FAQs

Everything you need to know about how this calculator works, what the results mean, and what is included. If you need a quote or help reviewing your numbers, feel free to contact our credit analysts.
What is invoice factoring?
Invoice factoring is a way to convert unpaid invoices into cash by selling them to a factoring company for an advance, then receiving the remaining reserve minus fees after the customer pays.
How is the factoring advance calculated?
The advance is typically the invoice amount multiplied by the advance rate you select (for example, 85 percent).
What does the factoring fee mean?
The factoring fee is the cost charged by the factor for providing the advance and managing the transaction. Fees vary by customer credit, volume, industry, and payment terms.
What is “reserve” and when do I receive it?
Reserve is the portion of the invoice not advanced upfront. It is usually released after your customer pays, minus fees and any chargebacks.
Why does the effective annual rate look high?
Factoring fees are often quoted per invoice or per period, not as an annual percentage rate. When you annualize a short-term fee over 30 to 60 days, the equivalent annual rate can look much higher.
Is factoring a loan?
Factoring is generally structured as a sale of receivables rather than a traditional loan, but accounting and contract terms vary. Confirm details with your advisor and accountant.
