Answers to Your Most-Asked Questions
What is factoring?
Factoring is a powerful financial solution that empowers you to optimize your cash flow effectively. With Partners Funding, you can effortlessly convert your outstanding invoices into a thriving checkbook balance. Our services come with a minimal fixed fee and absolutely no monthly minimums, ensuring that you receive your much-needed cash expeditiously.
What is the difference between recourse and non-recourse factoring?
Recourse factoring is a beneficial option for larger trucking companies that are willing to take on customer credit risk. This program offers the advantage of lower fees and the security of a financial reserve. On the other hand, non-recourse factoring allows Partners Funding to assume credit responsibility, although the factoring fee may be slightly higher. Interestingly, with non-recourse factoring, Partners Funding does not hold any reserve until the invoice is paid. This particular type of factoring is particularly well-suited for trucking companies that operate with one to five trucks.
What are Partners Funding factoring fees?
At Partners Funding, our factoring fees are determined by the amount of invoices you choose to factor each month, the average payment timeline of your customers, and the specific factoring program you select, whether it's recourse or non-recourse.

Do I have to factor all of my invoices?
While it is not mandatory to factor all your customers with Partners Funding, it is important to note that once a customer's account has been factored, it must remain as a factored account.
