In exchange, the factor provides your business with a significant portion of the invoice&#8217;s value upfront, typically 70-90%. The factor then assumes responsibility for collecting payment from your customers. Once the customer pays the invoice, the factor will give you the remaining balance minus their fees.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Invoice factoring is ideal for businesses that need quick access to cash and want to offload the burden of managing collections.
