What lenders look for.

The specifics that make or break a facility in this sector.

No physical deliverable

There is no pallet to inspect, so verification leans on the signed statement of work, milestone sign-off and evidence the deliverable was accepted. Clean paperwork gets you a higher advance.

Work in progress is not fundable

Unbilled time and jobs still in production usually sit outside the facility. Lenders advance against raised, payable invoices, so tight billing discipline directly improves cash.

Pass-through media spend

Large media buys on a thin agency margin distort the ledger. Some lenders fund the gross invoice, others only the fee element, so how the invoice is structured changes what you can draw.

Client concentration

One or two accounts often make up most of the book. A single client over 30 to 40% of the ledger can trigger a concentration limit, though specialist lenders will price around a strong retainer.

Common questions.

Yes. Recurring monthly retainers are among the most fundable invoices you can raise because the billing is predictable. Project fees and time-and-materials invoices can be funded too, provided the work is signed off and billed.
