Factoring
Bridging the gap between customers settling invoices and payments being made to suppliers has caused problems to business for many years. Extending credit is an essential part of any business, but in order to grow a business and make cash flow more stable, invoice finance is an essential tool. Tandem Invoice Finance offers a professional invoice factoring service that can be tailored to your business needs.
