The UK Invoice Finance Handbook

How to Compare Factoring and Invoice Discounting Providers, Costs and Eligibility. 2026 Edition

By Oliver Mackman, Director of Market Invoice · 74 pages · UK English

The UK Invoice Finance Handbook is a plain-English guide for UK business owners and finance managers weighing up invoice finance. It explains how factoring and invoice discounting actually work, how advances and fees are calculated, how to read the true cost of a facility, who the product suits (and who it does not), and how to compare quotes and switch provider without disruption. Later chapters cover sector-specific considerations for construction, recruitment and export, plus bad-debt protection and selective facilities. The book is compiled from Market Invoice’s independent editorial and comparison research and is written by Oliver Mackman, Director of Best Business Loans Ltd. It is general information about UK invoice finance, not financial advice.
