Invoice factoring
Invoice factoring is a financing tool where a third party buys your unpaid invoices at a discount and advances you most of the invoice value within days. You receive immediate cash, and the factoring company collects payment directly from your customer when the invoice matures. This approach suits businesses with strong receivables but irregular cash flow, common along the I-90 corridor where trucking, ag services, and construction trades operate on extended payment terms. Steelhaven Funding brokers these arrangements, matching your invoices and industry to the right factoring partner without lending directly.
Invoice factoring
Shepherd sits along the Yellowstone River valley where agricultural suppliers, livestock haulers, and oilfield service providers often invoice commercial clients who pay Net-30 or longer. When your crew needs fuel or parts before the check clears, invoice factoring shepherd companies use bridges that gap.

Because Steelhaven Funding works as a broker, we shop your receivables to multiple factoring sources, finding terms that align with your customer base and invoice size.
