In the staffing world, nothing tanks morale faster than a late paycheck. Your temps rely on you to pay them on time— even when your clients drag their feet on paying you. Payroll financing bridges that painful gap, helping staffing agencies keep their workers happy and their cash flow steady.
At American Receivable Corporation, we’ve helped hundreds of staffing firms get the capital they need to meet payroll without stress, spreadsheets, or sleepless nights. Here’s how it works—and why it might just be your business’s best growth strategy.
The Payroll Crunch: When Growth Hurts Cash Flow
Staffing agencies operate in a unique financial cycle. You pay your employees weekly or biweekly, but your clients might not pay you for 30, 60, or even 90 days. That mismatch means your accounts receivable pile up while your bank account runs on fumes.
You could slow down growth, turn away new contracts, or max out credit cards—but none of those are smart long-term solutions. Instead, payroll financing gives you immediate access to the money tied up in unpaid invoices so you can cover payroll, taxes, benefits, and business expenses—without taking on debt.
How Payroll Financing Works
Payroll financing (also called invoice factoring or staffing agency funding) is simple:
- You staff and invoice your clients as usual.
- ARC purchases your unpaid invoices and advances you up to 95% of their value—often within 24 hours.
- When your client pays, we send you the remaining balance minus a small fee.
It’s fast, flexible, and scales with your business—meaning the more you grow, the more capital you can access. No collateral. No waiting. Just clean cash flow.
Example: Turning Slow Payments into Payroll Power
Let’s say you run a temp staffing firm with $150,000 in outstanding invoices. Your next payroll is due Friday, but your clients won’t pay for another 45 days. Instead of sweating bullets, you submit those invoices to American Receivable.
By Thursday, you have the cash in hand to pay your employees, take on new placements, and keep operations running smoothly. When your clients finally pay, American Receivable releases the reserve—minus a small factoring fee that’s far less painful than missed payroll penalties.
