The Process

Five steps
to funded

01
Submit Your Invoice
Send the invoice with all supporting documentation — purchase order, proof of delivery or shipment, and buyer acceptance. All documents must be in final form.
Same day
02
Credit Review & Approval
Mangrove reviews the invoice and buyer against our underwriting criteria. We confirm deal structure — including recourse terms and any credit enhancement requirements — and notify you of the advance amount.
1–2 business days
03
Advance Disbursed
Funds wired to your account at the agreed advance rate. A factoring service fee is deducted at disbursement. Interest begins accruing from the date of advance.
Wire upon approval
04
Buyer Assignment Notice
The buyer is formally notified the receivable has been assigned to Mangrove and directed to remit payment to our account. We manage this communication and coordinate with the buyer's AP team.
Issued at advance
05
Settlement
When the buyer pays, Mangrove applies collected funds against outstanding principal and accrued interest. Any reserve balance is remitted to you promptly. Monthly statements detail all open positions.
Upon buyer payment
FAQ

Common questions

What documents are required with each invoice?
The invoice, the underlying purchase order, proof of delivery or shipment, and written buyer acceptance. Proforma invoices must be converted to final form before submission.
What's the difference between recourse and non-recourse?
Non-recourse: if the buyer fails to pay due to insolvency or protracted default, that loss is absorbed by Mangrove. Recourse: unpaid amounts revert to the vendor. Structure is determined at underwriting based on buyer profile and deal terms.
When will I know if credit insurance is required?
At the approval stage, before any advance is made. If credit enhancement is required, we'll tell you upfront with full transparency before you commit to anything.
How quickly can I receive an advance?
Typically within 1–2 business days of a complete submission. Once a buyer is approved in our system, subsequent invoices to that buyer can move faster.
Is there a minimum volume commitment?
No. Individual invoices must be $10,000 or more. We work across a range of program sizes — from single-buyer programs to larger revolving facilities.
What happens if a buyer pays late?
Interest accrues daily on the outstanding advance balance until payment clears. We manage resolution directly with the buyer. Treatment depends on whether the facility is recourse or non-recourse.
