Pages in this SectionWhat is invoice insurance?
Invoice insurance protects your business against the risk of non-payment. If a customer becomes insolvent, delays payment, or defaults altogether, your insurer will reimburse a portion of the owed amount typically up to 90%.
It’s a way of de-risking your accounts receivable process, helping you plan ahead and secure finance without being held back by unpaid invoices.
