Factoring Programs for Trucking Companies-Recourse and Non-Recourse
Accounts Receivable Cash will match you with a factor who can deliver your funds within 24 hours. We also offer recourse and non-recourse factoring. Recourse factoring requires your trucking company to take responsibility for the payment of the invoice. Recourse factoring allows the factor to avoid responsibility if the client does not pay within the allotted time slot due to bankruptcy or going out of business. Since your company is taking on the responsibility and risking a loss, this option is the most affordable when factoring freight. If you need immediate cash at a low cost, recourse factoring may be for you. Recourse freight factoring may also be a good option if your clients are reliable and pay in a timely fashion. Factors offer credit checks to increase your awareness of your client’s credit worthiness. Knowing if your clients are in good credit standings can increase the likeliness of payment but will not guarantee it. With recourse factoring your trucking company is ultimately responsible for the unpaid invoices. Recourse fees start as low as 1%.
Non-recourse factoring requires the trucking factoring company to assume the credit risk for the collection of the invoices. Non-recourse factoring protects your trucking company from clients who ultimately do not pay their invoices. As a result, factoring companies charge a higher fee for this service. Fees are dependent on volume but range from 3% to 5% for non-recourse factoring. If your company relies on a few, large clients, non-recourse factoring may be a better fir for you because in the case of non-payment, your trucking company is protected by the factor.

Factors have the ability to pay truckers directly through their fuel cards, which work like debit cards. Truckers can use the cards on gas, repairs and other items. Fuel cards are set up through a variety of fuel companies but the funding comes from the freight bill factoring agreement. Fuel cards are quick and easy to obtain. Once your approved for factoring your trucking receivables, fuel cards are available at no additional cost and will be mailed to you the day after approval.
Truckers Benefit from Transportation Factoring Through Fuel Advances
Truckers are able to get immediate cash upon load pickup with fuel advances. High fuel prices can make it impossible for truckers with cash flow problems to deliver their goods to the destination. Fuel advances can provide an increase in working capital for these truckers to get their goods from point A to point B without worrying about affording fuel. Freight factoring companies provide an instant cash advance for freight bills. With this cash flow problem solved, trucking companies have the opportunity to take on more projects and expand their companies. Fuel advances allow truckers to gain up to 50% of the fright bill upon pick up of the load. Fuel advances can be sent directly to your bank account or placed on your fuel card and you will receive the funding within a few hours.
