How much does invoice factoring cost in California?

Pricing in California is the same as everywhere we lend: typically 1%–3.5% per 30 days. Your exact rate depends on monthly volume, your customers' credit and average days-to-pay.

What size Alameda businesses do you fund?

We fund Alameda companies with facilities from $25,000 to $25 million, from owner-operators and startups to mid-market firms with eight-figure revenue.

Do I need good credit to qualify in Alameda?

Not necessarily. Approval is based mostly on the creditworthiness of your customers and the quality of your invoices or purchase orders, not your personal credit score.

Which Alameda industries use invoice factoring most?

In the Alameda area we see strong demand from import/export, apparel, tech & services, food & bev companies, along with professional services and B2B suppliers.

Will my Alameda customers know I'm using invoice factoring?

It depends on the structure. Traditional factoring sends your customers a notice of assignment directing payment to a lockbox. Confidential, non-notification facilities are available to qualifying Alameda businesses — ask your advisor which your file supports.

Is there a long-term contract or minimum volume?

Not on our spot programs — you can finance a single invoice. Full-ledger facilities carry a term and a monthly minimum in exchange for a lower rate. Both options are quoted side by side so you can compare them before signing.

What happens if a Alameda customer pays late or not at all?

Under a recourse facility you repurchase the invoice or swap it for another after an agreed number of days. Under non-recourse, we absorb the loss if an approved customer becomes insolvent — though commercial disputes over quality or delivery are excluded from both.

Apparel scenario

Apparel brand funds a department-store program

Challenge: An overseas mill required a deposit before cutting, months before the retailer's net-90 invoice would pay.
Solution: PO financing issued a letter of credit to the mill, then converted to factoring on shipment.
Outcome: The season shipped complete and the brand kept its retail slot.
