Professional Services Business Finance
Recruitment, software and client projects can create costs before fees are collected. Explore business funding around your firm’s billing model and the income available for repayment.
Get started
Distinguish completed invoices from work in progress
An active client pipeline is not the same as cash in the bank. Separate retained income, billed fees, unbilled work and fees dependent on completion or another outcome. Project acceptance, cancellation terms and client concentration can affect the funding available. Money held on behalf of clients must not be treated as unrestricted business cash.
Eligible client invoices
Invoice discounting may suit firms with eligible business invoices and established credit control. Confidentiality and customer-notification terms need confirmation.
Explore this option →Occasional payment gaps
Selective invoice finance may suit particular eligible invoices rather than a continuing whole-ledger facility. Compare minimum charges and collection arrangements.
Explore this option →Information to prepare
Prepare management accounts, client contracts, debtor ageing and a forecast separating earned fees from pipeline assumptions. Explain acceptance stages, confidentiality requirements and existing borrowing. Check professional obligations before assigning receivables or offering security.
Your questions answered
Can unbilled work be funded as an invoice?
It is not normally the same as an eligible unpaid invoice. The provider needs to assess whether a payment obligation exists, the supporting contract and any acceptance conditions.
