Weekly Cash In

Advances & Cash Reserve Releases by Week

Advances land the day you submit; cash reserve releases arrive when your customers pay. The factor holds the reserve — it’s real cash, not an accounting entry.

Key Insights

What This Simulation Tells You

Key takeaways based on your industry and volume — enter your own numbers in the full simulator for a more precise picture.

Immediate Cash Unlock

Over 90 days, factoring puts $76K in your hands immediately — instead of waiting 35 days for each invoice to pay.

True Cost of Factoring

Your estimated fee cost is $1K (1.6% of advances). Compare this to the cost of a line of credit or the opportunity cost of slow payments.

Cash Reserve Position

At peak, $3K in cash reserve is held by the factor. By week 13, $3K remains held — this is real cash the factor releases as your customers pay, not an accounting entry.

Cash Flow Advantage

Factoring puts you $29K ahead cumulatively compared to waiting for payments — capital you can redeploy immediately.

Days of Waiting Eliminated

Without factoring, you'd have $29K perpetually stuck in receivables, waiting up to 35 days to collect. Factoring frees that cash in about a day instead.
