Cash Advances

If your business needs cash, a business cash advance could be a great alternative to a traditional business loan. Unlike a business loan, a cash advance provides immediate funding with no collateral, no personal guarantees, simple paperwork, and no fixed monthly payments.

Banking Lending Cash AdvanceIn simple terms, a business cash advance is an advance against your future Visa and MasterCard sales. The repayments are taken automatically from your daily VISA and MasterCard sales, based on a small fixed percentage of the daily amount, until the balance is fully paid. Unlike a traditional business loan, a cash advance has no fixed payment because it gets repaid from daily cash flow of your business. This means that your payments will change as you businesses cash flow changes, so in tighter months your payment is lower.
