HSBC Invoice Discounting
HSBC Invoice Discounting product is provided to you either on the basis of invoice discounting or factoring. In both cases, HSBC agree to purchase your debts (apart from excluded debts) and will, subject to the terms of the purchase set out in their agreement with you, make a prepayment available to you of a percentage of the value of the debt (typically 80-90%). The remaining balance, less our charges, is available to you after we have received the payment from your customer.
The availability of this funding improves your cash flow as you will not have to wait for your invoices to be paid and have cash available to reinvest in your business. Fees and charges apply which are payable by you.
Invoice discounting is an undisclosed facility. The customers are not ordinarily aware of our involvement under this arrangement and will continue to pay you, although payments will be made in to a designated account. You are responsible for the credit collection for the debts HSBC have purchased from you under this arrangement.
Invoice Discounting releases cash from your invoices next working day. Here’s a quick overview of how it works:
- You provide the goods/services to your customers and invoice them as usual
- You let us know the value of the invoices you raise
- We advance up to 90% of your invoices’ value by the next working day
- You collect payment when your invoices fall due
- Once your customers pay, you keep the balance minus our charges
The whole process is quick, easy – and it can all be managed online.
