Factoring fees vary based on factors like invoice volume, customer creditworthiness, and industry risk, but typically range from 1% to 5% of the invoice amount. Some key pricing factors include:
- The advance rate (percentage of the invoice paid upfront, usually 80-90%).
- The factoring fee structure (flat fee vs. tiered rates).
- The length of time it takes for the customer to pay.
- Additional services such as credit checks, collections, and back-office support.
Factoring is often more cost-effective than traditional financing because it provides fast cash without taking on debt.
