Invoice discounting is an alternative method to factoring of drawing money against a business’s invoices
- The invoice discounter will first check the business by carrying out a mini audit if the firms customers and accounts systems.
- After the audit has been passed the invoice discounting company set up a facility which provides a draw down facility to gain access to percentage of the total sale each month.
- Every month or week the invoice discounter is notified of the details of the invoices in raised
- The invoice discounter requests weekly or monthly electronic bulk downloads sales books or invoice information
- On receipt of a sale and invoice information the invoice discounter will make funds available at the agreed percentage rate
- The business can then draw down on funds made available.
- As cash is received from debtors it is paid to the invoice discounter.
- The process is continuous, generating cash availability to the client
