What is Purchase Order Financing?
Purchase Order Financing (aka PO Financing) is NOT a loan but is a funding option for businesses that need cash to complete single or multiple customer orders. Unlike factoring, which provides an advance of cash from your invoices, purchase order financing gives you the ability to have goods available for your clients from your sources BEFORE generating an invoice.
What are the Features & Examples of How PO Financing can Help?
With many companies, cash flow problems exist. There will be times where there is not enough money available to cover the costs of doing business such as purchasing the supplies necessary to fill your order(s). Having to turn an order down would mean a loss of revenue and possibly risk tarnishing your reputation.
