What Is Invoice Factoring and How Can Single Point Help Houston Businesses?
For many small and mid-sized Houston businesses, waiting 30, 60, or even 90 days to receive client payments can create serious cash flow challenges. Invoice factoring, also called invoice financing, provides a practical solution by turning unpaid invoices into immediate working capital.
What Is Invoice Factoring (Invoice Financing)?
Invoice factoring is a financial service that allows businesses to sell their unpaid invoices to a factoring company in exchange for quick cash. Unlike a traditional loan, invoice factoring is not debt—you’re selling your invoices at a small discount to gain immediate access to funds.
This process helps businesses maintain steady cash flow, cover operational expenses, pay employees on time, and invest in growth opportunities without waiting for customers payments.
How Does Invoice Factoring Work?
The process of invoice factoring is simple:
Provide products or services and issue an invoice to your customer.
Submit the invoice to a factoring company like Single Point Capital.
Receive same-day funding (typically 80–99% of the invoice value).
The factoring company collects payment from your customer on the invoice due date.
By turning accounts receivable into working capital, businesses can manage finances more efficiently and focus on growth.
Benefits of Invoice Factoring for Houston Businesses
Invoice factoring and invoice financing offer several advantages:
Immediate Cash Flow – Get paid the same day to cover expenses like payroll, inventory, operational costs, and more.
No Debt – Unlike traditional loans, factoring does not create liabilities on your balance sheet.
Flexible Funding – Factor only the invoices you choose, giving your business financial control.
Credit Protection – Factoring companies often perform credit checks on customers to minimize non-payment risk.
Business Growth – Access to fast funding allows Houston businesses to invest in expansion, marketing, and new opportunities.
