Invoice factoring for Minneapolis, the Twin Cities, and Minnesota companies that bill B2B customers on terms.
(also called accounts receivable factoring or receivables factoring)
Orange Commercial Credit is an independent, privately held factoring company that works directly with Minneapolis, Minnesota businesses that invoice B2B customers on terms.
We buy approved unpaid invoices for trucking, staffing, manufacturing, and other B2B companies so you can get paid before your customer’s 30, 60, or 75-day terms end.
Once your customer is approved and your invoice is verified,
we usually send most of the money within
24 hours.
Before you decide, we show you the numbers in writing: what you get now (advance), what’s set aside until your customer pays (reserve, if any), and the cost (fee).
A factoring company buys approved unpaid B2B invoices so a business can get paid before its customer pays on terms.
Minneapolis results include local Twin Cities factors, regional Minneapolis–St. Paul offices, national direct factors, freight and staffing specialists, produce and agricultural factoring providers, asset-based and commercial-finance companies, ranking pages, company profiles, directories, and referral services.
Orange Commercial Credit is a national independent direct factoring company serving Minneapolis, the Twin Cities, Minnesota, and businesses nationwide. One customer and one invoice can start the review.
Use the listings to build a shortlist. Then compare the written quote for one real customer and one real invoice.
You may have heard about us from a friend, or you may be comparing Minneapolis factoring companies after a search. However you got here, the pressure is usually the same.
You need your money before the
30, 60, or 75-day terms you gave your customers.
The work’s already done. The invoices are out. And your bills are piling up, unpaid, while you’re left waiting.
Trucking. Staffing. Manufacturing.
Different work. Same wait.
Your customer wants 30, 45, or even 60-day terms. To win the business, you agree. No matter the terms, you still have bills to pay.
Payroll, fuel, insurance,
materials, equipment, repairs...
The bills keep coming while you wait out those terms. You can put expenses on a card while you wait, but the card bill comes due long before your customer pays.
Wait too long and you’re the one
stuck with late fees or interest.
Minneapolis results advertise advances from 70% to 95%, approval in as little as 15 minutes, same-day advances, funding within 24 hours, fees from 1% to 5% per 30 days, recourse and non-recourse programs, and local, regional, or national service.
Those claims may describe different products or different points in the review. Ask whether the company buys the invoice or lends against receivables, and whether the timing refers to an application response, customer approval, account setup, invoice verification, or the actual advance.
If you run a business in Minneapolis and you’re choosing an invoice factoring company, start with one real customer and one real invoice. Review the product type, account fit, advance rate, fee, any reserve, customer approval, paperwork needed, payment instructions, funding timing, agreement terms, invoice choice, and who answers after setup.
If a Minneapolis result advertises produce or agricultural factoring, construction factoring, asset-based lending, or another finance product, compare that separately from invoice factoring for completed B2B work.
Do not compare funding timing without the conditions. Ask what must happen before the advance can be sent and who answers after setup.
The written numbers are what let you compare the quote without guessing.
You can review the numbers without visiting a factoring office.
Use the table below to compare the claims visible in Minneapolis search results against what should be confirmed in writing.
| What you see in search | What to check before you choose |
|---|---|
| Minneapolis or Twin Cities office, ratings, reviews, or face-to-face service | Who reviews the customer and invoice, whose agreement applies, who sends the advance, and who services the account after setup. |
| Approval in 15 minutes | Whether the claim means an application response, preliminary decision, customer approval, account setup, or a funded invoice. |
| Same-day advance or funding within 24 hours | What account setup, customer approval, invoice verification, required backup, bank cutoff, and bank timing come first. |
| Advance from 70% to 95% | What the actual customer and invoice qualify for, whether a reserve applies, and whether the percentage is an advertised maximum or the written account advance. |
| Fee from 1% to 5% per 30 days | What industry, invoice volume, customer credit, and customer-payment period the rate assumes, and whether other charges or minimums apply. |
| Recourse or non-recourse factoring | What type of customer nonpayment is covered, what is excluded, and how disputes, short pays, missing paperwork, or other nonpayment are treated. |
| Invoice factoring, invoice financing, or A/R financing | Whether the company buys the invoice or lends against receivables under separate collateral, repayment, reporting, and agreement terms. |
| Asset-based lending or commercial finance | What assets secure the offer, what repayment and reporting terms apply, and whether the product is invoice factoring or another financing obligation. |
| Industry-specific factoring | Whether the provider works with the actual invoice type. Orange Commercial Credit generally excludes most construction invoices, third-party medical receivables, and consumer invoices. |
A factoring company does not need a Minneapolis office to factor approved invoices for a Minneapolis business.
That is because customer approval is based on commercial credit review, payment-history information, invoice verification, and the backup paperwork tied to the completed work, not on the factoring company’s address.
Current Minneapolis results include local Twin Cities factors, regional Minneapolis–St. Paul offices, national direct factors, freight and staffing specialists, produce and agricultural factoring providers, asset-based and commercial-finance companies, ranking pages, company profiles, directories, marketplaces, and referral services.
The table below shows what each provider type usually means and what to verify: who funds the invoice, whose agreement you sign, who services the account, and what the written quote shows.
| Provider or listing type | What it usually means | What to check before you choose |
|---|---|---|
| Local Twin Cities factoring company | May have a Minneapolis, Bloomington, Edina, or other Twin Cities office, local phone number, map listing, ratings, reviews, or face-to-face service. | Who reviews the customer and invoice, what paperwork is required, what the written quote includes, and who services the account after setup. |
| Regional Minneapolis–St. Paul factoring office | May serve Minneapolis, St. Paul, Minnesota, and nearby Upper Midwest markets from one regional operations or sales office. | Which entity funds the invoice, whose agreement applies, what industries the office serves, and who answers after setup. |
| National independent direct factoring company serving Minneapolis | Reviews the customer and invoice, factors approved invoices, sends the advance, receives the customer’s payment, and services the account without requiring a Minneapolis office visit. | Whether one customer and one invoice can start the review and whether the written quote shows the advance, any reserve, fee, payment instructions, funding timing, agreement terms, invoice choice, and account support. |
| Freight or trucking factoring provider | Usually focuses on carriers, brokers, shippers, rate confirmations, PODs, bills of lading, fuel-related services, apps, load boards, or other carrier tools. | Whether the broker or shipper can be approved, whether the load paperwork supports the invoice, and whether added services change the fee, minimums, invoice choice, agreement terms, or account support. |
| Staffing factoring company or payroll-funding provider | May focus on staffing invoices, approved timesheets, weekly payroll, payroll processing, back-office administration, onboarding, or timekeeping tools. | Whether the service is invoice factoring, payroll processing, back-office administration, or another product with different costs and responsibilities. |
| Industry-specific produce, agricultural, construction, or specialty factor | May work with an invoice type, industry, or risk category that another factoring company does not serve. | Whether the provider works with your invoice type. Orange Commercial Credit generally excludes most construction invoices, third-party medical receivables, and consumer invoices. |
| Asset-based, secured, or commercial-finance provider | May offer invoice factoring, asset-based lending, secured credit, equipment finance, purchase-order funding, or another working-capital product. | Whether the company buys the invoice or lends against receivables or other assets, and what collateral, repayment, reporting, and agreement terms apply. |
| Ranking page, company profile, finance publisher, directory, or review site | May compare providers, publish company details, display reviews, or explain factoring without funding an invoice. | Who produced the information, whether it is current, and which company actually reviews, funds, and services the account. |
| Broker, marketplace, matching service, or referral source | May collect information and introduce the business to one or more factoring or finance providers instead of funding and servicing the account directly. | Who funds the invoice, whose agreement you sign, how the intermediary is paid, and who services the account after setup. |
Orange Commercial Credit fits the national independent direct factoring company category.
The details matter because the rate alone does not tell you what happens before funding or after your customer pays. A written quote should show the customer review, invoice review, advance, any reserve, fee, payment instructions, funding timing, agreement terms, invoice choice, and account support.
We're Orange Commercial Credit. What we do is buy the invoices for work you’ve already done. It’s called invoice factoring and we’ve been doing it since 1979.
Through recessions, slow seasons, and the ups and downs of every business cycle, Orange Commercial Credit has kept clients funded so payroll, fuel, and repairs get paid even when your customers’ payments are still weeks away.
You send us your customer's invoice and once it's approved, we send you most of the money up front.
This up-front payment is called an advance. Depending on your industry, it can be as high as 98% of the invoice.
When your customer pays in full, on the next cycle you receive the remainder minus our factoring discount fee, which can range from 1.25% - 5%.
You choose which invoices to sell. Use it when you need it, skip it when you don’t.
We’ve been through decades of change, but one thing never changes: your bills don’t stop. That’s why your money shouldn’t wait.
Over the years we’ve worked with trucking companies, staffing firms, service providers and manufacturers just like you. Many have been with us five years or more.
They stay because the money’s there when they need it and because they value the service they receive.
They have one dedicated account executive who is backed by an experienced team ready to answer all their questions.
Most of our business comes from referrals. Our clients refer because they know their friends will get the same service they do.
A produce hauler told us what it feels like working with OCC:
“We love OCC! They have taken care of us since 2021. We have the pleasure of working with our account rep. She is such a big help. Always quick to respond to any questions or inquiries we may have. She is always available and I know that I can always count on her. She’s the best! Quick payment, great rates, excellent communication. A trusted company. Highly recommend.”
—Mariya, Owner-Operator, Produce Hauler
A trucking owner told us how she first came to OCC:
“I turned to my friend Mike for advice and he referred me to his factor… OCC. She reviewed my paperwork and explained step by step what I needed to do including outlining who to contact, what numbers to reference and what I needed to ask.”
—Alyssa, Owner, Long-Haul Trucking Company
With us, even if your customer pays on 30, 45, or 60-day terms, you’ll have the cash in your account; usually within 24 hours of invoice approval once you’re established as a client.
Factoring Invoices Since 1979
Trucking, staffing, and manufacturing companies in
Minneapolis and across Minnesota use us when the wait gets too long.
One customer. One invoice. One call.
You get a person, not a menu:
1-800-231-3878
The only way this works is if your customer’s good for it. That’s why our credit check matters.
We’ve been doing this since 1979, and many of our credit team members have been here 10+ years. They know how to check credit right.
We focus on getting you paid faster on approved invoices.
It’s one thing to hear you’ll get paid...
Here’s what happens, step by step, from the time you send an invoice until the final payment clears.
In invoice factoring, the first thing we do is check your customer’s credit. We pull their payment history up front—even before you send us an invoice—because that’s how we decide if we can buy the invoice from you.
Once they're approved, you send an invoice, and our team then reviews the supporting paperwork that goes with it.
Once your invoice is approved and you're set up as a client, we notify your customer to send payment directly to us and confirm they’ve accepted the change.
It doesn’t change the work you did or the price on the invoice. It updates their Accounts Payable on where to send the payment.
The last step is the funding, the part you care about most.
That’s when the money hits your account.
On every funding you’ll see:
For some industries, we can advance up to 98% of the invoice within 24 hours. On a $10,000 trucking company invoice, that usually means $9,700 to $9,800 up front.
Depending on your company and your industry, we may hold back a small portion of the invoice as a reserve. Not all factoring agreements hold a reserve, but if yours does, it's a small amount set aside until your customer pays the invoice in full. It helps protect you against having to pay us out of pocket for any uncollectible portions of your invoices.
Typically, available reserve balances are refunded (minus our discount fee) on the next cycle following collections.
The discount fee depends on:
Whatever the case, we let you know the fee before you decide — no surprises.
That's how our factoring works.
Ready to see your numbers? You always see the advance, any reserve, and our fee before you decide. No surprises. Call and we’ll walk you through one invoice on the phone:
1-800-231-3878
The difference with us? We’re independent so we can set your terms the way you need them.
We don’t answer to outside investors. We’re privately held with no board calling the shots. We’re business owners too.
Your terms come from us, and no one else.
We know what it takes to meet payroll and keep the lights on. And we also know that every business is different. We don't drop numbers into a formula.
We base terms on what we see in your invoices and your customers, not on a one-size-fits-all chart.
One flatbed hauler said it best:
“It doesn’t matter if you bring $1 or a million, I guarantee you these people will treat you as a family member. We will always see these people as a great place for financial support and great customer care.”
—Rico, Flatbed Hauling
In the end, it comes down to trust. Who do you want to rely on when the bills can’t wait? With us, it starts simple: pick one customer, one invoice, and make one call.
You’re probably asking: So how would this work in my business?
The answer depends on the work you do.
We don’t fund most types of construction, third party medical receivables or consumer invoices. But we have funded companies across more than 50 industries.
We fund invoices for work that’s already done. The goods are already delivered, but your customer’s on terms.
The real issue is when the wait drags well beyond 30 or 45 days.
Let's walk through a few examples in trucking, staffing, and manufacturing, the industries where this matters the most.
Trucking advances can be as high as 98% of the invoice.
Trucking companies are Orange Commercial Credit’s largest client group. For Minneapolis and Twin Cities carriers, our team reviews broker credit and the invoice packet: signed rate confirmation, bill of lading or POD, invoice, and paperwork for extra charges such as lumper fees or detention.
Once the broker or customer is approved and the invoice packet is verified, we usually send most of the money within 24 hours.
You’re here because you’re done waiting to get paid. At Orange Commercial Credit, we buy invoices so carriers have money for expenses that won’t wait: repairs, fuel, and detention or lumper fees. This is called trucking factoring. You may also hear it called freight factoring or freight bill factoring.
We work with all of them every day
and the story's always the same.
The load’s already hauled. The paperwork’s in. The only thing missing is the money in your account.
And the paperwork looks different depending on the job.
However you haul it, the wait is the same.
The load’s delivered, the paperwork’s in, and you’re still not paid.
Meanwhile, fuel, payroll, and repairs are due now. That’s when you sell us the invoice, and we send the cash.
You’ve seen the ads: same-day funding, fuel cards, mobile apps, even 24/7 payouts. That’s all fine.
So the real question is:
Will the money actually
be there when you need it?
Yes! For clients with approved customers, funds usually go out within 24 hours of invoice verification.
And what about brokers?
You may not know if one’s been paying slow before you book the load.
That’s what our credit team does every day. We flag slow payers before you haul, so you don’t waste miles on a load that won’t pay.
We’ve been doing this since 1979. Many on our credit team have been here more than ten years.
That’s why your paperwork moves fast, and your funds go out on time.
Friday payroll comes due. Fuel card drafts this week. The truck note hits this month.
And the shop won’t release a truck until the repair’s paid. Plus, you need tires and have insurance renewals.
Carry a balance on your card, and the interest adds up.
Fuel bills spike, and drafts hit your account whether or not a broker’s check has cleared.
None of those bills wait.
You need to get paid.
If you’re running trucks through Minneapolis and St. Paul, trouble can start between the I-94 and I-35W split, Broadway Street NE, Hiawatha Avenue, I-494, Highway 169, and the St. Paul riverfront side when dock turns, local deliveries, and metro freight all land on the same day.
The I-94 and I-394 bridge and ramp work is still running through November 2026, Highway 280 is closed through late August, and the I-35E bridge over Shepard Road is shut through fall 2026. A slow move on any one of those routes can push the run onto longer city turns before the truck ever clears the metro.
On the north side, the old Upper Harbor freight ground is being redeveloped, so north Minneapolis freight has to lean harder on truck and rail moves instead of the old river terminal pattern. On the east side, St. Paul barge traffic is back for the season, which can load more drayage and dock traffic onto the same Shepard Road and riverfront lanes.
And farther north, Highway 65 in Blaine is now in a four-year interchange build, while Burnsville is still working through the last year of I-35W reconstruction from Cliff Road to the split. That means the next pickup or delivery can get pushed back before the driver even gets to the second stop.
If the delivery window closes, the load waits.
You still have fuel to buy.
Payroll is Friday. Your customer is paying on 30, 60 or 75 day terms.
A fleet owner put it this way:
“Amazing people working at this company! Always a phone call away always eager to help and always getting the issues solved. Great % rates and overall great people starting from managers to accountants and assistants. Been working with them for over 4.5 years with no problems or complications what so ever.”
—Vitaliy, Interstate Freight Carrier
An intermodal freight fleet owner told us what OCC meant for his business:
“Orange Commercial Credit (OCC) was instrumental in our growth from the very beginning. They not only understand the trucking industry but also specialize in the intermodal and drayage business. The funding is quick, the relationships are deep, the rates are fantastic, and the trust earned is invaluable. I have been able to personally recommend OCC to many of our Clients over the past years and have always heard great feedback in return. Thank you OCC for your commitment and friendship. Clients like me really do appreciate it!”
—Michael S., President, Intermodal, Client since 2013
A long-haul carrier told us why the credit check matters:
“OCC is an exceptional factoring company! Not only do they help us with our invoices, but also advise us on broker credibility, ensuring that we are getting paid for our work. I would like to express my sincere appreciation to my AE for her prompt responses to my inquiries. It makes a real difference.”
—Tom A., Long-Haul Trucking
Tom’s quote shows what a fleet counts on with credit checks. But when it’s just you and your truck, it’s fuel, repairs, insurance, and the bills waiting at home. All on you.
Fuel card drafts hit every week. The truck note’s coming due. Add shop repairs and home bills. Waiting 30–45 days for a broker to pay just doesn’t cut it.
That’s why we usually send the money within 24 hours; so it’s there before the next bill hits.
Here’s how another owner-operator put it after using OCC for years:
“I'm a small carrier owner operator.
I've been using Orange Commercial Credit for about 4 years now and I couldn't be more happier with the service provided by OCC.
OCC is very fair with their rate and they pay out very quickly (next day).
Their staff is great, very professional and nice.
I recommend OCC for all carriers who need a factoring company.”
—Ezechiel, Owner-Operator, OCC client since their first load
Ezechiel’s an owner-operator, and the bills don’t wait any less when you’re hauling hot shot loads.
Hot shot runs are smaller, but the bills still stack up just as fast.
Whether you're in an F-350, a Ram, or a Duramax with a gooseneck or bumper-pull, one stretch of repair and fuel bills can drain your cash fast.
You could really use that new Big Tex tandem dual wheel, but trailer payments stack up fast.
And if a broker’s been paying slow, you hear it from us before you waste the trip, not later.
A hot shot driver explained why she sticks with OCC:
“Orange Commercial Credit is an excellent company to work with. They offer exactly what we need to run our trucking company, we always know what brokers are safe to work with due to Orange’s credit check feature. Staff is always friendly and helpful. I have never had a bad experience with our assigned Account Executive or any other staff member for that matter, the whole team is great!”
—Crystal, Hot Shot Trucking
You’ve done the work. You shouldn’t be waiting a month to see the money.
Most clients start with just one customer, one invoice, and one call to us. Even if you just have a question, call us. We'd be happy to talk with you.
If you’re running loads in or out of Minneapolis or anywhere in Minnesota, we can walk through one invoice on the phone:
1-800-231-3878
We’ve been checking broker and shipper credit since 1979.
Staffing advances can be as high as 90% of the invoice.
For Minneapolis staffing agencies, we review the invoice, approved timesheets, service agreement before funding.
Once the customer is approved and the timesheets are verified, we usually send most of the money within 24 hours so payroll can run on time.
If you run a staffing agency, payroll means two things: the recruiters in your office and the workers already out on site.
Timesheets get signed, checks go out every Friday, and customers may not pay for 30, 60 or more days.
The hours are already worked. Payroll’s due. The money isn’t in yet.
However you staff it, the work is done and you’re still waiting to get paid.
And it’s never just wages. You've got:
If your staffing agency is placing production team members in North Minneapolis, West Broadway, University Avenue, Midway, Lauderdale, and the 3PL pockets near the Medical Alley side, you are filling warehouse, plant, and support shifts that still have to clock in on time.
Minnesota Paid Leave is now live, so the same week can bring both backfill coverage and new shift starts. On the north side, Upper Harbor construction and the West Broadway hiring pull can take workers out of the same labor pool before first shift starts, and in Minneapolis the large-employer minimum wage is heading higher, which can push pay pressure across the same warehouse and production lanes.
Highway 280 is closed through late August 2026, and that route is a real commute line between Minneapolis and the Midway and Lauderdale industrial side. When a worker no-shows, a bus runs late, or that cross-town trip adds 20 or 30 minutes, workers show up late and shift coverage can come up short before the floor is fully staffed.
If a shift isn't filled, the job doesn't happen.
You still have rent and insurance to pay.
Payroll is Friday. Your client is paying on 30, 60 or 75 day terms.
Without funding, some owners try to stretch their own payables or pay bills with credit cards. Others dip into personal savings, just trying to bridge the weeks until customers finally send payment.
A staffing owner explained how OCC let him take on more customers:
“I can always count on them. Orange Commercial has helped me take on clients I normally could not afford to take. The setup process with them was easy. They let you choose which clients you want to factor. Pricing is reasonable for the industry. Customer service is great and I can always count on them to send me funds when I need it.”
—George, Owner and Client Since 2016, Staffing Company
A staffing owner told us how OCC changed his cash flow:
“As a staffing company owner, I heavily rely on cash flow to keep my operations running smoothly and meet payroll, OCC's factoring process is incredibly streamlined and hassle-free. Their newly implemented online platform is user-friendly, making it easy for me to submit and track invoices. This new system allows me to receive funds quickly and efficiently, greatly improving my cash flow management. I highly recommend them.”
—Joe, Owner, Staffing Company,(Client since 2018)
And that’s how factoring works in staffing. A lot of owners call it payroll funding. Payroll runs every week, along with taxes, insurance, and benefits. With Orange Commercial Credit, the funds are there so checks go out on time.
You’ve made payroll. You shouldn’t be carrying it for weeks while customers take their time.
You send the invoice and approved timesheets; we review and send funds so your people get paid on time, even when customers take 30–60 days to pay you.
Most agencies start with just one customer, one invoice, and one call to us.
Or if you have just one question, call us now and get an answer:
We advance on your staffing invoices so you can run payroll,
pay taxes, and cover benefits.
Manufacturing advances can be as high as 90% of the invoice.
For Minneapolis manufacturers, we may review the invoice, purchase order, bill of lading, packing list, delivery proof, or signed QC paperwork before funding.
Once the customer is approved and the invoice is verified, we usually send most of the money within 24 hours so payroll, materials, and supplier bills can stay on schedule.
Staffing firms feel it every Friday. Manufacturers do too, just with different bills.
Twin Cities Metro: If your plant work runs through Plymouth, Maple Grove, North Minneapolis, Blaine, and the Twin Cities industrial belt, the same freight map can pull through I-494, Highway 55, Highway 65, I-94, I-394, and the north metro supplier lanes when med-tech parts, components, and finished goods are moving between plants and docks.
On the west and central side, the I-94 and I-394 bridge and ramp work can turn a normal run into a longer one before the truck clears Minneapolis and Golden Valley. On the east side, the full Highway 280 closure can push Midway and Roseville freight onto longer city turns before the next dock is ready.
North Minneapolis has its own change now too. With Upper Harbor moving into redevelopment, that old river-to-truck pattern is gone, so more plant freight has to lean on truck and rail moves instead of the old terminal ground.
And farther north, Highway 65 in Blaine is now in a multi-year interchange build. When one inbound load runs late there, one dock turn backs up on Highway 280, or one west-metro run gets stuck on I-94, the next order can end up waiting on parts before the floor is ready to move it.
If materials are late, the production line slows.
Power and utility bills keep running.
Payroll is Friday. Your customer is paying on 30, 60 or 75 day terms.
Suppliers want to be paid in 15 to 30 days. Customers take 45 to 60 days and sometimes longer. And they don’t release payment until every piece of paperwork lines up:
By the time you deliver and gather it all, you’ve already cut the checks weeks ago. And you’re still waiting on their payment.
And this is where factoring
helps in manufacturing.
You send the invoice with the paperwork, we review it, and we fund you within 24 hours of verification. You don’t wait 45 to 60 days for your customer’s accounts payable to cut the check.
A pallet manufacturer told us how OCC became part of their growth:
“I’ve been working with OCC for over 9 years now and they’re like a partner for me.
I could not have grown my business this quickly without them!
My account executive is great.
I get credit checks done same day on new business and have never had a complaint from any customer.”
—E.H., President, Pallet Manufacturer
A machine shop owner found that factoring with OCC was "very easy to work with":
“Finding out about OCC has helped keep my business operating with the cash flow I am now receiving. Within a day the money is in my account. During the whole process, OCC was very easy to work with. They made sure I was completely confident and work with me step by step, and the staff is very patient. I would recommend them to any business. Once you start with OCC, you will also be recommending them.”
—Val, Owner and Client Since 2017, Machine Shop
Whether it’s pallets, plastics, machining or food processing, if you’ve already delivered and sent the invoice, you don't need to be waiting 45 to 60 days for payment.
With us, you send the invoice with the backup. We review it and send the money; usually within 24 hours.
Pull one invoice from one customer,
and give us a call.
We'll walk you through it.
Call us today.
Manufacturers in Minneapolis and across Minnesota use us when customer terms run long.
Here's another benefit to factoring
you may not be aware of:
If you’re a pallet manufacturer sending a quote, a distributor supplying parts, or a service firm chasing contracts, you’ve heard it:
“Can you give us Net-30?”
Sometimes Net-45. Buyers ask for it every day. And if you can’t offer it, they move on. With factoring in place, you can say yes without tying up your own cash.
Longer terms can:
What matters most is whether your customer pays, and whether the invoice is clear, verified, and for work that has already been done.
Things like tax liens or pledged invoices can slow things down, but we will talk it through with you.
If we can help, we will say so fast. If not, we will tell you that too. No guesswork.
Call us and we will go over one of your customer’s invoices together.
No. Invoice factoring is not a loan. You sell an invoice for work already done, so there is no new debt.
It is money your customer already owes. Factoring lets you get most of that money sooner, after the customer is approved, the invoice is verified, and your account is set up.
The process starts with completed B2B work, an invoice, and the backup paperwork tied to that work.
Compare the advance rate, factoring fee, any reserve, customer approval process, paperwork needed, payment instructions, funding timing, agreement terms, invoice choice, minimums, and who answers after setup.
A national ranking, local-office address, fast-funding headline, app, fuel-card offer, or low-fee claim does not show the full quote. Start with one real customer and one real invoice, then compare the written numbers.
You can start with one customer and one invoice. It also helps to know your industry, the invoice amount, your typical monthly invoice volume, the customer’s payment terms, and what paperwork supports the completed work.
Monthly volume and payment terms can help you compare quotes, but you do not need everything ready before the first call.
Factoring agreements can treat unpaid invoices differently. The written agreement controls what happens if the customer pays late, disputes the invoice, short pays, or does not pay.
Ask what type of customer nonpayment is covered, what happens after a dispute or short pay, whether an unpaid invoice must be replaced or repurchased, what minimums apply, which invoices you may choose, and what happens when the agreement ends.
Orange Commercial Credit offers a 90-day factoring agreement, no setup fee, no minimum number of invoices, and invoice choice. Ask us to show how those terms apply to your customer and invoice in the written proposal.
Orange Commercial Credit offers a 90-day factoring agreement, no setup fee, no minimum number of invoices, and invoice choice. Ask us to show how those terms apply to your customer and invoice in the written proposal.
Factoring fee range: 1.25% - 5% (varies by deal).
The discount fee is a percentage of the invoice. How much depends on your industry, how fast your customer pays, your customer’s credit, and the dollar amount of invoices you sell us.
You always see the cost up front before you decide.
After your customer pays, we release the available reserve minus any ACH or wire fees as part of the monthly reserve release.
Money-transfer fees can be in the range of $2 ACH or $12 wire transfer fees, but can vary depending on your program and your bank. A wire transfer is optional. Ask your bank if they also charge a wire receiving fee.
This list is here so the numbers do not surprise you later.
If you only ask three, start here:
Full checklist:
1) Advance rate:
This is what you get up front. A lower advance can mean you are waiting on more of your own money until your customer pays.
2) Factoring fee:
Ask what the fee covers: per 10 days, per 30 days, daily, or flat. If it is tiered, ask for the full tier schedule in writing.
3) Recourse period (how long the invoice can stay open):
Ask what happens if your customer still has not paid by then.
4) Recourse or non-recourse terms:
Ask what the terms make you responsible for if the customer does not pay, disputes the invoice, short-pays it, or the paperwork does not match.
5) Customer credit concentration limits (how much they will fund for one customer):
Ask what the limit is if one customer is a big share of your billing.
6) Reserve:
This is what is held back and released when your customer pays, minus the fee. Ask when reserves are released and how those are processed.
7) “Other” delivery fees:
These do not change the factoring fee. They are extra costs you may pay to receive money, and your bank may charge a receiving fee.
• ACH electronic transfer send fee
• Wire transfer send fee
• Wire transfer receiving fee (ask your bank)
8) Minimums or commitment fees:
Ask if you pay a fee when you do not factor enough in a slow month.
9) What other fees do you charge?
Ask for a full list: setup, portal, monthly fees, invoice fees, due diligence, termination, buyout, or anything that can show up later.
10) Contract term:
Ask how long you are agreeing to, and how it renews.
• Initial term length
• Renewal term length
11) What notice do you need to stop factoring?
Ask what proper notice means and when it must be given.
• If you are moving to another factor
• If you just do not need factoring anymore
If they will not put it in writing, you cannot really compare it.
No. You choose which invoices to sell. Most clients start with just one, like a $5,000 load that has already been delivered.
Most of our clients are trucking companies, staffing firms, and manufacturers. But we have funded companies across more than 50 industries.
The process works the same for any business that bills other businesses. Orange Commercial Credit does not fund most construction invoices, third-party medical receivables, or consumer invoices.
Minneapolis examples of where the work happens:
Trucking: Freight moving through the I-94 and I-35W split, Hiawatha Avenue, I-494, Highway 169, and the St. Paul riverfront, with local, intermodal, reefer, and warehouse loads crossing the Twin Cities.
Staffing: Workers placed into warehouse, plant, and support shifts in North Minneapolis, West Broadway, University Avenue, Midway, Lauderdale, and other Twin Cities industrial areas.
Manufacturing: Plants and suppliers in Plymouth, Maple Grove, North Minneapolis, Blaine, Golden Valley, Roseville, and the Twin Cities industrial belt, with parts and finished goods moving through I-94, I-394, I-494, Highway 55, Highway 65, and Highway 280.
No. Trucking, staffing, and manufacturing are our biggest groups, but we also help many other B2B companies, including:
Plus other businesses that invoice customers on 30–75 day terms.
Yes. Orange Commercial Credit is a national independent direct invoice factoring company serving Minneapolis, the Twin Cities, Minnesota, and businesses nationwide.
We review the customer, invoice, and backup paperwork, send the advance after approval and verification, receive the customer’s payment, and service the account after setup.
One customer and one invoice are enough to start the review and see whether the written numbers work.
No. Orange Commercial Credit serves Minneapolis businesses without requiring an office visit.
A factoring company does not need a Minneapolis office to factor approved invoices for a Minneapolis business.
That is because customer approval is based on commercial credit review, payment-history information, invoice verification, and the backup paperwork tied to the completed work, not on the factoring company’s address.
Before you decide, we show the advance, reserve, fee, payment instructions, and funding timing in writing.
At Orange Commercial Credit, our portal shows every invoice and payment: status, paperwork, and credit, so you always know where you stand.
You do not have to wonder
if a payment was posted right.
Your paperwork is handled by our team. Many have been here for years and know how invoice questions, payment questions, and paperwork questions usually get fixed.
At Orange Commercial Credit, you get a dedicated account executive. They know you, your business, and your paperwork.
You are not bounced from rep to rep re-explaining the same invoice. You talk to the same person who knows your account, your invoices, and the questions that need to be answered before money is sent.
A logistics company shared what their experience with OCC has been like:
“We have been with OCC for the last 3 years and have had a great relationship. OCC has been a very important part in our business. With their quick credit information on new prospect customers is the key to eliminate any accounting issues.
"We submit our invoices through their scanning program and are funded same day with no problems.
"We have not had any problems or complaints from our customers as they are very kind and professional to them.
"I highly recommend OCC if you are looking for a reliable and honest Factoring Company.”
—Mary, Operations/Accounting, Logistics Company
Search results can mix Minneapolis office pages, Bloomington and Edina regional listings, online broker networks, national rankings, and national factoring companies serving Minneapolis and the Twin Cities.
The address identifies the listing. The written quote shows who reviews the customer and invoice, what advance and fee apply, whether a reserve applies, and who answers after setup.
Use the listings to build a shortlist. Then compare the written quote: advance, any reserve, fee, paperwork, payment instructions, funding timing, agreement terms, invoice choice, and who answers after setup.
Search results and directories can show related brands, divisions, or duplicate records at one office. Before treating the names as separate providers, verify the legal company name, the actual funder, whose agreement you would sign, and who would service the account.
Compare the written quote first. It should show who reviews the customer, who verifies the invoice, what advance is offered, whether a reserve applies, what fee applies, where the customer sends payment, and who answers after setup.
A broker, marketplace, matching service, or advisory service may introduce you to one or more factoring companies. A direct factoring company reviews the customer and invoice, sends the advance after approval, receives the customer’s payment, and services the account.
Ask who actually funds the invoice, whose agreement you would sign, how the intermediary is paid, who services the account, and who answers after setup.
Orange Commercial Credit is a direct factoring company. We review the customer and invoice, show the written numbers, send the advance after approval and verification, receive the customer’s payment, and service the account.
Orange Commercial Credit does not fund most construction invoices, third-party medical receivables, or consumer invoices. If a Minneapolis search result advertises construction factoring, medical receivables, or consumer receivables, compare that offer separately from invoice factoring for completed B2B work.
For a Minneapolis business that invoices B2B customers on terms, the review starts with the customer, invoice, and backup paperwork tied to the completed work.
Yes, when the company invoices B2B customers on terms, the customer can be approved, and the invoice can be verified. That can include technology-related B2B service providers, IT staffing, office-service companies, industrial service companies, and other commercial service businesses.
The review may include the invoice, service agreement, purchase order, work ticket, customer approval, or other backup tied to the completed work.
Yes. Orange Commercial Credit provides freight factoring and trucking factoring for Minneapolis, St. Paul, the Twin Cities, and Minnesota carriers when the broker or customer is approved, the freight invoice is verified, and the backup paperwork supports the completed load.
That paperwork may include the invoice, rate confirmation, bill of lading, POD, lumper receipt, detention backup, accessorial support, port paperwork, drayage paperwork, intermodal paperwork, or other freight paperwork tied to the completed load.
For port freight, drayage, intermodal, container trucking, owner-operators, and small fleets, compare: broker or customer review, invoice packet review, advance, any reserve, fee, funding timing, customer notice, and who answers after setup.
Once the broker or customer is approved, the invoice packet is verified, and the account is set up, Orange Commercial Credit usually sends most of the money within 24 hours.
Yes. Those services can matter, but they should not replace the factoring review. Ask whether the broker or shipper can be approved, whether the load paperwork supports the invoice, and whether the advance, any reserve, fee, payment instructions, and funding timing are shown in writing.
If a factoring offer includes a fuel card, fuel bundle, mobile app, load board, dispatch service, 24/7 funding, or other carrier tool, ask whether that extra service changes the fee, minimums, invoice choice, agreement terms, switching terms, or who answers after setup.
Compare the advance rate, factoring fee, any reserve, broker or shipper approval, paperwork needed, payment instructions, funding timing, recourse or non-recourse wording, monthly minimums, invoice choice, and who answers after setup.
A fast-funding claim, app, fuel-card offer, load-board integration, or 24/7 funding headline does not show the full quote. The written quote should show whether the broker, delivered load, invoice packet, fee, any reserve, and agreement terms match the freight invoice you need reviewed.
In many trucking searches, yes. Freight factoring, trucking factoring, transportation factoring, and freight bill factoring usually refer to the same basic arrangement: a carrier delivers a load, invoices a broker, shipper, or commercial customer, and sells the approved freight invoice to a factoring company instead of waiting for the customer to pay on terms.
The wording can vary, but the comparison is the same. Ask whether the broker or shipper can be approved, what paperwork is needed, what advance is offered, whether a reserve applies, what fee is charged, when funding can go out, and what happens when the customer pays.
Some trucking factoring companies require monthly volume minimums or expect you to factor every invoice from certain customers. Others may let you choose which invoices to factor. Ask before you sign.
Orange Commercial Credit lets you choose which invoices to factor, and you do not have to factor every invoice. One customer and one invoice are enough to start the review and see whether the written numbers work.
Yes, through invoice factoring. Orange Commercial Credit is not a payroll processor, PEO, payroll software company, recruiting firm, or back-office staffing company. We buy approved unpaid B2B invoices so Minneapolis staffing, warehouse, logistics, technology support, IT staffing, industrial service, office-service, healthcare staffing, clerical, security, and commercial service companies can have money for payroll before customers pay.
The review starts with one customer, one invoice packet, and the backup paperwork tied to the completed work. For staffing companies, that usually means approved timesheets, the invoice, and the service agreement or customer approval needed to verify the work.
Once the customer is approved, the invoice and timesheets are verified, and the account is set up, we usually send most of the money within 24 hours. Staffing and manufacturing advances can be as high as 90%.
In many staffing searches, yes. Staffing factoring, staffing invoice factoring, staffing agency factoring, and payroll funding often describe the same basic arrangement: the staffing agency completes the work, invoices the customer, and sells the approved invoice to a factoring company instead of waiting for the customer to pay.
The terms can vary by provider, but the comparison should start with the customer, approved timesheets, invoice, advance, any reserve, fee, payment instructions, funding timing, agreement terms, invoice choice, and who answers after setup.
Compare the advance rate, factoring fee, any reserve, customer approval process, approved-timesheet review, payment instructions, funding timing, monthly minimums, invoice choice, agreement terms, and who answers after setup.
A high-advance claim, same-day funding headline, back-office service, payroll software offer, or low-fee quote does not show the full agreement. The written quote should show whether the customer, invoice, approved timesheets, fee, any reserve, and agreement terms match the way your agency runs payroll.
Some staffing factoring companies require monthly volume minimums or expect you to factor every invoice from certain customers. Others may let you choose which invoices to factor. Ask before you sign.
Orange Commercial Credit lets you choose which invoices to factor, and you do not have to factor every invoice. One customer and one invoice are enough to start the review and see whether the written numbers work.
They are different services. Back-office payroll support may help with payroll processing, tax filing, onboarding, timekeeping, or administrative work. Invoice factoring buys approved unpaid invoices so your staffing agency can have money before the customer pays.
Before you choose, ask whether the provider is buying the invoice or providing payroll administration. Also ask whether any back-office service changes the fee, minimums, invoice choice, agreement terms, switching terms, or who answers after setup.
Yes. We provide manufacturing invoice factoring for Minneapolis and Minnesota manufacturers, logistics suppliers, industrial service companies, warehouse suppliers, medical device suppliers, packaging suppliers, fabrication shops, technology-related B2B suppliers, and other B2B companies when the customer is approved and the invoice can be verified.
Backup paperwork may include a purchase order, bill of lading, packing list, delivery proof, signed QC paperwork, work ticket, job ticket, vendor approval, warehouse delivery paperwork, or other support tied to completed work.
Once the customer is approved, the invoice is verified, and the account is set up, we usually send most of the money within 24 hours. Staffing and manufacturing advances can be as high as 90%.
No. Invoice factoring starts with completed B2B work, an invoice, the customer, and the backup paperwork tied to that completed work. A loan or line of credit may depend on your business credit, collateral, repayment terms, borrowing limits, and lender requirements.
If a Minneapolis search result advertises working-capital loans, equipment finance, purchase-order funding, asset-based lending, or another finance product, compare that offer separately from invoice factoring.
In an invoice factoring arrangement, the customer sends payment according to the factoring company’s written instructions.
That does not automatically mean the factoring company handles every dispute or collection task. Before you sign, ask who verifies the invoice, who answers payment questions, who follows up if payment is late, and who works through a dispute or short pay.
At Orange Commercial Credit, as the last step before funding, we contact your customer to verify the invoice and confirm where your customer sends payment.
No. They keep the same price and terms from you.
As the last step before funding, we contact your customer to verify the invoice and confirm where your customer sends payment.
If your customer has a question or something is missing, you work it out with them directly. Once the missing item is fixed, we can finish the review and send the advance if the invoice is approved.
Most of our team has been here ten years or more. They know the paperwork and can answer questions tied to the invoice.
Yes. Receivables factoring, accounts receivable factoring, A/R financing, A/R funding, and invoice factoring are often used for the same basic arrangement. You complete the work and invoice your customer. We review the customer and verify the invoice. After approval and account setup, we send the advance. Your customer pays according to the written instructions. When payment posts to our bank, any available reserve releases under the agreement terms.
But it’s not on you.
We get it.
There’s no setup fee and no obligation,
and most times you’ll have an answer
by the next business day.
If the proposal looks right to you, we’ll set up an agreement. It’s a 90-day factoring agreement with no minimum number of invoices required.
It's there when you need it. You’re just giving yourself room to try it and see how it feels.
The agreement lays out the basics:
Once an invoice is approved, the advance is usually sent within 24 hours.
A staffing owner put it this way:
“I can always count on them to send me funds when I need it.”
—George, Owner and Client Since 2016, Staffing Company, KY
No minimums, no quotas. You decide when to use it.
You also get a dedicated account executive who knows your business and picks up when you call — answering your questions on the spot.
And you can log in any time day or night to check on balances and invoices.
If it makes sense, great. If not, you’ll still leave knowing more than you did before.
And for the owners who don't put it off,
here’s what it looks like.
An intermodal owner told us what makes it work:
“We submit our invoices almost daily using their scanning program, and know that when we submit before the deadline we get same day funding.”
—Mike, President Intermodal Transportation & Warehousing Company, and Client Since 2006
The money’s in your account typically within 24 hours. Payroll runs, fuel gets bought, shop bills get paid.
That’s why we tell owners:
if the numbers make sense, you can decide from there.
Most owners start with just one invoice — enough to see how the numbers work.
In the end it always comes
back to the same thing:
one customer,
one invoice,
one call.
