York FAQs
Common questions about invoice finance in York
What is bad-debt protection?+
Optional cover that protects you if a customer becomes insolvent. Typically adds 0.3–0.6% to the service fee. Worth it for concentrated debtor books.
How long does it take to go live?+
Most York facilities go live in 2–4 weeks. Simpler structures and smaller facilities can complete faster.
Will I need a personal guarantee?+
Usually yes — director PGs are standard, though scope and capping vary. We'll explain before you sign.
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.
Are FX-denominated invoices fundable?+
Yes — most major lenders fund USD, EUR and GBP invoices. Other currencies via specialist providers.
What does it cost?+
Two main charges: a service fee (0.5–3% of turnover) and a discount fee on funds drawn (typically base + 2–4%). We'll model the all-in annual cost on your real numbers.
