Accounts Receivable Factoring

Has anyone sold their accounts receivables at a discount to improve cashflow for their business? I am looking for pros and cons of using a factor to generate some cashflow. I like the fact that it is not adding debt or diluting equity while generating cash.

Also taking any factor recommendations.

As long as it does not disrupt working capital requirements factoring can be a great way to raise capital quickly. When it makes sense, we often structure acquisitions with some of the capital coming from A/R financing. It enables the company to have less debt post-transaction. If you are based in the US, feel free to reach out to me to discuss options. We can help factor from $5K all the way up to $50MM.
