Lancaster FAQs
Common questions about invoice finance in Lancaster
Is invoice finance suitable for my sector?+
Most B2B sectors qualify — manufacturing, hauliers, recruiters, wholesalers, professional services, distribution. Some sectors (construction, retail) need specialist funders.
What if a customer doesn't pay?+
Without bad-debt protection, the unpaid invoice is recourse — you'd repay the advance. With protection, the funder takes the loss within agreed limits.
How is it different from a bank overdraft?+
Invoice finance scales with sales — the more you invoice, the more you can draw. An overdraft is a fixed limit that doesn't grow with you.
Can I switch invoice finance providers?+
Yes — switching is routine, often to reduce cost or improve service. We arrange takeovers from existing facilities regularly.
Are there minimum turnover requirements?+
Most facilities want £100k+ annual turnover; selective single-invoice facilities can go lower.
What happens if my sales drop?+
Funding scales with the ledger, so drawing reduces. Minimum fees typically apply. We'll factor seasonality in when structuring.
