What are Invoice Factoring Services?
It’s no secret that cash flow is the lifeblood of every business. Our invoice factoring services turn your accounts receivables (invoices) into cash flow by eliminating the waiting period while your invoices are paid. This process works for companies with a business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-government (B2G) model.
This provides businesses with the opportunity to have consistent cash flow for ongoing operations and additional cash reserves to fund growth opportunities. For many businesses, maintaining enough cash can be difficult, especially if a business is young or experiencing rapid growth.
United Capital Funding provides help to these businesses through payroll funding services and invoice factoring services which gives them working capital quickly.
How Invoice Factoring Services Work
Selling invoices owed by another business or government entity to a third-party buyer (a Factor); invoice factoring services are one way to fund your business.

How Accounts Receivables Factoring Works

Accounts Receivable Factoring vs. Traditional Bank Line of Credit
- Invoice factoring services focus on the credit worthiness of your customers, not your company.
- Unlike a typical bank loan, factoring clients are not subject to tightening credit availability due to credit cycles, economic volatility or market fluctuations.
- Traditional bank loans have restrictive covenants on net worth, leverage, profitability, dividends and other restrictions, which inhibit sales growth.
- Typical bank loans focus on the strength of the balance sheet, the profit and loss statement and cash flow of your company.
- Factoring de-leverages your balance sheet.
- Getting set up with United Capital is quick, free and with no long approval process.
