Marketing Company Invoice Factoring

Factoring Services for Advertising and Marketing Companies

Media Clients Pay Slow. Turn 30-90 Day Invoices into Working Capital.

Marketing Company Factoring Summary

Marketing firms and advertising agencies provide strategy and lead generation for businesses. Managing advertising fees, video production, social media, and content management is very costly. Marketing companies need consistent cash flow to meet each account’s financial requirements since their customers do not pay for 30-90 days.

Your company can achieve your financing goals by selling unpaid invoices. Also called invoice factoring, this is a service that provides working capital without the hassle of traditional loans or debt. Marketing company factoring can help you accelerate growth by eliminating the wait for customer payment.

What is factoring in marketing finance?

Factoring invoices is the practice of selling accounts receivable (A/R) for business funding. Most agencies extend 30 to 60 credit terms, which means your company waits up to 60 days for payment. Financing one to two months of operations, payroll, and expenses require cash reserves or working capital.

How much does factoring invoices cost?

Factoring rates start from .9% to 4% of your total receivable value, depending on how quickly your customers pay. Reading your factoring agreement to understand what fees your company charges is essential. Your factoring rate, discount rate, and any fees make your total factoring cost. Also, it is vital to see if your company includes bad debt protection – this is called Non-recourse factoring.

Non-recourse or without recourse factoring companies, like Bankers Factoring, provide credit protection if your customer falls in these categories:

Bankers Factoring Bad Debt Protection Covers:
