What is Invoice Trading?

Invoice trading platforms provide finance for businesses against individual invoices, rather than signing clients up for long-term contracts.

It’s called ‘invoice trading’ because it connects businesses selling invoices with investors lending against those invoices via an online ‘peer-to-peer’ network.

Companies like Marketinvoice are very different to the main alternative, which is factoring. Their three main advantages are flexibility, cost and scope. In terms of flexibility, using Marketinvoice you sell the invoices that you want, when you want. Unlike traditional invoice discounting, there is no obligation to discount your entire debtor ledger, and no lengthy lock-in periods.
