The collateral-contract doctrine is a rule that says if there is a disagreement about a written contract, evidence of a second agreement (usually spoken) can be used in court if it doesn't contradict the written contract and if the information in the spoken agreement wouldn't normally be included in the written ...
The collateral contract is usually made to induce one of the parties to enter into the main contract. For example, if a person is buying a car from a dealer, the dealer may make a collateral contract with the buyer to provide a warranty for the car.

Contract financing uses open contracts you have as collateral to approve you for funding. Those contracts also then determine the amount of funding you're approved for. It's similar to invoice factoring in that the advance is based on your customer's creditworthiness, not yours.
