    What are the benefits of working with American Prudential Capital?

    Significantly increase the cash flow of your business

    • Earned cash is available for qualified receivables in as little as 24 hours

    Use readily available cash to grow your business

    • Funds generated by factoring can be used for new equipment acquisitions, inventory purchases, marketing expenditures, facility improvements, etc. that otherwise may not have been feasible when you need them most.

    The process is very efficient and reliable

    • Once approved, our clients trust American Prudential Capital for a user-friendly approach to doing business each and every month. Payments to our clients are dependable because we understand what a predictable stream of cash can mean to the life of any business.

    Use what you need when you need it

    • There are no required monthly minimums for factoring and no long-term obligations. We recognize that factoring should be a “bridge mechanism” to more traditional financing and that our services are typically a season in the life of most businesses.

    Capital availability is flexible

    • Factoring is the only means of business financing that can grow proportionally and immediately with your business as you need it.

    Minimize internal costs associated with collections

    • Your company will spend less time on collections since we take on most of this task and we will make the phone calls. You can focus more of your efforts and your employees’ efforts on higher value-added activities, such as sales and production.

    Better knowledge of your customer’s credit

    • At no extra charge, American Prudential Capital verifies the credit history of our Client’s customers. We will both have a better idea of their ability to pay your invoices. Our Clients are able to make more informed decisions on where to target your efforts for the greatest gain to minimize your bad debt write-offs.

    Leverage your customer’s credit rating

    • Your customers’ good credit ratings is one of the strongest assets you can have when factoring. It is their positive history as much as anything that makes this process work for you.

    Factoring is not a loan

    • No debt is created when factoring so there is no negative impact on your financials. You are not using long-term debt to satisfy a short-term need for cash.
    • This increases your appeal to traditional financing because factoring creates cash in your bank account not debt on your Balance Sheet.

    Take advantage of early payment discounts to suppliers

    • Minimize some of your factoring costs by leveraging supplier offered discounts for early payment and simultaneously increase your credit rating.
