Changing Your Invoice Finance Provider

Considering a change in your invoice finance provider? Whether it's due to dissatisfaction or other reasons, our guide offers a thorough understanding of the process. We'll explain the importance of UCCs, guide you through the transition steps, and list essential questions to ask before committing to a new financial partner.

Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) Explained

Invoice finance companies use UCC filings to secure their interests. The UCC serves to:

  • Track asset rights.
  • Inform other lenders about existing financial agreements.
  • Ensure the financier's primary rights to your invoices, much like a mortgage or car title.

Transitioning Between Providers

Switching providers involves a "buyout" process. Your new financier will settle any outstanding balance with your previous provider, similar to refinancing. This process is formalized in a Buyout Agreement signed by all involved parties.

Calculating the Buyout Amount

The buyout amount typically includes unpaid invoices less any reserves, plus additional fees from your former financier. It's crucial to request a detailed breakdown to understand any extra charges or early termination fees.

Cost Implications of a Buyout

Transitioning can be cost-effective if you supply new invoices to the new financier. Using previously financed invoices might incur double fees. It's important to communicate with your previous provider to prevent extra charges.

Time Considerations

The switch could extend processing times due to buyout calculations and approvals. Working with an experienced company can make this transition more efficient.

Complex Scenarios

In some cases, both your previous and new financiers might have rights to your invoices during the transition, though this is not always the case.

Questions to Ponder Before Committing

  • Is it possible to work with multiple invoice finance companies at the same time?
  • What are the notice periods for changing providers and potential penalties?
  • How quickly does the new provider process payments?
  • What are your points of contact at the finance company?
  • Will you be responsible for postage costs for mailing invoices?
  • Are there fees for credit checks or adding new customers?
  • When does the financier start holding reserves?
