Selective Factoring

We have recently been contacted by a company offering spot invoice discounting. I was very excited as we often get requests from businesses looking to discount a single invoice on a confidential basis. I thought that this was the solution.

In essence it is badged up as invoice discounting because the client does the credit control. In fairness the same could be said about spot factoring. The credit control is also done by the client. In both spot factoring and spot invoice discounting the customer/debtor is required to pay the lender directly.

Unfortunately, to my knowledge there is not confidential spot factoring or spot invoice discounn available as I type.

If anyone know different please let us know.

 

Selective factoring was recently set up by Smart Factoring Quotes for a security company based just outside Chester in the North West of England. They had landed a large contract worth over £400,000 over 3 months. They had to invoice monthly on 90 day terms and yet they were paying their security staff weekly.

They approached with a view to spot factoring the 3 individual invoices. We looked at their options and found that selective factoring was by far and away a cheaper option. Selective factoring means that you factor all the invoices of a particular debtor whereas spot factoring means you can pick and choose individual invoices. The difference in this instance is subtle but the difference in cost was dramatic.

Selective factoring worked out almost 10 times cheaper in this instance. The facility will allow our client to take on a lucrative contract and meet it’s weekly wage demands. Profits will be increased because of the selective factoring facility.
