Does your business take credit card payments? They can bring you funding with Merchant Cash Advance.
Merchant Cash Advance - also known as Business Cash Advance - can provide a simple way to deal with short-term and seasonal cash issues – or to fund your business growth plans.
Merchant Cash Advance, or Business Cash Advance (MCA/BCA), can provide cash advances which are typically equivalent to your monthly takings.
The advance is then paid back automatically as your customers make card payments. With many conventional lenders still reluctant to lend, it can provide a simple way for businesses, and especially those in the retail sector, to raise the funds they need.
The advantages
An MCA or BCA can bring you the funds you need fast, often in just days. Then it makes repayment automatically, with a set percentage of every credit card payment you take going straight to the lender.
It means your customers repay your cash advance for you.
How it works
The lender will work with your payment processing company, who gives them access to your recent transactions.
You request a cash advance up to your monthly card takings, which you can use any way you wish.
The lender then takes a set percentage of every card transaction your business takes until your cash advance and their fee are paid off.
How much can you borrow?
Most lenders will advance a maximum of one month’s takings. They may look at an average of 3 months trading to get a representative figure.
Can you get a Business Cash Advance?
Technically an MCA/BCA is not a loan because it provides the money as an advance on your projected takings. This may mean that even businesses with an impaired credit rating may be able to use them to raise the cash they need.
It is also very simple to arrange. Because you already have a business arrangement with your card service provider, there should be no need for the usual checks and underwriting that are required if you apply for a loan.
If you use a card terminal - a PDQ machine - you can apply. Because the lender can see what the business makes over an average month they can agree a loan amount and repayment rate fast. You can get cash in days, making it a great option if you don’t have assets, or need finance fast.
