I want to finance my B2B accounts receivable

4 steps to understanding how to submit and finance a receivable

Written by Ava

As a reminder, a B2B customer receivable is an invoice that you have issued to your customers: you can finance yourself the sum of your customers' outstanding and unpaid invoices so that you don't have a cash flow gap. You can finance due invoices only.

Defacto only accepts accounts receivable where the counterparty is a business with a business identifier. Any request for an invoice with a private individual will be refused.

💡The repayment of your financing is directly linked to the payment received from your client. As soon as this payment is credited to you, you must proceed with repaying the corresponding financing. Until this repayment has been made, we will not be able to approve any new financing requests.

1/ Upload the accounts receivable invoice

  • Select "Client receivable"

  • Drag and drop or upload the invoice you wish to finance

2/ Verify the invoice information

Once you have uploaded the invoice, double click on it to check the following information:

  • Amounts: net, tax and total amount

  • Creation date

  • Due date

  • Customer information: If the OCR does not recognise the information, you can simply create a new counterparty by adding the client's business identifier (SIREN, NIF, CIF).

3/ Request a loan

You are now ready to submit your loan, just click "Continue" to start!

1. Set up the main details of your loan request

  • Loan amount: Choose the amount you wish to finance, you can choose up to 100% of the invoice amount

  • Repay on: the date you wish to repay the loan (this cannot be more than 60 days past the due date of your invoice)

2. Set up your options

  • Payment: the date on which you would like us to send the payment. This can be today or in the future.

  • Reference: you can choose to customise the transfer reference. Please note that SEPA transfers cannot have more than 35 characters and can only contain letters, numbers or the following characters / - ? : ( )

4/ Confirm the loan request

Almost there! You can now review the request one more time before validating by clicking on "Submit loan request".
