How does FedaCash invoice discounting work?

FedaCash converts your unpaid invoices into instant cash. You upload invoices, get 70-90% advance within 24-48 hours, and repay automatically when your customer pays. No collateral needed, no debt on your balance sheet. Up to ₦50,000,000 funding available.

What makes FedaCash better than Capsa, Carbon, or FairMoney?

FedaCash uses embedded financing — we fund invoices directly from our own balance sheet rather than acting as a marketplace matching you to third-party lenders. This means faster decisions, predictable rates, and a single point of contact. Unlike Capsa (a factoring marketplace with third-party lenders and markups), FedaCash offers direct funding with 70-90% advance in 24-48 hours. Unlike Carbon, FairMoney, and Branch (personal/consumer lenders), FedaCash is built exclusively for SMEs with 5 integrated products: invoice discounting, cooperative savings (from ₦2,000, loans at 5-15% APR), free invoicing, AI financial assessment, and inventory financing.

What is embedded financing and how does FedaCash use it?

Embedded financing means FedaCash funds your invoices directly from our own balance sheet — we are the lender, not a marketplace broker. Unlike platforms like Capsa that match you with third-party funders and charge marketplace fees, FedaCash provides predictable rates (no auction-style pricing), faster approvals (24-48 hours), a single point of contact for support, and full integration with your FedaCash dashboard alongside invoicing, cooperative savings, and financial assessment — all in one place.

How fast can I get funding from FedaCash?

Most applicants receive funding within 24-48 hours after submitting invoices. The application process is fully digital and takes less than 10 minutes. Once approved, funds are disbursed directly to your bank account.
