Invoice Finance for Professional Services

The invoice is billed on completion, retainer or commission, but a council, insurer or corporate client pays to their own process, not yours. It's rarely bad debt, just a slow, process-bound payer.

How does invoice finance work for professional services firms?

Billed on completion, retainer or commission, then a council, insurer or corporate client pays to its own process. FundTap funds the single invoice you pick, this month and none the next. FundTap shows the exact fee first, then funds up to 90% within 2 hours once approved, from 4%. Your client is never contacted.

The gap

The Cashflow Challenge in Professional Services

The invoice is billed on completion, retainer or commission, but a council, insurer or corporate client pays to their own process, not yours. It's rarely bad debt, just a slow, process-bound payer. FundTap funds the one invoice you choose, money already owed to you, brought forward on your own timing, and your client is never contacted.
