Using single invoice finance from Cash for Invoices Limited

1/5/2018

 
Selling an invoice to Cash for Invoices LimitedBefore the debtor defaults, the company can sell the invoice to a company such as Cash for Invoices Limited that will offer to buy just one invoice when the company wants to sell.  There is no commitment for the company to sell, and no commitment for Cash for Invoices Limited to buy.  The company wants to exchange an invoice for cash - perhaps it needs the cash sooner than the invoice payment date.

Cash for Invoices Limited will make an offer after conducting due diligence on the selling company and on the debtor especially.  The debtor is a key concern for Cash for Invoices Limited because if there is a subsequent default then Cash for Invoices Limited will not require the seller to buyback the invoice.  The sale is therefore non-recourse and Cash for Invoices Limited has to suffer the consequences of a default.  It will commence steps to recover the debt.  These can include issuing letters for payment, appointing a solicitor, making a court claim, or making a claim under a credit insurance policy.  

Retention to mitigate credit risk
To mitigate the potential costs of trying to recover payment on an invoice that Cash for Invoices Limited purchased but which goes into default, Cash for Invoices Limited will retain up to 10% of the value of that invoice from the purchase price.  If there is no default (the debtor pays the invoice on time and in full) then Cash for Invoices Limited will pay the retention to the seller when the debtor pays the invoice.

Features of single invoice finance offered by Cash for Invoices Limited

What is single invoice finance?
Cash for Invoices Limited offers single invoice finance (sometimes called spot factoring or selective invoice finance)  - a type of debt factoring that has key advantages over conventional debt factoring and invoice finance:
  • NO   security.  No debenture or personal guarantee is provided by the invoice seller.  This makes the funding process less complicated, less expensive, and quicker to complete for the seller
  • NO   commitment to sell an invoice. The seller has no obligation to sell its entire sales ledger to the funder.  The seller might be flush with cash at times yet with debt factoring it is forced to take funds from the factoring company, and pay associated costs of the facility.  This is inefficient and undesirable.  Single invoice finance from Cash for Invoices Limited requires no commitment so is far more efficient as a source of funds - used only when the seller wants funding.  Because there is no ongoing funding, associated costs are avoided.
  • Almost all types   of businesses eligible.  Cash for Invoices Limited is available for many types of organisation.  In addition to limited companies, this includes LLPs, charities, social enterprises and academic institutions.  Single invoice finance from Cash for Invoices Limited opens up a new source of alternative finance for these organisations that might have found it difficult to find funding from other sources.
  • Sell just one   invoice.  Since no facility is set up and no commitment is required to sell its entire sales ledger, the seller may sell just one invoice, and whenever it chooses.  With single invoice finance from Cash for Invoices Limited, the seller is in control of funding not the factoring company or bank lender.
  • One   fee only  Since no facility is created with single invoice finance from Cash for Invoices Limited, there are no ongoing costs of financing nor none of the associated set up or termination costs
  • No recourse   (beyond retention) if the invoice debtor defaults  If the debtor fails to pay on time, some factoring companies sell the invoice back to the seller and demand a return of money it gave to purchase the invoice.  Once an invoice, Cash for Invoices Limited retains credit risk
  • Credit protection included   - some funders add a charge if the seller wants to completely transfer the risk of default by the debtor.  Single invoice finance from Cash for Invoices Limited does not charge extra for credit protection.
