How Does Accounts Receivable Factoring Work? 
The process is quick and easy. Here’s how it works:
- A company using accounts receivable factoring provides the service or product to their customers as usual.
- When it’s time to invoice the customer, the company sends the invoice to their factoring company.
- Once the invoice is received, the factoring company advances them a percentage of the value of the invoice.
- The factoring company sends the invoice to the customer, who then pays it in their standard terms.
- Once payment is made to the factoring company, the remaining invoice balance is rebated to the company, less the factoring fee.
What Are the Benefits of Accounts Receivable Factoring?
There are numerous factoring benefits. First, companies that are not eligible for traditional lending easily qualify. Factoring companies use your customer’s credit and payment history, not that of your business, to determine eligibility
