What is a Merchant Cash Advance (MCA)?

A Merchant Cash Advance is a type of financing where you receive a lump sum amount in exchange for a percentage of your future sales. It is typically used by businesses that need quick capital without the complexities of traditional loans.

Our funding comes from various private and institutional investors. We maintain strong partnerships with trusted financial entities to provide your business with the best options.

Merchant Cash Advances are ideal for businesses with consistent sales and a need for quick, short-term capital. This includes industries like retail, hospitality, restaurants, healthcare, and e-commerce. If you have regular daily sales, an MCA can help you fund your operational needs.

Working Capital refers to the funds available for day-to-day operations. An MCA is a type of financing where you receive a lump sum upfront and repay through a percentage of future sales.

Yes, we provide funding for a wide range of industries including retail, hospitality, health care, manufacturing, and services. We cater to the needs of small businesses across various sectors.

Currently, Online Lenders provides funding primarily to US-based businesses. We do not offer financing to businesses located outside the United States at this time.

We typically focus on businesses that have been operational for at least six months. However, we may consider start-up businesses with strong revenue projections or unique opportunities.

Online Lenders works with businesses regardless of credit score. We focus on the performance of your business rather than your personal credit history.

If you’re unable to make timely payments, it’s important to contact Online Lenders. We can discuss your situation and potentially offer an adjusted repayment schedule. Delayed payments may incur additional charges, so open communication is key to avoiding extra fees.

How much of an MCA am I eligible for?

Your eligibility for a Merchant Cash Advance depends on your monthly sales and the financial health of your business. Online Lenders offers up to $5 million, and the amount you qualify for is determined based on your business's ability to repay through future sales.

The application process is straightforward:

  • 1. Fill out the Online Lenders MCA application form.
  • 2. Provide necessary documentation (bank statements, sales history, etc.).
  • 3. Our team reviews your information and makes a funding decision.
  • 4. If approved, the funds are transferred to your business account.

You’ll need to provide your business's financial documents, including recent bank statements, tax returns, and proof of revenue. A detailed list of requirements will be shared with you during the application process.

Typically, it takes 1-3 business days to approve and fund an MCA once your application is submitted. The process may vary depending on the complexity of your business's financials.

MCA offers faster approval and funding, with fewer requirements than traditional loans. There is no need for collateral, and repayment is tied to sales, offering flexibility. In contrast, traditional loans often require excellent credit, collateral, and a lengthy approval process.

To qualify for an MCA, your business should have a minimum of $10,000 in monthly credit card sales or a similar amount in overall revenue. The exact amount may vary depending on your specific business needs and financial health.

To improve your chances of qualifying for an MCA:

  • 1. Maintain consistent, verifiable sales.
  • 2. Keep your business financials in good standing (e.g., managing cash flow and expenses).
  • 3. Provide accurate and up-to-date documents, including bank statements and sales history.

Typically, businesses need to have been operational for at least 6 months to qualify for an MCA. However, exceptions can be made if your business demonstrates strong revenue and future growth potential.

The process is similar to an MCA:

  • 1. Apply through Online Lenders.
  • 2. Provide necessary documentation regarding your current loans and debts.
  • 3. Our team reviews your current obligations and consolidates them into one new agreement.

What is the cost of a Merchant Cash Advance?

The cost of an MCA is determined by a factor rate, not interest. This factor rate is applied to the amount borrowed to calculate the total repayment. The rate depends on your business’s financial health and repayment ability. Typically, the factor rate can range between 1.1 and 1.5.

While MCAs have a factor rate (not traditional interest), delays in repayment can result in increased fees or charges. Be sure to communicate with Online Lenders if you anticipate difficulty in repayment to avoid additional costs.

What types of funding options are available through Online Lenders?

We offer a range of funding options, including:

  • 1. Merchant Cash Advances: Lump sum payments based on future sales.
  • 2. Lines of Credit: Flexible credit lines that you can draw from as needed.
  • 3. Small Business Loans: Fixed amounts that can be repaid over a set period.

Yes, MCA funds can be used for various business needs, including inventory, marketing, payroll, expansion, and more. The flexibility in spending makes it a suitable option for businesses looking to grow or scale operations quickly.

Yes, an MCA can be used to pay off existing debts, particularly if you're struggling to manage multiple creditors.

Currently, Online Lenders provides funding primarily to US-based businesses. We do not offer financing to businesses located outside the United States at this time.

How do I repay the Merchant Cash Advance?

Repayment is made through a percentage of your daily credit card or debit card sales. The amount automatically gets deducted from your sales, making it easy to manage.

Repayment is based on a percentage of your daily credit card or debit card sales. The percentage is fixed and agreed upon at the start of the agreement, so the repayment amount varies with your daily sales volume.

If you’re unable to make timely payments, it’s important to contact Online Lenders. We can discuss your situation and potentially offer an adjusted repayment schedule. Delayed payments may incur additional charges, so open communication is key to avoiding extra fees.

Yes, depending on your repayment history and current business performance, you may be eligible for a renewal of your working capital or a top-up loan.

If your application is not approved, Online Lenders may suggest alternative financing options or advise on steps you can take to improve your chances for future approval. We can also provide advice on boosting your business’s financial health.

Do I need credit card processing to get a Merchant Cash Advance?

Yes, a Merchant Cash Advance typically requires credit card processing, as repayment is linked to a percentage of your daily sales.

No, you do not need to change your business bank account. Funds will be deposited into your existing account, and repayments will be deducted from it.

  • 1. Higher cost than traditional loans due to factor rates.
  • 2. Repayment is tied to sales, so during low sales periods, it can be more difficult to repay.
  • 3. No credit score improvement.

We typically provide funding across most industries, but we do not fund businesses involved in illegal activities, adult entertainment, or those that are highly speculative.
