Invoice factoring for small business quickly converts receivables into cash.
Small business factoring is an excellent alternative to traditional bank loans and cash advances. Businesses selling to other companies or the government can use invoice factoring to improve their cash flow immediately. Even if you’ve had trouble qualifying for other forms of financing, invoice factoring is still a viable option.
A key benefit of factoring for small businesses is that the funding decision is based on the credit of your customers. So if your business sells to other businesses with good credit or the government, you’re a great candidate for invoice factoring.
Why Small Business Factoring is the Smart Alternative
Applying for bank loans can take months and there’s no guarantee of approval. The Small Business Administration noted that small business loan approval rates in Q1 2015 were 22% at banks and 43% at credit unions. Business credit card limits often max out well short of $100,000. This can be insufficient to cover your large projects or unexpected expenses.
On the other hand, small business factoring provides instant cash with no restrictions on its use. Factoring is NOT debt, therefore there are no limitations on how you use the funds.
