FAQ
A factoring contract establishes the legal relationship between your business and the factor. It outlines the process for transferring invoices, clarifies who is responsible for collecting payments, and specifies whether the factor assumes the risk of bad debt.
Recourse factoring is the most common and means that your company must buy back any invoices that the factoring company is unable to collect payment on. You are ultimately responsible for any non-payment. Non-recourse factoring means the factoring company assumes most of the risk of non-payment by your customers.
The period of factoring usually extends from 90 to 150 days. In some cases, companies can extend this period beyond 150 days.
There are two types of debts: recourse and nonrecourse. A recourse debt holds the borrower personally liable. All other debt is considered nonrecourse. In general, recourse debt (loans) allows lenders to collect what is owed for the debt even after they've taken collateral (home, credit cards).
