How factoring works as an Amazon seller financing tool
Your business sells products or services via Amazon. So at the end of each month, you receive an earnings statement from the platform, showing what you have earned in sales and will receive 30-60 days later, when Amazon remits payment to you.
Rather than waiting weeks or even months for payment, you decide to factor your Amazon merchant earnings report using vendor finance e-commerce factoring. This gives you immediate access to the money you’ve earned and enables you to reinvest in future sales far more quickly.
When you factor with free same / next day funding, you might, you may receive immediate access to as much as 98% of the full amount of each earnings statement (or invoice) factored. This is money that might otherwise be tied up for weeks or even months as a “receivable” on your company’s books.
Once Amazon has submitted payment for the amount of the earnings statement, any amount held in reserve is forwarded to you as well. A low factoring fee (as low as 1-2%) will be your all-in cost for this type of financing in most cases, depending on the details of your factoring agreement.
