Factoring is the ongoing sale of receivables from a company's goods supplies and services against its customers to a factoring institute.

Various product variants can be distinguished depending on the characteristics of the services (financing, security, service).

In real factoring, the factor irrevocably buys the receivables

And takes the risk of default. For many years in Germany genuine factoring was offered almost without exception. Real factoring is also known as non-recourse-factoring. In open factoring, the sale of the receivables is made known to the customers of the factoring customer. In the case of silent factoring, on the other hand, the debtors have no knowledge of the sale of the receivables.

After the service has been performed, the company issues its invoice to the customer as usual. At the same time, the company sends the invoice copies to the factor using an electronic interface. The factor pays up to 90% of the amount to the factoring customer immediately after receipt of the invoice.

The factoring customer can thus have the liquidity within 24 hours.

The costs for factoring are divided into different components. How high the sum is depends on basic data such as the annual turnover, number and sum of the invoices and the creditworthiness of the company. Depending on the factoring form and type, factoring fees, interest rates and other fees are charged.

When factoring is employed, it is important that the receivables from the delivery of goods and services have been rendered in full and without dispute by the factoring customer.

After an appointment with you and subsequent offer acceptance, a credit decision will be made within two to four weeks. After this, it takes about one week for the contract to be drawn up and signed. A further two weeks can be scheduled for the subsequent operational implementation.

The factor purchases the receivables and subsequently assumes all rights and obligations generated by the receivables as well as the risk of default.
