Invoice Factoring for West Side Flats businesses

West Side Flats sits inside one of St. Paul's working commercial districts. A riverfront industrial area across the Mississippi from downtown, mixing manufacturers, distributors and barge-served businesses that ship to commercial buyers and carry receivables through the regional construction and shipping seasons. We fund companies there with invoice factoring, typically same day to 24 hours.

Minnesota's wider economy runs on medical devices, food companies and distribution, and West Side Flats feeds into that supply chain. Approval here rests on your customers' credit rather than your own balance sheet, so younger companies in St. Paul qualify alongside established ones.

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