What is Invoice Financing?
Invoice Financing allows you to get access to the money owed to you by your customers while you wait for them to pay your invoices. It helps you manage your cash flow by bridging the gap between issuing an invoice and receiving payment. A typical invoice finance facility would provide the borrower up to 95% of the unpaid invoice(s) amount. Then, when you receive payment from your customer, the advance provided by the lender is settled, and you receive the balance (after charges). Interest is generally only charged during the outstanding period.
Eligibility for Invoice Financing
To be eligible for Cash Flow Finance you generally need to:
- Have an active ABN
- Proof of an outstanding invoice to another Australian business
- Proof you have delivered against the invoice
Other criteria may apply depending on your current situation and needs. Book a meeting with our expert team to talk through your requirements and timeframes, and we can work out the best way for you to move forward.
