Invoice finance can rates can be structured in different ways. It’s becoming more common for rates to be structured to a line fee which is a percentage of your limit and an interest rate, similar to how a bank overdraft would be structured. More traditionally, costs for invoice financing can include a small fee based on the invoice value and the duration the invoice remains unpaid. Fees vary significantly by provider, so it’s important you have a clear understanding of the different structures so you can compare different lenders accurately.

The risk to your business is minimal compared to other forms of financing, as there is no need to provide security beyond the invoices themselves.
