Invoice Finance
Waiting for customers to pay their invoices can put pressure on your cash flow, especially when you have day-to-day expenses to cover or plans to grow your business.
At SMH Group, our experienced commercial finance brokers can help you explore invoice finance solutions that give you access to money tied up in unpaid customer invoices, rather than having to wait for payment.
Whether you’re managing everyday running costs, dealing with longer payment terms or looking to support business growth, we’ll help you understand your business invoice finance options.
With access to an extensive network of lenders, we can guide you through the different arrangements and help you find a suitable funding solution for your business.
What Types of Invoice Finance Are Available?
There are different ways to access funding against unpaid invoices, depending on how your business operates, your customers’ payment terms and whether you want to manage payment collections yourself.
Our commercial finance brokers can help you explore options including:
Invoice Factoring: A finance provider advances a proportion of the value of your outstanding invoices and usually takes responsibility for collecting payments from your customers.
Invoice Discounting: Access funding against unpaid invoices while generally keeping control of your customer relationships and payment collections.
Selective Invoice Finance: Release funds against specific eligible invoices rather than your entire sales ledger, depending on lender availability and eligibility requirements.
We’ll explain how each option works, including any fees and conditions, so you can make an informed decision about what’s right for your business.
How Can Business Invoice Finance Support Your Company?
When customers take 30, 60 or 90 days to pay, it can leave your business waiting for money you’ve already earned. Business invoice finance can help bridge that gap by giving you earlier access to funds from outstanding invoices.
This can make it easier to cover everyday running costs, pay suppliers and keep your business running smoothly while waiting for customer payments.
Invoice financing can also be useful when your business is growing. As sales increase, you may need more working capital to manage larger orders, additional staff or rising operational costs before customers have paid.
By releasing money tied up in unpaid invoices, you can improve cash flow, manage longer payment terms and have greater flexibility to plan ahead.
