus on expanding without the delays of long payment cycles.
