Invoice Factoring for Ship Creek businesses

If your business runs out of Ship Creek, invoice factoring turns the invoices you've already issued into working capital. The industrial flats between downtown and the waterfront, holding Anchorage's seaport, rail yard and freight terminals, where carriers, seafood handlers and distributors bill shippers and wholesalers well after cargo moves.

Alaska's wider economy runs on oil and gas, commercial fishing and federal contracting, and Ship Creek feeds into that supply chain. Approval here rests on your customers' credit rather than your own balance sheet, so younger companies in Anchorage qualify alongside established ones.

Everything is handled online and by phone — there's no branch to visit in Ship Creek, and no requirement to pledge real estate. Facilities run from $25,000 to $25 million and grow as your invoicing grows.
