Crews and gear for construction sites
The business supplies labour and equipment to construction work across Waikato and Bay of Plenty.
In labour hire the crews are paid as they work. The client pays for the month’s work once the month is over.
More crews out, the same month-end wait
The owner was building the business up, with crews out on site at the same time. Every crew on site is wages going out before the client’s month-end payment comes in, and growing means more of that, not less.
When they signed up, the owner told the FundTap team they were trying to expand, with crews out on site and the client paying at month end.
Funding an invoice in December
They signed up in December 2025 on their accountant’s introduction, connected Xero and chose one invoice to fund. The fee was there before they committed.
The client still pays the business at month end, on its own terms.
Crews paid, the client on its own terms
With that invoice funded, the crews’ pay for the work already on site didn’t have to wait for the client’s month-end payment. That’s the room a labour-hire business needs to grow: more crews out, without each one waiting on the last month’s payment.
That December invoice is the only one they’ve funded so far. With no ongoing fees, the account has been there through 2026 without costing a thing, and they pay only on the invoices they fund.
The timeline
- December 2025 Signed up on their accountant’s introduction, with crews out on site and the client paying at month end.
- December 2025 Connected Xero to bring the invoices across.
- December 2025 Funded their first invoice in December, with crews out on site.
In numbers
- Month end when the client pays for the month’s work
- 1 invoice funded, in December 2025, their first month
- 2 crews out on site when they signed up, with more to come
Sound like your business?
Your crews are on site now and the client pays once the month is done. Fund the invoice that bridges the two, and only when you need to.
Pay your team on time, every time, without waiting on your client.
