Merchant Cash Advance
Fast, Flexible Finance:
A Merchant Cash Advance (MCA) is different than a loan in that the lender essentially pre-purchases some of your credit card transactions, “advancing” the money to you. The lender will “own” some of your future sales, and will collect the money from those sales. Unlike loans, cash advances technically don’t have an interest rate, or a set repayment period. Instead, you repay the lender who takes a percentage of your credit card sales each day until you’ve repaid the balance and the fee agreed upon.
Applications are welcomed from all UK based limited companies, sole traders and (unincorporated) partnerships. MCA offer flexible finance solutions for all UK businesses. That includes retailers, restaurants, hotels, pubs, hairdressers, beauty salons, service providers and more. Businesses use MCA for all sorts of purposes, from bridging short-term cash flow gaps to purchase stock or refurbishments
In particular it aims to help those SMEs that find accessing any kind of fast working capital advance difficult when looking at more conventional options. Often barriers to this finance include being a tenant, having little stock of any value or dealing in perishable stock, or even a mediocre credit history – our underwriting looks for the story, not just the score.
