It is common for staffing firms to face cash challenges during times of growth. Dealing with many different pay cycles, meeting payroll can become difficult. Many staffing firms will turn to payroll funding or factoring to get them though their time of need. While payroll funding is a good option for some staffing firms, factoring offers more flexibility.

At a glance, here are some of the differences between Payroll Funding and Factoring a staffing company:

PAYROLL FUNDING:

Funding only the payroll portion of the invoice

Long-term contracts

Usually the staffing firm must submit all time cards

No Credit guarantee

Funding Company takes over invoices payroll and tax processing

FACTORING WITH US:

Funding of entire invoice. The staffing firm may use the funds for any purpose, payroll, marketing, expanding, etc.

No long-term contracts required

Staffing firm has total control over which invoices they submit to us.

Credit guarantee, in factored invoices

Will fund into staffing firm's payroll account

Staffing firm manages payroll, insurance, etc
