USE CASES

Financing that solves real challenges for staffing agencies across all growth stages, and cash flow needs

Scaling to meet new contract demands with the flexibility of payroll funding

OVERVIEW

A staffing agency secured a new national client requiring over 150 contract workers across multiple states within 30 days.

CHALLENGE

The agency needed to onboard and pay new temps weekly, but client payment terms were net-60—creating a serious cash flow gap.

SOLUTION

eCapital provided payroll funding tied to approved invoices, giving the agency immediate access to working capital and enabling them to meet demand without delay.

Covering payroll with extended payment terms from clients

OVERVIEW

A regional staffing agency specialising in healthcare placements secured a large new contract with a hospital network requiring over 100 new hires within 30 days.

CHALLENGE

The agency needed to recruit, onboard, and pay staff quickly—well before the hospital’s first invoice payment. Traditional bank loans were too slow, and internal reserves weren’t sufficient to front the payroll costs.

SOLUTION

eCapital delivered a tailored payroll funding solution, enabling the agency to meet payroll obligations on time, every time. With access to capital tied to their receivables, the agency scaled operations with confidence, fulfilling the contract without compromising cash flow.

Navigating seasonal surge staffing periods

OVERVIEW

A retail staffing agency faced seasonal spikes during Q4, needing to hire hundreds of temporary workers with limited cash on hand.

CHALLENGE

Although billings would eventually rise, the firm had to pay hundreds of temporary workers weekly, long before receiving payment from client companies operating on 45–60 day terms.

SOLUTION

Payroll funding from eCapital bridged the gap, giving the firm the liquidity needed to meet weekly payroll. The flexibility of the facility meant they could scale funding in line with seasonal needs—ensuring reliable pay for workers and uninterrupted service for clients.

Expanding staffing agency into a new region with working capital that keeps pace

OVERVIEW

A staffing firm expanded into a new geographic market to fulfill a government contract, doubling its payroll overnight.

CHALLENGE

With a limited track record and restricted access to credit, the agency didn’t qualify for a traditional loan but still needed to pay staff weekly while waiting for the first invoice to be paid.

SOLUTION

eCapital offered a startup-friendly payroll funding facility, providing fast access to cash based on approved invoices. This helped the business meet payroll, build credibility with clients, and allowing the agency to grow confidently into new territory.

Frequently asked questions
about payroll funding

What is Payroll Funding?

Payroll funding is a financial service where businesses receive advance payments based on their outstanding invoices or future revenue, primarily to cover payroll expenses. This ensures that employees are paid on time, even if the company is waiting on client payments or experiencing temporary cash flow disruptions. Our payroll funding solutions include both invoice factoring and asset based lending 

How does Payroll Funding work?

Typically, a payroll funding company will advance a percentage of the business’s outstanding invoices or projected revenue. The business can then use these funds to meet its payroll obligations. Once the invoices are paid by the clients, the business repays the advance to the funding company, along with any fees or interest.

What is an asset-based loan?

An asset based loan is a secure loan based on the value of the assets within your staffing agency such as your accounts receivable.

Is Payroll Funding the same as a loan?

No, payroll funding is not a loan. It’s an advance on the business’s own revenue or receivables. This means it typically doesn’t incur debt on the balance sheet, and the qualification criteria may differ from traditional loans.

How long does it take to setup a Payroll Funding solution with eCapital?

The time it takes to set up a payroll funding solution varies and is dependent on the solution and the complexity of your business. Invoice factoring is the fastest, with set-up in days. Asset based loans involve more due diligence and generally take a few weeks.

How fast can I access funds through Payroll Funding?

The speed of access to funds can vary by provider, but here at eCapital, we offer payroll funding services with quick turnaround times, often providing funds within 24 to 48 hours after approval.

What types of businesses use Payroll Funding?

Businesses across various sectors use payroll funding, especially those with inconsistent cash flow or long invoice payment cycles, such as staffing agencies, consulting firms, and companies in the construction, manufacturing, and service industries.
