Financial Solutions for North American Companies

SCALE LOGO 1

Since 1994 Scale Funding has provided top invoice factoring solutions to small and midsize companies throughout the state of Minnesota.

With years of experience working with a variety of industries, we have a strong understanding of the many obstacles businesses face.

A common concern shared amongst businesses is having to wait for 30, 60, or even 90 days on customer payment. These extended payment cycles can weigh heavily on a company’s cash flow needs. As a result, it easy to fall behind on covering expenses such as meeting payroll, paying bills, and purchasing equipment and supplies.

Therefore, many companies throughout Minnesota turn to invoice factoring.

What is Invoice Factoring?

Invoice factoring is an alternative to traditional bank financing. Instead of getting a loan or line of credit, businesses with customers that pay on extended terms, sell their invoices to a factoring company, and receive an immediate cash advance. This simple transaction provides money that is used as needed.

Why Do Companies Finance with Invoice Factoring?

Minnesota invoice factoring companiesExpansion & Growth

When your company is growing and expanding, you need a steady cash flow to invest in new equipment, resources, and employees. With our invoice factoring programs, your working capital grows as your company grows.

Maxed-Out Lines of Credit

The bank sets a credit limit for your company, and once you hit that max, it’s hard to obtain more to fund your business. Companies with maxed-out lines of credit work with Scale Funding over other Minnesota factoring companies because we don’t limit your growth. The more business you do, the more capital we provide you.

Slow-Paying Customers

It’s difficult to budget your cash when you have slow-paying customers and the uncertainty of not knowing when you will get paid. Work with Scale Funding and eliminate the wait from your slow-paying customers by getting paid on your invoices within 24 hours.

Startups

It can be challenging for start-ups to obtain a business loan or line of credit. Even if they do, many times the credit limit isn’t large enough to meet daily operational needs. With accounts receivable factoring, the amount of capital is in direct correlation with the business your company is doing.

Bank Turn-Downs

When the bank says “no,” we say “yes.” Even if you’ve been turned down by a bank, there is still a finance solution for you. Accounts receivable factoring gives you the working capital you need – even when the bank says “no.”

Less-Than-Perfect Credit

If you have less-than-perfect credit and the bank won’t provide you with a sufficient amount of working capital, our Minnesota accounts receivable factoring programs are your solution. We look at the credit of your customers rather than your credit.

Tax Liens

When a company has a tax lien, it’s nearly impossible to get funding from a bank. Scale Funding offers creative finance solutions so that tax liens aren’t an issue when it comes to getting your company the cash it needs.

Bank Workouts

Banks pull away from companies if they see the risk getting too high. When this happens, your company doesn’t have access to the capital it had previously. We work with many companies in work-out situations and provide them with the capital needed to maintain their business functions.

Bankruptcy

Being in a bankruptcy reorganization situation is tough for any company – especially when you’re not receiving the capital you need to get back on track. Scale Funding can provide funding to companies in these situations, with the approval of the Court.

Outside of Alaska, Minnesota holds the largest population of Timberwolves in the United States. The state is also home to a large number of birds, including the state bird, the common loon.
