What Funding Can I Get for My Business if Cash Flow Is Tight?

If money is due out before customer payments come in, your business does not have to stop growing. The right funding can release working capital, cover urgent costs and put cash back into your business.

Cash Is Tight, but the Business Is Strong

You may have plenty of work, reliable customers and a strong order book but still struggle to pay wages, suppliers, fuel, stock or tax bills on time.

That is not necessarily a sales problem. It is often a timing problem: your customers are paying after your own costs have already fallen due.

Go‑Factor can identify funding designed to close that gap and give your business the cash it needs now.

Why Do Businesses Need Cash-Flow Funding?

Businesses approach Go‑Factor when:

• Customers are taking 30, 60 or 90 days to pay.
• Payroll is approaching and unpaid invoices are tying up cash.
• A new contract requires additional staff, stock or equipment.
• Suppliers need paying before customer money arrives.
• The existing overdraft is too small.
• VAT, PAYE or another tax payment is due.
• The bank has declined an application or will not increase its support.

The earlier you deal with the funding gap, the more options your business is likely to have.

What Business Funding Could I Get?

The right solution depends on what is creating the pressure and where the strength sits within your business. Go‑Factor can compare:

• Invoice finance to release cash tied up in unpaid business-to-business invoices.
• Selective invoice finance when you want to fund individual invoices rather than your entire sales ledger.
• Business loans and revolving credit facilities for working capital and short-term costs.
• Asset finance for vehicles, machinery and business equipment.
• Trade finance to purchase stock and complete confirmed customer orders.
• Construction and contract finance for staged payments, applications for payment and project-led work.
• New-start funding for businesses with contracts, orders or eligible customer invoices.

How Quickly Can I Get Business Funding?

Go‑Factor can provide a same-day indicative funding offer, with facilities capable of completing in approximately seven days.

If payroll, suppliers or a new contract cannot wait, you need a clear answer—not weeks of uncertainty.
