A low score is part of the story, not all of it

Plenty of solid Maryland businesses have owners with bruised credit. Maybe a medical bill went to collections, a past venture closed, or cards ran high during a hard year. Banks often stop reading at the score. We look further.

Merchant Fund Express considers FICO scores from 500 and puts real weight on the health of your business bank account. If deposits are steady and the business is established, a lower score does not end the conversation.

How we weigh your file

Credit is one factor among several. We also look at:

No single factor decides the outcome, and every file is reviewed on its own.

Products available

Depending on your deposits and needs, options may include a merchant cash advance in Maryland, working capital, a business line of credit, equipment financing, or revenue-based financing. Funding ranges from $25,000 to $5,000,000.

The process

Fill out the 5-minute application. We start with a soft credit pull, which does not affect your score, and review about three months of business bank statements. No tax returns are required, and sole proprietors can apply. Your offer shows the full repayment amount and schedule before you accept. Qualified businesses can be funded in as little as 24 hours.

Be honest about the reason for the money

Funding works best when it pays for something that brings revenue back: inventory for a busy season, a repair that gets a crew back to work, or materials for a sold job. If the business is losing money each month, more funding can make that harder. We would rather talk through that honestly than push an offer that strains your cash flow.

Why we look past the score

A credit score reflects personal history. Your bank statements show how the business is running today. A Hagerstown auto shop with steady weekly deposits and few overdrafts can tell a stronger story than the score alone suggests, and that is the story we read closely.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the lowest credit score you consider?

We consider FICO scores of 500 and above. Your deposit history carries significant weight.

Will applying lower my score?

We start with a soft credit pull, which does not affect your score.

Do past collections mean I will be declined?

Not automatically. We review the whole file, including deposits, balances and existing obligations, before making any decision.

Do I need collateral or tax returns?

We do not require tax returns. We work from about three months of business bank statements and the application.

Can I improve my odds before applying?

Keeping a positive balance, avoiding overdrafts, and routing all revenue through one business account all help your file read clearly.
