How does FeeFunders work?

FeeFunders works in 3 simple steps: 1) Businesses register for free (takes 5 minutes). 2) When they complete work, they submit the invoice through the portal. The client applies for a payment plan and we do an instant credit check. 3) Once approved and the client's first instalment clears, we pay the business 100% of the invoice amount. The client then repays us over 3, 6, or 12 months. FeeFunders manages all collections and follow-ups.

Is FeeFunders free for businesses?

Yes, FeeFunders is completely free for businesses. There are no setup fees, no monthly costs, and no hidden charges. Businesses receive 100% of their invoice amount. The clients who choose to spread their payments pay the interest fees (2.33% per month) and loan setup fee ($240), not the business.

How quickly do businesses get paid?

Businesses get paid 100% of their invoice after the client's first instalment has been successfully processed and cleared. This typically takes 7-10 days from the time of application. This is much faster than waiting 30-90 days for clients to pay invoices in full.

What industries does FeeFunders work with?

FeeFunders works with service-based businesses across New Zealand including: Accountants, Lawyers, IT & Software Providers, Healthcare & Dental, Home Services & Contractors, Consultants & Engineers, B2B Suppliers, Education & Training, Event & Wedding Services, Funeral Services, Creative & Marketing Agencies, Agriculture & Rural Services, and Security Services.

What are the loan amounts and terms?

FeeFunders works with invoices from $500 to $50,000 NZD. Clients can choose to pay over 3, 6, 9, or 12 months, depending on what works best for their budget. The interest rate is 2.33% per month (27.96% per annum) for personal loans.

What happens if a client doesn't pay?

FeeFunders manages all customer repayments, collections, and follow-ups. Once the business has been paid their invoice amount, the ongoing repayment management sits with FeeFunders. If a customer defaults, FeeFunders pursues recovery of the outstanding amount. This means businesses can focus on their work instead of chasing payments.

Where does FeeFunders operate?

FeeFunders operates throughout all of New Zealand, including Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Hamilton, Tauranga, Dunedin, Napier, Hastings, Queenstown, and all other regions. It is a New Zealand-owned and operated service.

How do I sign up my business to FeeFunders?

Signing up is simple and free: Go to feefunders.co.nz/additional-resources/business-sign-up, complete the online form (takes about 5 minutes), and submit your business details. FeeFunders will verify your information and approve you within 24 hours. There's no obligation to use the service after signing up.

What is the difference between FeeFunders and traditional business loans?

Unlike traditional business loans where the business borrows money and pays interest, FeeFunders is invoice financing where the business gets paid 100% upfront for completed work. The business pays nothing - their client pays the interest fees. Traditional loans require the business to take on debt and make repayments. With FeeFunders, there's no debt for the business, no setup fees, and no monthly costs.

Can I use FeeFunders for recurring clients?

Yes, there is no set limit on how many invoices you can submit through FeeFunders. Invoice submissions are subject to ongoing assessment of your business and capacity. Many professional firms submit invoices regularly through FeeFunders for different clients.
