What documentation is required to start the financing process?
Air8 strives to make the process straightforward and fuss-free. We generally need a signed agreement between Air8 and the supplier, but that can vary based on your specific needs.
Why did I receive a request from my supplier to pay Air8 on the invoice due date?
Occasionally, suppliers sell their receivables to banks or factoring houses to receive early payment on their invoices. If a supplier has requested for payment to be made through Air8, it means that the receivables have been sold to Air8.
What is the notice of assignment that I received from Air8?
A notice of assignment informs you, the buyer, that a particular supplier has assigned its right to receive payment for particular goods to Air8. You should not be receiving multiple notices of assignment from different financial institutions for the same transactions.
If I have an ongoing financing program with another service provider, can my supplier still obtain financing through Air8?
Air8 can complement any existing financing program provided there is no double financing. Suppliers are free to choose from the most competitive offers available to them.
