Invoice factoring for Charleston, Charleston County, the Lowcountry, and South Carolina businesses 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 Charleston, South Carolina businesses that invoice B2B customers on terms. We serve Charleston businesses through our nationwide operations, not through a Charleston office.
Our credit managers use national commercial credit databases and payment-history information to review your customer. We also verify the invoice and the paperwork tied to the completed work. Those checks do not require a Charleston office.
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.
After account setup, customer approval, invoice verification, required backup, and bank cutoff, we usually send the advance within 24 hours.
Before you decide, we show the numbers in writing: the advance, any reserve, the fee, payment instructions, and funding timing.
A factoring company buys approved unpaid B2B invoices so a business can get paid before its customer pays on terms.
When you search for Charleston factoring companies, you may be asking two different questions: which companies have a Charleston-area office, and which companies can factor approved invoices for a Charleston business? Those are not always the same list.
A map result answers the first question. To answer the second, compare local office providers with national factoring companies serving Charleston, then check who buys the invoice directly, which industries the company works with, and who services the account.
Orange Commercial Credit is a national independent direct factoring company serving Charleston, Charleston County, the Lowcountry, and South Carolina businesses.
We review approved invoices from trucking, staffing, manufacturing, and other B2B businesses. One real customer and one real invoice can start the review.
You may have heard about us from a friend, or you may be comparing Charleston factoring companies after a search. However you got here, the pressure is usually the same.
You need the money before your customer pays on
30, 60, or 75-day terms.
The work’s already done. The invoices are out. And your bills are piling up while you are 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.
Charleston search results can mix local office pages, national direct factoring companies, freight and staffing specialists, ranking pages, brokers or referral services, and finance companies offering a different product.
Headlines may mention fast funding, high advance rates, recourse or non-recourse programs, fuel or carrier tools, local service, or national digital access. Those claims do not all describe the same product or the same point in the review.
Before you compare the headline, identify who funds the invoice and what the written quote says for one real customer and one real invoice.
Third-party medical receivables and most construction invoices are different categories from the approved B2B receivables Orange Commercial Credit generally factors.
After you confirm the industry fit, compare the complete written cost and terms, not only a headline rate or local-office label.
The written numbers are what let you compare the quote without guessing.
A factoring company does not need a Charleston office to factor approved invoices for a Charleston 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.
That is why a Charleston business can compare a nearby office with a national direct factor. The useful questions are who buys the invoice, which industries the company knows, what the written terms show, and who services the account after setup.
Orange Commercial Credit is a national independent direct factoring company serving Charleston, Charleston County, the Lowcountry, and South Carolina businesses without claiming a Charleston branch.
You don’t need to drive to a factoring office to know if the numbers work. You need one customer checked, one invoice reviewed, the advance shown, the fee shown, and the funding timing explained before you decide.
Use the table below to compare common search claims against what should be confirmed in writing.
| What you see in search | What to check before you choose |
|---|---|
| Charleston office, nearby office, phone number, map listing, ratings, or reviews | Who reviews the customer, invoice, and required backup, who sends the advance, whose agreement you sign, and who services the account. |
| 24-hour, same-day, or fast-funding wording | What has to happen first: account setup, customer approval, invoice verification, required backup, bank cutoff, and bank timing. |
| High advance rate or low-fee wording | The actual advance and fee for your customer and invoice, whether a reserve applies, and whether minimums or other charges apply. |
| Recourse or non-recourse factoring | What type of customer nonpayment is covered, what is excluded, and what the written agreement says about a dispute, short pay, or paperwork problem. |
| Fuel card, app, load board, back-office service, or software platform | Who provides the extra service and whether it changes the fee, minimums, invoice choice, agreement, funding timing, or account support. |
| Broker, marketplace, directory, ranking page, or referral source | Who receives your information, which company reviews the account, provides the quote, funds the invoice, whose agreement you sign, and who services the account. |
Charleston results can include local office pages, national direct factors, freight and staffing specialists, manufacturing and industrial factors, accounts receivable and commercial-finance companies, purchase-order or supply-chain finance, technology platforms, ranking pages, directories, and referral sources.
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 Charleston or regional South Carolina factoring company | May show a Charleston-area address, local phone number, office hours, ratings, reviews, or local history. | Whether the address is a staffed factoring office, who reviews and funds the invoice, and who services the account. |
| National independent direct factoring company serving Charleston | Reviews the customer and invoice, factors approved invoices, sends the advance, receives the customer’s payment, and services the account. | Whether the written quote shows the advance, any reserve, fee, required paperwork, funding timing, agreement terms, invoice choice, and account support. |
| Freight or trucking factoring provider | May focus on carriers, drayage, intermodal freight, brokers, shippers, rate confirmations, bills of lading, PODs, port freight, and carrier tools. | Whether the broker or shipper can be approved, whether the load paperwork supports the invoice, and what must be complete before the advance can be sent. |
| Staffing factoring or payroll-funding provider | May buy approved staffing invoices so an agency can run payroll before customers pay. Some also offer payroll processing or back-office services. | Whether the product is invoice factoring or another payroll or administrative service with different costs and responsibilities. |
| Manufacturing, maritime-support, or industrial factoring provider | May focus on manufacturers, warehouse or logistics companies, industrial suppliers, maritime-support companies, purchase orders, packing lists, delivery proof, bills of lading, or QC paperwork. | Whether the customer can be approved, the completed work supports the invoice, and the offer is invoice factoring rather than an earlier-stage finance product. |
| Accounts receivable, secured, asset-based, or commercial-finance provider | May buy invoices, lend against receivables, use other assets as collateral, or offer another commercial credit facility. | Whether the company buys the invoice or lends against assets, and what collateral, repayment, reporting, and agreement terms apply. |
| Supply-chain, purchase-order, import/export, or other transaction finance provider | May fund supplier costs, inventory, trade transactions, or another stage before a standard customer invoice is ready for factoring. | What stage is being financed, whose credit matters, whether an invoice exists, and whose agreement you sign. |
| Software, portal, accounting, or transportation technology platform | May provide software, portals, account tools, load-board connections, or infrastructure without buying invoices directly. | Whether the company actually funds invoices, whose agreement you sign, and who services the account. |
| Ranking page, review site, finance publisher, or directory | May compare providers, explain costs, publish reviews, or list companies without funding the invoice. | Who produced the information, whether it is current, and which company actually reviews, funds, and services the account. |
| Broker, marketplace, capital advisory or placement firm, or referral source | May collect a quote request and pass your information to one or more factoring companies instead of reviewing, funding, and servicing the account directly. | Which company reviews the account, provides the quote, funds the invoice, whose agreement you sign, how the intermediary is paid, and who services the account. |
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 and the payment posts to our bank, the written agreement controls how any reserve is handled, less the factoring fee.
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
After account setup, customer approval, invoice verification, required backup, and bank cutoff, we usually send the advance within 24 hours.
Factoring Invoices Since 1979
One customer. One invoice. One call.
You get a person, not a menu:
1-800-231-3878
Trucking, staffing, and manufacturing companies in
Charleston and across South Carolina use us when the wait gets too long.
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.
Your written quote and agreement explain where your customer sends payment and any verification steps required before funding.
The work you completed and the invoice amount do not change. The written payment instructions explain where your customer sends payment.
The last step is the funding, the part you care about most.
That’s when we send the advance.
On every funding you’ll see:
Trucking advances can be as high as 98% of the invoice. After account setup, customer approval, invoice verification, required backup, and bank cutoff, Orange Commercial Credit usually sends the advance within 24 hours.
If a reserve applies, the written quote shows how much is held back. The written agreement controls how that reserve is handled after the customer pays and the payment posts to our bank.
Before you decide, ask how any reserve is handled under the written agreement.
The discount fee depends on:
Whatever the case, you see the advance, any reserve, the fee, and funding timing before you decide.
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.
Orange Commercial Credit provides freight factoring for Charleston carriers that have delivered the load and invoiced a broker, shipper, or other B2B customer. Trucking companies are Orange Commercial Credit’s largest client group.
For Charleston, Charleston County, the Lowcountry, and South Carolina carriers, our team reviews broker or shipper credit and the invoice packet: signed rate confirmation, bill of lading or POD, invoice, and backup for billed extras such as lumper fees or detention.
Charleston freight can involve port freight, drayage, intermodal moves, container loads, warehouse transfers, Wando Welch Terminal, North Charleston Terminal, Hugh K. Leatherman Terminal, I-526, I-26, the Don Holt Bridge, and the Wando River Bridge.
After account setup, customer approval, invoice verification, required backup, and bank cutoff, Orange Commercial Credit usually sends the advance within 24 hours.
You’re here because you’re done waiting to get paid. We buy approved freight invoices so carriers can have money for fuel, repairs, payroll, and other bills before the broker or shipper pays. You may also hear this called trucking factoring, 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?
After account setup, customer approval, invoice verification, required backup, and bank cutoff, we usually send the advance within 24 hours.
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 experience helps our team review the customer, invoice, and backup without making you guess what comes next.
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 run freight through Charleston, the day can turn on Wando Welch Terminal, North Charleston Terminal, Hugh K. Leatherman Terminal, I-526, I-26, the Don Holt Bridge, the Wando River Bridge, Bennett Yard Road, Goer Drive, Ladson, Summerville, Hanahan, rail handoffs, chassis readiness, port gate times, and customer delivery windows.
Around Mt. Pleasant, North Charleston, Ladson, Summerville, and Hanahan, drayage, rail-to-truck transfers, container loads, out-of-gauge freight, oversize cargo, warehouse transfers, and short-haul intermodal runs can all depend on the same ramps, yards, bridges, gates, and driver pool.
At Wando Welch and North Charleston, gate hours, appointments, chassis road-readiness, secure drop yards, and rail-ramp timing can decide whether a short run stays short or turns into an hour-plus delay.
On I-526 and the I-26 connector, port traffic, construction zones, short merge lanes, and bridge limits can slow a truck before it reaches the terminal, rail yard, or warehouse door.
When one port gate, rail-yard wait, chassis repair, I-526 slowdown, I-26 bottleneck, out-of-gauge routing limit, or warehouse appointment runs late, the delivery window gets tighter and the next load starts late.
If the delivery window closes, the load waits.
You still have fuel to buy.
Payroll is Friday. Your customer may still be 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.
After account setup, customer approval, invoice verification, required backup, and bank cutoff, we usually send the advance within 24 hours.
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 are running a heavy-duty pickup with a gooseneck or bumper-pull trailer, one stretch of repair and fuel bills can drain your cash fast.
You could really use a newer tandem-dual trailer, 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 Charleston or anywhere in South Carolina, 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.
Orange Commercial Credit provides payroll funding for staffing companies through invoice factoring. We buy approved unpaid B2B invoices so staffing agencies can have money for payroll before customers pay.
For Charleston staffing agencies, we review the customer, invoice, approved timesheets, and service agreement or customer approval tied to the completed work.
Charleston staffing firms may be filling warehouse, logistics, maritime support, healthcare support, industrial, aerospace, automotive, federal-contractor, technical, manufacturing, or light-industrial shifts across Charleston and the Lowcountry.
After account setup, customer approval, invoice verification, required backup, and bank cutoff, Orange Commercial Credit usually sends the advance within 24 hours so payroll can stay on schedule.
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.
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 orders run through Charleston, the week can turn on North Charleston warehouse shifts, Palmetto Commerce Parkway logistics crews, Ridgeville automotive support, Camp Hall manufacturing roles, Hanahan and Ladson light-industrial work, Charleston healthcare coverage, cleared logistics roles, and worker start times.
Around Clements Ferry Road, Palmetto Commerce Parkway, I-26, Camp Hall, Ridgeville, North Charleston, Hanahan, Ladson, West Ashley, Henry Tecklenburg Drive, and the Joint Base Charleston side, a staffing order can require background checks, credentials, VMS entries, reliable transportation, or same-week availability before the worker clocks in.
Warehouse, aerospace, automotive, van assembly, packing, forklift, logistics, healthcare, clinical, non-clinical, federal contractor, technical, manufacturing, and light-industrial roles can all pull from the same Charleston-area worker list in the same week.
When one worker does not show for the first shift, one credential waits, one background check delays, one VMS entry does not match the timecard, or one I-26 commute does not line up with the start time, the agency still has to fill the shift and run payroll.
If a shift is not filled, the hours are not billed.
You still have rent, insurance, payroll taxes, workers’ comp, and recruiter payroll to pay.
Payroll is Friday. Your customer may still be 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 Charleston manufacturers, we may review the invoice, purchase order, bill of lading, packing list, delivery proof, work ticket, or signed QC paperwork tied to the completed order.
Charleston and Lowcountry manufacturers may be buying raw materials, paying suppliers, scheduling shop work, shipping finished goods, or waiting on customer payment from distributors, maritime customers, aerospace customers, automotive customers, and other commercial accounts.
Port cargo, rail timing, I-26 and I-526 congestion, chassis availability, warehouse space, and inland trucking can all affect when raw materials or finished goods reach the next production or delivery step.
After account setup, customer approval, invoice verification, required backup, and bank cutoff, Orange Commercial Credit usually sends the advance within 24 hours so payroll, materials, and supplier bills can stay on schedule.
If your manufacturing work runs through Charleston, the day can turn on North Charleston, Ridgeville, Ladson, Summerville, Bushy Park, Palmetto Commerce Parkway, Dorchester Road, Camp Hall, I-26, I-526, the Port of Charleston, raw materials, machines, chassis availability, rail timing, and customer delivery dates.
Around Charleston’s aerospace, automotive, van assembly, steel, copper, solar, turbo component, chemical, heavy industrial, and supplier work, one order can require imported materials, machined parts, port cargo, warehouse space, rail handoffs, inspection records, or supplier paperwork before the finished work can turn into a paid invoice.
A shop floor can wait on Wando Welch gate timing, I-26 and I-526 congestion, chassis availability, inland rail lifts, large vessel cargo surges, skilled labor, power demand, or inland trucking from Ridgeville and Summerville before the next production step starts.
When one material lot is late, one machine is down, one inspection waits, one supplier truck misses the dock time, or one rail handoff backs up, the next production step waits too.
If materials are late, the line waits.
Power, rent, supplier invoices, and payroll keep running.
Payroll is Friday. Your customer may still be 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 the customer, invoice, and required backup. After account setup, customer approval, invoice verification, required backup, and bank cutoff, we usually send the advance within 24 hours.
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. After account setup, customer approval, invoice verification, required backup, and bank cutoff, we usually send the advance 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 Charleston and across South Carolina 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 is creditworthy, whether the work is complete, and whether the invoice and backup paperwork can be reviewed and verified.
Things like tax liens or pledged invoices can slow things down, but we'll talk it through with you.
If we can help, we'll say so fast. If not, we'll tell you that too. No guesswork.
Call us and we'll go over one of your customer's invoices together.
At Orange Commercial Credit, our portal shows every invoice and payment—status, paperwork and credit—so you always know where you stand.
You don’t have to wonder
if a payment was posted right.
Your paperwork is handled by our team who’ve been here on average 10 years and know your paperwork and your customers.
At Orange Commercial Credit, you get a dedicated account executive. They know you, your business, and your paperwork. When you call, you get answers right away.
You talk to the same person who knows your account and can explain what is complete and what still needs review.
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.”

No. Invoice factoring isn’t a loan. You sell an invoice for work already done, so there’s no new debt. It’s money that was already owed to you. You just get it sooner.
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 advance, any reserve, the factoring discount fee, and funding timing in writing before you decide.
If a reserve applies, the written agreement controls how it is handled after your customer pays and the payment posts to our bank. Ask for every applicable charge in writing before you decide.
Ask whether any transfer, portal, invoice-submission, due-diligence, termination, or other charge can apply. The written proposal should show the charges for your account before you decide.
This list is here so the numbers don’t 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’re 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’s 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 hasn’t paid by then.
4) Recourse or non-recourse (who takes the loss if your customer doesn’t pay):
Ask what “non-recourse” covers — and what it doesn’t.
5) Customer Credit Concentration limits (how much they’ll fund for one customer):
Ask what the limit is if one customer is a big share of your billing.
6) Reserve:
If a reserve applies, ask how much is held back and what the written agreement says about how it is handled after the customer pays.
7) “Other” delivery fees:
These don’t change the factoring fee. They’re extra costs you may pay to receive funds (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 don’t 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’re 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’re moving to another factor
• If you just don’t need factoring anymore
If they won’t put it in writing, you can’t really compare it.
Yes. Ask what “non-recourse” actually covers before you compare factoring companies. Some non-recourse programs may protect against customer insolvency or bankruptcy, but may not cover disputes, paperwork problems, short-pays, chargebacks, or customer disagreements.
The safest question is simple: if my customer does not pay, what happens next, and when would I still be responsible?
Yes. You choose which invoices to sell. Most clients start with one customer and one invoice, like a completed load, approved staffing invoice, or manufacturing invoice with backup paperwork. You do not have to factor every invoice just to see whether the numbers work.
No. You do not need a large monthly invoice volume just to start the conversation with Orange Commercial Credit. We offer a 90-day factoring agreement with no setup fee and no minimum number of invoices required. Many clients start by reviewing one customer and one invoice before they decide.
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. However, we don't fund most types of construction, third party medical receivables or consumer invoices.
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. We provide freight factoring for Charleston and South Carolina carriers when the broker or shipper is approved, the freight invoice is verified, and the backup paperwork supports the load. That may include the rate confirmation, bill of lading, POD, lumper receipt, detention backup, intermodal paperwork, or other freight support.
After account setup, customer approval, invoice verification, required backup, and bank cutoff, Orange Commercial Credit usually sends the advance within 24 hours. Charleston carriers can start with one customer and one freight invoice to see whether the numbers work.
Yes, through invoice factoring. We are not a payroll processor, PEO, or short-term payroll lender. We buy approved unpaid B2B invoices so Charleston staffing, warehouse, logistics, industrial, healthcare support, and service companies can have money for payroll before customers pay.
The review starts with one customer, one invoice, and the backup paperwork. For staffing, that usually means approved timesheets, the invoice, and the service agreement or customer approval needed to verify the work.
Yes. We provide manufacturing invoice factoring for Charleston and South Carolina suppliers when the customer is approved, the invoice is verified, and the backup paperwork supports the completed order. That may include a purchase order, packing list, bill of lading, proof of delivery, or signed QC paperwork.
After account setup, customer approval, invoice verification, required backup, and bank cutoff, Orange Commercial Credit usually sends the advance within 24 hours so payroll, materials, and supplier bills can stay on schedule.
No. We work with companies in Charleston, across South Carolina, and throughout the United States. If your customer is creditworthy and the work is done, we can look at factoring those invoices.
No. You do not need to visit a factoring office just to start the conversation. Factoring is based on your customer, invoice, and backup paperwork. You can call, email, upload the invoice, or use the portal. We check the customer and paperwork, then show the advance, reserve, fee, and funding timing before you decide.
Orange Commercial Credit is worth comparing if your Charleston business wants written factoring terms before deciding: advance, reserve, fee, paperwork, funding timing, agreement length, setup fees, minimums, invoice choice, customer notice, and account support. We work with Charleston, Lowcountry, South Carolina, and nationwide B2B companies that invoice commercial customers on terms.
Yes. Orange Commercial Credit is an independent factoring company serving businesses nationwide, including Charleston and South Carolina companies that invoice B2B customers on terms. We serve Charleston businesses, but the decision does not depend on a branch address. It depends on the customer, invoice, paperwork, written terms, and funding timing.
No. A Charleston office can be convenient, but the factoring decision still comes down to the invoice, the customer, the paperwork, and the written quote. Ask what advance you receive, what fee you pay, whether a reserve is held, when funding goes out, how customer notice works, and who answers questions after setup. You can compare Orange Commercial Credit by sending one customer and one invoice for review, then seeing the numbers in writing before you decide.
Start with the numbers and the service behind them. Ask each factoring company to show the advance, reserve, fee, paperwork needed, funding timing, agreement length, minimums, and who answers after the invoice funds.
The best fit is the company that lets you see those details before you decide.
You should see the advance, any reserve, the fee, the paperwork needed, and when funding can go out after customer approval, account setup, and invoice verification.
If those numbers are not in writing, you cannot really compare the quote.
Orange Commercial Credit buys approved unpaid invoices from Charleston businesses. You send the invoice and backup paperwork. We review the customer, invoice, and required backup. After account setup, customer approval, invoice verification, required backup, and bank cutoff, Orange Commercial Credit usually sends the advance within 24 hours.
No. They keep the same price and terms from you.
As the last step in the funding process, we contact your customer to verify the invoice and set up the payment change of address.
If your customer has a question or something’s missing, you work it out with them directly. Once it’s fixed, we move the funding forward.
Most of our team’s been here ten years or more. They spot issues early, so you’re not waiting long once everything’s approved.
The terms are sometimes used loosely, but they do not always describe the same product. Invoice factoring means the company buys an approved invoice for completed B2B work.
Accounts receivable financing may mean a loan or credit line secured by receivables. Ask whether the provider buys the invoice or lends against the receivables, and what collateral, repayment, reporting, and agreement terms apply.
No. Purchase-order financing may fund supplier costs before goods are completed and before an invoice exists. Supply-chain or reverse factoring is often arranged around a buyer and approved payables. Import/export finance may fund goods or trade transactions at another point in the sale.
Invoice factoring begins after the goods or completed work have been delivered, the customer can be reviewed, and the invoice and required backup support the bill.
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:
After account setup, customer approval, invoice verification, required backup, and bank cutoff, Orange Commercial Credit usually sends the advance 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
Once the advance is sent, you can use the funds for payroll, fuel, shop bills, or other business expenses.
That’s why we tell owners:
if the numbers make sense, don’t wait.
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.
