Merchant Cash Advance

When your business needs additional working capital, a small business loan from a bank may not be a viable funding programs option. The small business loan application process is lengthy and time-consuming. The strict loan requirements and terms of the loan can also prevent you from securing the capital you need. Additionally, the type of structured repayment plan could put a squeeze on your future cash flow and delay any planned future growth. With a merchant cash advance funding program or “MCA”, you can access the working capital needed to protect your business from the risks of bank lending and the strict criteria of a bank loan. Your repayments are calculated as a percentage of future sales transactions, so repayment is easy to manage and flexible, so as not to jeopardize your business operation. MCA’s are a very popular form of financing that can provide your small business with a lump sum of capital in exchange for a small percentage of future credit card or debit card sales, which is often easier for many owners to manage each month than a more substantial loan payment.

Timing - Approval in 24 to 48 hours and funding in 2 to 5 days. (Higher FICO and cash flow equals shorter approval and funding timing)

Requirements - 3 to 6 in business with a minimum FICO 500+ and monthly revenue of $10,000.-

Process - Application with 3 most current months of bank statements and/or credit card statements (if the business accepts credit cards).

Approval Amounts - $5000 - $500,000.

Repayment Terms - 4 to 18 months with interest from 18% to 40%

We invite you to learn more about the value of this opportunity for you. There are many benefits to small business lines of credit. They put the financial control of your company, even during turbulent times, back into your hands. Unlike a traditional loan, you can use your line of credit again and again. You can borrow up to a certain amount of money but only pay interest on the actual funds that were borrowed.

Unsecured and Secured Small Business Loans

South Florida Funding Group offers small business owners both unsecured and secured small business loans. An unsecured small business loan is issued and supported by the business owners’ creditworthiness, rather than by any form of collateral. For this type of small business funding, a small business owner must have good personal credit to be approved. The clear advantage is a business owner avoids the risk of putting valuable assets on the line to secure the funding. However, a lender may make up for their increased risk by charging a higher interest rate.
Although an unsecured loan for the business is not backed by collateral, many lenders will require a personal guarantee. A personal guarantee is a promise made by an individual to accept responsibility for the business’ debt if it fails to pay.
We also offer a secured business loan, which is a traditional term loan. This is a loan secured by the asset being acquired or an asset that is already owned. The benefits of a term loan are that you can get up to $5,000,000 in funding with standard loan terms, and it’s easier to obtain than an SBA loan with a faster funding timeline. However, a term loan has a shorter repayment schedule then an SBA loan.

Timing - Approval within 24 hours and funding in 2 – 3 business days.

Requirements - 3 - 6 months in business and a minimum of $100,000 annual revenue.

 Process – Submit a one-page application and your company’s most recent 3 months of banking history or credit card statements (if you accept credit cards) to find out what you’re qualified up too.

Approval Amounts - From $10,000 to $500,000.

Repayment Terms - Repayment is based on a percentage of your companies’ future monthly or weekly revenue. From month to month your revenues may vary allowing your payments to be reduced during these lower revenue periods. (Payments never increase based on an increase in revenues)

 

Equipment Leasing and Financing

South Florida Funding Group offers small business owners the option to either lease or finance their next equipment purchase. Small business equipment leasing and small business equipment financing differ mainly in terms of ownership. An equipment lease lets you rent business equipment from a vendor for a monthly payment, but you don’t own the equipment during the lease term. Equipment finance is a small business loan that allows you to purchase a piece of equipment and use it while making monthly payments. During the loan period, the value of the equipment will be used to secure the loan. Once all payments have been made towards the loan according to its terms, you fully own the equipment.

Timing – Decision within 24 hours
