Invoice finance for UK SMEs

Waiting 30, 60, or even 120 days to get paid? Invoice finance unlocks the value tied up in your unpaid invoices, giving your business fast access to working capital to keep operations running smoothly.

Ideal for UK SMEs, invoice finance allows you to release cash from outstanding invoices, without waiting for your customers to pay. Whether you’re covering payroll, investing in growth, or managing day-to-day costs, this flexible funding solution helps improve cash flow and reduce financial pressure.

With invoice finance, you maintain control of your sales ledger while gaining immediate liquidity, all without taking on additional debt. It’s a smart, scalable solution trusted by businesses across industries, including construction, manufacturing, logistics, recruitment, and professional services.

What is invoice finance, and how does it work?

Invoice finance is a popular business funding solution that helps UK companies unlock cash tied up in unpaid invoices. Instead of waiting 30, 60, or even 120 days for customers to pay, businesses can access immediate working capital by borrowing against their outstanding invoices.

This flexible finance option improves cash flow, supports day-to-day operations, and fuels business growth without taking on traditional debt.

How does invoice finance work?

When a business raises an invoice for goods or services delivered, it can submit that invoice to an invoice finance provider. The lender then advances a percentage of the invoice value (usually 70-100%) as immediate cash. Once the customer pays the invoice, the remaining balance, minus fees, is released to the business.
