What is Accounts Receivable Factoring?
Accounts Receivable Factoring is a financial transaction where your business sells its outstanding invoices to a factoring company at a discount. This process provides you with immediate cash, allowing you to meet your business needs without waiting for your customers to pay their invoices.
Typically, businesses that operate on credit terms, such as those in the construction or transportation industries, utilize factoring to enhance their cash flow. Our factoring solutions help you convert your accounts receivable into cash swiftly, ensuring your operations remain smooth and uninterrupted.
Benefits of Accounts Receivable Factoring
Leveraging A/R factoring offers several advantages for businesses across various industries. Here are some key benefits:
- Immediate Cash Flow: Access funds quickly without waiting for customer payments.
- Credit Risk Management: Transfer the risk of non-payment to the factoring company.
- Flexible Financing: Use the funds for various business needs without restrictions.
- No Additional Debt: Non-recourse factoring doesn’t add to your liabilities.
These benefits are especially valuable for businesses in high-growth sectors like high tech and retail, where maintaining a steady cash flow is crucial for scaling operations.
How Accounts Receivable Factoring Works
Our factoring process is straightforward and designed to get you the cash you need with minimal delay:
- Submit your outstanding invoices to Canada Business Loan Experts.
- Once approved, receive an advance on the invoice value, typically ranging from 70% to 90%.
- The factoring company collects payment directly from your customers.
- You receive the remaining balance, minus the factoring fees, once the invoice is paid.
This process ensures that you have access to the necessary funds to cover your business expenses, whether you’re operating out of Edmonton, Ottawa, or any other Canadian city.
Types of Accounts Receivable Factoring
We offer various factoring options to suit your specific business needs:
Recourse vs. Non-Recourse Factoring
Recourse factoring means your business remains liable if a customer fails to pay the invoice. Non-recourse factoring transfers this risk to the factoring company, offering greater protection against non-payment.
Notification vs. Non-Notification
In notification factoring, your customers are informed about the factoring arrangement, while in non-notification factoring, they remain unaware. This flexibility allows you to maintain your preferred level of customer communication.
Spot vs. Regular Factoring
Spot factoring is used for single transactions, ideal for occasional cash flow needs. Regular factoring involves an ongoing relationship with a set limit, suitable for businesses with consistent invoicing.
Accounts Receivable Factoring vs. Traditional Loans
When comparing A/R factoring to traditional operating lines of credit, several key differences stand out. Here’s a comparison to help you decide which option is best for your business:
| Feature | A/R Factoring | Traditional Loans |
|---|---|---|
| Interest Rates | 1.5%-3% per month | 4%-9% annually |
| Duration | 30-90 days | Typically longer terms with annual reviews |
| Loan-to-Value | 75%-90% of invoice value | Up to 75% of good accounts receivable |
| Flexibility | Few restrictions on fund usage | Typically for general working capital |
As illustrated, factoring provides faster access to funds with higher advance rates, making it an attractive option for businesses needing immediate cash flow in cities like Toronto and Montreal.
