The next order doesn't have to wait behind the last one being paid.

Suppliers want paying before the stock even ships, sometimes months before a big retail or corporate customer settles the invoice on 60 or 90-day terms.

How does invoice finance work for makers and distributors?

You pay for materials or stock before you can invoice, then sell to bigger customers who settle 30 to 90 days later. FundTap funds the invoice you are waiting on, up to 90% of it, and shows the exact fee before you confirm. FundTap funds it the same day once approved, from 4%. Your customer is never contacted.

The gap

The Cashflow Squeeze for Makers and Distributors

Suppliers want paying before the stock even ships, sometimes months before a big retail or corporate customer settles the invoice on 60 or 90-day terms. FundTap funds the invoice you're waiting on, money already owed to you, brought forward on your own timing, so the next order doesn't have to wait behind the last one being paid.

Questions

Before you check eligibility.

Can makers and distributors use invoice finance?

Yes. Makers and distributors commonly use invoice finance to bridge the gap between paying for materials or stock and being paid by their customers.

Does invoice finance work for seasonal businesses?

Yes. Because FundTap has no minimum volumes or lock-in contracts, you can use it heavily during peak seasons and not at all during quiet periods.

How much can I fund?

Funding scales with your invoice volume. The more invoices you issue, the more you can fund. There is no fixed limit.

Do I need to fund all my invoices?

No. Choose individual invoices to fund based on your cashflow needs. There is no whole-ledger requirement.

Is invoice finance better than a line of credit for makers and distributors?

Invoice finance scales with your revenue and does not add debt to your balance sheet. A line of credit has a fixed limit that may not keep up with growing order volumes. Many makers and distributors find invoice finance more flexible.

How does invoice finance compare to trade finance?

Trade finance helps fund the purchase of goods before you have sold them. Invoice finance helps you access cash after you have sold goods and invoiced the customer. They address different parts of the cash conversion cycle and can be used together.
