Supplier Finance
Strengthen your supply chain by ensuring your key suppliers are paid promptly.
How It Works
Supplier finance (also known as reverse factoring or supply chain finance) allows your suppliers to receive early payment on their invoices, funded by a third-party lender. As the buyer, you maintain or extend your payment terms while your suppliers benefit from improved cash flow. This strengthens the entire supply chain.

£250k – £20m+
Terms
Revolving programme, typically 12–24 month agreements
Who It's For
