What is Purchase Order Financing?
Purchase order finance, or PO financing, is a sort of capital that enables small firms to fulfill client orders even when they lack the requisite cash flow or credit. PO financing is a third-party financial institution’s advance payment provided to suppliers or manufacturers, which is subsequently reimbursed by the firm after the products or services are delivered to the client.
Purchase Order Financing Costs
Monthly financing costs for purchase orders are typically 2%-6% of the total order amount. This may not seem like a lot now, but keep in mind that these charges may mount up. A loan with a monthly rate of 3.5% would have an annual percentage rate (APR) of almost 40%.

How Does Purchase Order Financing Work?
- Financing purchase orders or purchase order loans allow small businesses to fulfill orders they can't afford to finance on their own.
- The business applies for purchase order financing and if approved, the financing company covers up to 100% of the supplier's costs.
- The financing company pays the supplier directly, either with cash or a letter of credit, once they approve the application.
- The customer receives their order and the business sends them an invoice, along with an invoice copy to the financing company.
- The customer pays the financing company directly, and once the finance company receives payment, they deduct their fee and transfer the remaining balance to the business.
