How does invoice factoring work?

Invoice Factoring Fees

An invoice factoring provider’s fees are based on several internally-defined variables such as:

  • The volume of monthly receivables: The fees are lower for a greater volume of monthly receivables since the lender can generate economies of scale on high volumes. 
  • Size of Invoice: From a banking perspective, small-sized invoices are more favorable since they carry lower risk. The big revenues have a greater risk for a financial institution due to repayment risk being concentrated in a small group of debtors. 
  • Industry: Some industries carry more risk compared to others owing to factors such as cyclicality, seasonality and other economic problems. Higher fees will be charged on invoices from high-risk industries. 
  • The creditworthiness of a customer: Smaller businesses are considered high risk compared to corporate and government entities that have a low risk of repayment.
  • Repayment Schedules: Customers who have taken longer to repay in the past will be charged higher to cover the risk of non-payment.
