FAQ
Questions about Merchant Cash Advance in Boston
Real answers to the questions Boston business owners ask before applying.
An MCA is a lump-sum advance against future credit-card or bank-deposit revenue. You repay via a fixed daily/weekly debit or a percentage of card sales until a fixed total (factor amount) is paid back.
MCAs are the fastest funding product available — most files fund same-day or next-day with 3 months of statements and a short application.
MCAs are priced with a factor rate (e.g., 1.25–1.49) rather than APR. Total cost is higher than bank loans, which is the trade-off for speed and credit flexibility. Make sure the funded use earns more than the cost.
Yes. MCA underwriting focuses on bank deposits and card-processing volume rather than FICO. Approvals with credit under 600 are common when revenue is consistent.
