Why Courier Businesses Should Consider Wise Factoring – Especially if they need Funding for The Courier Exchange!

Cash flow can make or break a courier business. Whether you’re running a single van or managing a growing fleet, late payments and client delays can leave you stranded. This is especially true for courier companies operating through platforms like the Courier Exchange where early growth often brings credit constraints.

At Wise Factoring, we specialise in invoice factoring for courier businesses, helping you unlock working capital fast. Here’s how we keep your courier business moving.

 

Fast Courier Invoice Factoring to Keep You on the Road!

Our lenders advance between 85–90% of your invoice value within 24–48 hours, so you don’t have to wait weeks for payment.

Our lenders can also handle credit control on your behalf, either confidentially or directly with your clients, so you can stay focused on delivering goods, not chasing invoices.

 

Why Courier Businesses Choose Invoice Factoring

Courier companies face a unique cash flow challenge: fuel bills, vehicle maintenance, and driver wages all need to be paid before your clients settle their invoices. Invoice factoring bridges that gap by turning your unpaid invoices into immediate working capital, without taking on debt.

This works perfectly for transport and logistics businesses with B2B customers, especially where payment terms are net 30, 60, or even 90 days.

 

Courier Exchange Start-Ups: How to Build Your Case for Funding

One common issue we see is courier businesses starting with just one van on The Courier Exchange. Lenders often hesitate here because they want to see a growth plan and to spread the risk.

 

At Wise Factoring, we help you present that plan effectively.

  • Already lining up private contracts?
  • Planning to add more vans or work across platforms like Same Day Courier Network?

These are strong signals that your business is diversifying and scaling sustainably.

 

Courier Exchange Case Study:

A start-up courier approached Wise Factoring with:

  • One van on The Courier Exchange
  • Three more subcontractors lined up
  • A new private contract about to start

We used that growth story to secure them a £50,000 invoice factoring facility, just before the Christmas rush. This was a non-homeowner and a newly incorporated courier business! So it can be done, if you know where to go. It can waste a lot of time contacting lenders, many of whom do not fund the Courier Exchange any more, so contact us as we have the list of lenders that we know should be able to help.

 

Why Courier Companies Trust Wise Factoring when switching factoring suppliers

Here’s why courier businesses switch from their current factoring providers via Wise Factoring:

  • Specialist knowledge in transport, logistics, and courier invoice factoring
  • Access to a panel of 50+ funders (high-street banks and alternative lenders)
  • Flexible facilities: invoice factoring, discounting, spot factoring, revolving credit lines
  • Simple, hassle-free switching process with zero cash flow disruption

Clients tell us that using  Wise Factoring kept their vans on the road when their old providers slowed them down and put their whole business at risk.

 

Should Your Courier Business Be Using Invoice Factoring?

Here’s what funders typically look for in courier businesses applying for invoice factoring:

Criteria  Why It Matters
A spread of invoices  One client often isn’t enough, multiple contracts reduce funding risk
Private contracts or platform diversification  Shows stability beyond Courier Exchange jobs
Reliable, completed trade invoices  Factoring is for real deliveries, not speculative work
