If your business, or your client’s, is growing fast but waiting too long to get paid, invoice discounting could be the smart, discreet solution to keep cash flowing and momentum high.
At its core, invoice discounting allows businesses to release up to 90% of the value of their unpaid invoices within 24 hours — all without handing over control of customer relationships.
How It Works
You issue your invoice as normal.
Your invoice finance provider advances up to 90% of the value immediately.
You continue to chase and collect payments from your customer.
When the invoice is paid, the remaining balance (minus a small fee) is released to you.
It’s fast, confidential, and keeps credit control in your hands — ideal for businesses with an established in-house finance function or trusted customer relationships.
Key Benefits of Invoice Discounting
No need to wait 30, 60 or 90 days for customers to pay
Discreet and confidential — customers don’t need to know
Control stays with you — you manage collections
Scales with your business — more sales = more available funding
Can reduce reliance on overdrafts or loans
