Recourse Factoring
Invoice factoring offers a variety of benefits, such as improving your cash flow for fuel costs, insurance expense, truck payments, driver pay and allowing your fleet to take on more business. Partnering with a factoring company will also provide back-office support that manages the billing and collections process for your loads.
Factoring companies also provide assistance if a debtor fails to pay an invoice. While the specific terms of your agreement may vary between companies, a recourse freight factoring agreement is an affordable way to improve cash flow and receive assistance if a debtor fails to complete payment.
What Is Recourse Factoring?
If your trucking company has a recourse factoring agreement, you’re responsible for buying back all unpaid invoices after a pre-determined period which is typically 60 or 90 days after the invoice date.
With a recourse factoring program, the carrier takes the credit risk on their customers. This allows the factoring company to provide a more reduced pricing option for the carrier which will be more affordable and improve cash flow.
Choosing a recourse factoring company is an ideal option if you have an established relationship with your customers and there are no payment issues. Factoring companies can also perform credit checks on all current and prospective customers to provide further protection.
