We know that waiting for the payment of invoices can have a huge burden on your business. Invoice Financing can solve the problem by getting early payment on invoices. Funding providers may offer payment of up to 98% of your unpaid invoices. You can select individual invoices that you want to finance or get financing for your full sales ledger. You can receive money within a day, meaning you don’t have to wait weeks or even months for outstanding payments, helping any immediate cashflow problems and giving you the opportunity to focus on what’s important – growing business.

The information above shows the terms typically associated with Invoice Finance. Your terms will depend on your own situation
To apply for invoice finance, you must be trading for more than three months. Typically, your revenue must be equal to, or more than £100,000 per year, although there are new providers that only require £40,000 per year. It’s particularly suited for businesses that are fast growing because the access to finance grows with turnover.
You don’t need to have a perfect credit record, but your customers should have a good track-record of paying suppliers.
You’ll need to share the details on the value of outstanding invoices or upload your sales ledger.
A personal guarantee – an agreement that means a director takes on a certain level of personal responsibility for the debt through their own finances/assets - is sometimes required.
