Factor rate products (MCA, short-term) use a multiplier on your advance — e.g. 1.30× means you repay $1.30 for every $1.00 borrowed. APR products (line of credit, SBA) use annual interest. All rates shown are estimates. Actual offers depend on your full application.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about comparing business loan options.

A Merchant Cash Advance (MCA) is repaid as a percentage of your daily sales and is approved based on revenue, not credit score. A traditional business loan has fixed scheduled payments. MCAs are faster and easier to qualify for; traditional loans have lower overall cost.
Revenue-Based Funding (MCA) is the fastest — approval can happen within hours and funding arrives within 24 hours. Short-term loans typically fund in 1–3 business days. SBA loans take 2–4 weeks due to government processing.
Most business lines of credit require a minimum credit score of 580. Some lenders approve at 560+ with strong monthly revenue. Premium lines of credit with the best rates typically require 650 or higher.
SBA 7(a) loans generally require a credit score of 650+, 2+ years in business, $75,000+ in annual revenue, and U.S. citizenship or permanent residency. The trade-off for stricter requirements is lower interest rates (10.5–13% APR) and longer repayment terms.
Yes. Revenue-Based Funding (MCA) approves applicants with credit scores as low as 500, based primarily on your monthly bank deposits. If your business generates consistent revenue of $10,000+ per month, you have a strong chance of approval regardless of credit history.
