Freight Broker Financing Options
Boost Your Freight Brokerage with Factoring Solutions
Are you a freight broker or trucker looking to grow your business? Discover how freight factoring can fuel your expansion.
Owning a freight brokerage can be both rewarding and profitable. However, managing cash flow is crucial, as you're often caught between paying drivers promptly and waiting on clients who may take up to 60 days to settle their invoices.
Traditional business loans aren't always the answer. Banks typically lend to companies with strong histories, leaving startups or those with great future potential in a bind. This is where factoring companies step in.
Factoring companies specialize in supporting businesses with limited histories but promising futures. By factoring your freight bills, you can transform the usual 30 to 60-day payment wait into just two days. This quick access to cash allows you to pay drivers and cover other business expenses seamlessly.
Unlike business loans with set limits, factoring is flexible and scales with your sales. The more you sell, the more financing you can access.
How Factoring Works
1. Submit Freight Bills: Provide copies of your freight bills to the factoring company.
2. Advance Payment: Receive 90% to 98% of the bill amount. A small reserve may be held.
3. Immediate Access: Use the funds right away while the factor waits for payment from your client.
4. Reserve Rebate: Once your customer pays the bill, any held reserve is returned to you.
Factoring costs vary based on three factors: your monthly financed volume, your customers' creditworthiness, and the time it takes for the bills to be paid. Typically, rates range from 1.6% to 3% per month.
Not all factoring companies offer services specifically for freight brokers, but those that do can help you surpass your business goals. With freight factoring, you'll gain the financial agility needed to elevate your brokerage.
