Estimated for purposes of calculating the amount of the filing fee
only. FlexShopper, Inc. (the “Company”) is offering holders of all of the Company’s outstanding
$1.25 per share warrants (the “Public Warrants”) the opportunity to exchange the Public Warrants
for shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”), by tendering
one Public Warrant in exchange for 0.62 Shares. The Public Warrants were issued by the Company in a registered public offering
made pursuant to the Company’s prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)
pursuant to Rule 424(b)(5), dated September 25, 2018, as amended by post-effective amendment No. 1 filed with the SEC on May
7, 2019. The amount of the filing fee assumes that all of the outstanding Public Warrants will be exchanged and is calculated
pursuant to Rule 0-11(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The transaction value was determined
by using the average of the high and low prices of the Public Warrants as reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market on January
3, 2020, which was $1.41.
