How Temporary Staffing Factoring Works

Every staffing agency needs access to cash in order to overcome the challenges associated with consistently funding payroll. And for staffing companies experiencing growth, the importance of reliable access to capital is even greater. This is why many temporary staffing agencies finance their payroll through factoring companies.

What is Temporary Staffing Factoring?

Staffing factoring is a way that staffing agencies, which ordinarily have to wait 30 to 60 days to receive payment from a customer, can turn their accounts receivable into instant cash. With this reliable access to working capital, your staffing company has the tools it needs to fund payroll today and focus on future growth tomorrow.

Staffing Factoring Companies

Temporary staffing factoring companies purchase your invoices and advance you money within 24 hours. The advance rate varies by your customer’s credit histories and few other criteria. Factoring companies consider your customer’s ability to pay, not yours. The biggest attraction to staffing factoring is not being held captive by slow-paying customers. Accounts receivable factoring lets you turn your invoices into cash that can immediately be used to meet payroll and fund growth.

How to Choose your Staffing Factoring Company

Not all staffing factoring companies are created equal. Some rely on financing from outside sources. These factoring companies do not have access to their own pool of cash and must partner with a bank and pay that bank for access to their capital. Then there are factoring companies which are integrated within banks. These types of factoring companies are direct lenders and do not have to rely on financing from outside sources. These “bank-backed” factoring companies offer a wider variety of customer solutions and more funding capacity than traditional, non-bank-affiliated factoring companies. Bank-backed factoring companies also enjoy a lower cost of funds than the majority of their competitors. This lower cost is passed on to their clients in the form of lower fees. As a result, bank-backed factoring companies offer the most competitive rates in the industry.
