Stoke-on-Trent FAQs
Common questions about invoice finance in Stoke-on-Trent
Are there concentration limits?+
Yes — most facilities cap exposure to any one customer at 25–40% of the ledger. We'll structure with realistic limits for your debtor mix.
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.
Can I finance just one invoice?+
Yes — selective and spot invoice finance lets you fund individual invoices on demand. Useful for occasional large invoices or one-off cashflow needs.
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.
How long does it take to go live?+
Most Stoke-on-Trent facilities go live in 2–4 weeks. Simpler structures and smaller facilities can complete faster.
Can a Stoke-on-Trent construction business use invoice finance?+
Yes — construction-specific facilities accommodate retentions, applications for payment and CIS deductions, but only specialist funders. We'll route accordingly.
