What is an invoice discount?

Invoice discounting gives you access to the money in your accounts receivable ledger – unpaid customer invoices – much faster. Instead of waiting for your customers to pay your invoices, you take out a short-term loan from an invoice discounting company.

What is bill discounting in simple words?

Bill Discounting is a short-term financing solution that allows businesses to convert their unpaid invoices into immediate working capital. In this process, a supplier sells their invoice or bill raised against a buyer to a financier (such as a bank or NBFC) at a discounted value before the payment due date.

What are the risks of invoice discounting?

There are some small disadvantages of invoice discounting, for example: The facility is subject to fees. You may be liable if your customer doesn't pay their invoice. Invoice Finance providers will undertake a credit check on your business, which may affect your credit rating.

How much does invoice discounting cost?

Typical fees range from 0.75% of turnover to 2.5% of turnover. For invoice discounting, fees are typically lower than for factoring because you will still collect and manage debts yourself. They generally range from 0.2% to 0.5% of turnover.

Is invoice discounting legal?

In return, the financer levies a designated commission and discount rate for their services. The Factoring Regulation Act, 2011 (Act) regulates the practice of invoice discounting, and businesses engaged in this activity are referred to as factoring businesses.

How risky is invoice discounting?

The major risk associated with invoice discounting is the credit risk or the probability that the buyer fails to pay. In invoice discounting, a discounting provider advances funds according to the value of the invoice. If the buyer fails to pay, it results in the loss of the company or lender.

What is invoice discounting?

An invoice discounting company lends you the value of the raised invoices, minus a small percentage, after verifying that the invoices are valid. Your customers pay you according to your normal payment terms (it's your responsibility to chase late invoice payments – you remain the credit controller).

What do you like best?

I love how easy it is to send out contracts to my clients. I've only had one or two clients not know how to use airSlate SignNow when they receive the email from me. When I encountered that I used airSlate SignNow's helpful links to send to my client to help them understand how to use airSlate SignNow and hence sign the contract! I also love the app so that I make access the signed contracts when traveling for business.

What do you like best?

Much easier to have electronic copies of sales contracts - no more paper. My products are often shipped so many times do not see clients face to face. This enables me to still have a valid signed contract.
