What is invoice finance?

Invoice finance may help Australian businesses access funds against eligible unpaid invoices. It can be useful where customers take 30, 60 or 90 days to pay but the business needs cash for wages, stock, suppliers or operating expenses.

This type of finance is often considered by businesses with business-to-business invoices, repeat customers and clear payment terms. The invoice quality and debtor profile can matter.

Loanster can help you start an enquiry and understand whether invoice finance, a working capital loan or a line of credit may be more suitable.

Invoice finance is funding that may allow eligible Australian businesses to access cash linked to unpaid customer invoices before those invoices are paid.

A profitable business can still feel cash pressure if customers pay slowly. Invoice finance can help close the gap between issuing invoices and receiving payment.

The cost and structure depend on the lender, invoice value, customer profile, invoice age and facility terms.
