How Factoring Works

Let’s help you get back to a healthy balance sheet.

You want to grow your business. Your ideas and customer / supplier stakeholders are ready but your balance sheet is not. Unfortunately, there is too much money tied up in accounts receivable. There is work that you’ve completed or product you’ve already shipped, you’re just waiting to get paid. Start accessing these funds through factoring with Liquid Capital.

What is invoice factoring?

Factoring is an alternative form of financing ideally suited to small and medium-sized businesses, especially enterprises that do not have a long and established banking record with a major lender. In financial circles, there is a popular saying: “a bank only gives you money when you don’t need it.” That’s because banks operate on a line-based financing model based on what your business has already done and the assets you currently own.

Factoring is an innovative way for your business to access the funds you have tied up in accounts receivable.
Liquid Capital effectively purchases your outstanding invoices and advances you up to 85% of the value. We then collect the funds from your client on your behalf and transfer the remaining balance to you, less applicable fees.

Think of your growing business like you’re driving a car. Major banks look in the rearview mirror – where you have been and what you have today. By comparison, factoring is all about looking through the windshield at where you’re going, and all the opportunities you have on the road ahead. At Liquid Capital, we look at where your business is going and give you the liquidity you need to get there faster, easier and with greater confidence.

Here’s how it works:

• Fill out this simple form to get started (no credit checks or registrations are required or executed at this point), or call your closest Liquid Capital office and speak directly with your local Liquid Capital Principal
• Once your optimal solution has been identified, you’ll be asked to complete a more detailed application
• Liquid Capital’s underwriters will perform due diligence, such as a customer credit check and opportunity analysis
• If your business and accounts receivable clients are all in good standing, we’ll approve you for factoring and will advance your business up to 85% of the value of your invoices
• We’ll collect payment from your customer (we have a customer-friendly process for this that protects your relationship and standing) and we’ll pay you the remainder of the balance (less applicable fees)
• You’ll always have full visibility into the process, with ongoing easy access to funds
