PO Financing for Crystal businesses

A northwestern suburb built around a general aviation airport, where fabricators, aviation services and building trades invoice commercial operators and contractors on accounts settled weeks after delivery. National Invoice Factoring provides purchase order financing to Crystal businesses, advancing up to 100% of supplier costs so payroll, materials and growth aren't gated by your customers' payment terms.

Minnesota's wider economy runs on medical devices, food companies and distribution, and Crystal feeds into that supply chain. Approval here rests on your customers' credit rather than your own balance sheet, so younger companies across the Minneapolis metro qualify alongside established ones.

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

How it works in Crystal

  1. 1.Win the order. You receive a purchase order from a creditworthy commercial or government customer.
  2. 2.We pay your supplier. We issue payment or a letter of credit directly to your supplier for up to 100% of the cost.
  3. 3.Goods are delivered. Your supplier ships to your customer, and you invoice upon delivery.
  4. 4.Settle and keep the margin. Your customer pays, we deduct our fees, and you keep the profit.
