back to merchant cash advance
How can a merchant cash advance help fund my business needs?
We offer a working capital program designed to help you manage your cash needs by providing you with a more responsive alternative to traditional bank lending.
Top
How does the program work?
Our products offer a way to get the money needed for your business operations. The most important thing to remember is that it’s not a loan, so there are no loan payment books, no dealing with people who don’t understand your business, none of the traditional bank hassles. Merchant cash advance transactions are based upon your future credit and debit sales. We purchase a portion of these future credit and debit sales at a discount. To settle your obligation, we retrieve a fixed percentage of daily credit sales when they are “batched” - it is as simple as that.
Top
How do I know if I qualify?
You must have been in business for more than 12 months, have at least $3000 in credit card transactions per month, and meet a few other simple requirements.
Top
What can I use the money for?
Most of our customers use the money for business-building needs like adding more seats to their restaurants, advertising or stocking up on seasonal merchandise. Others have used it to buy out a partner or for emergency needs like unforeseen maintenance issues that could interrupt your business. You are free to spend the money on whatever is best for your business.
Top
How soon can I get the money?
The average time from receipt of a contract to funding is usually 10-14 working days.
Top
Do I need to change credit-card processors?
You need to process your credit cards through San Diego Merchant Services, Inc.
Top
What kind of discount do I get if I pay early?
Since this is not a loan, there is no monthly payment schedule. We get paid when you get paid, therefore, there is no discount for early payment. You are free to settle your obligation early if you wish.
Top
Why do you have to review my personal credit?
We use a business-friendly scoring model that blends general economic data, business and guarantor information to assess risk. Considering your personal credit is a part of the process.
Top
What qualifies as proof of ownership?
Articles of incorporation, board-meeting minutes, a corporate tax return or a business license showing the guarantor’s name as an owner are all great proofs of ownership.
Top
How often are payments retrieved?
We collect a small percentage of your daily credit card sales as they are settled or "batched."
Top
Will I get a monthly statement?
Yes, you will receive a printed monthly statement. You may also view your daily statements online by logging into a private and secure website.
Top
What do you mean by “gross volume”?
Gross volume refers to your total receipts from all sources, including cash, credit cards, debit cards and checks.
