A low score does not end the conversation

Plenty of Massachusetts owners run solid businesses with a credit report that tells a rougher story. A medical bill from years ago, a tough stretch after a lease ended, a personal card that ran high while the business was getting started. Banks in Boston and across the Commonwealth tend to weigh that history heavily. We look at it too, but it is one factor among several.

Merchant Fund Express considers FICO scores of 500 and up. What carries more weight in our review is how money moves through your business bank account today.

How funders weigh credit next to deposits

When a funder reviews a file with lower credit, the question is whether the business itself shows the capacity to repay. That usually comes down to:

None of these is a pass or fail switch on its own. They are weighed together.

Massachusetts businesses we see

The state's economy runs from hospitals, labs and universities in Greater Boston to restaurants, contractors, auto shops and retailers in Worcester, Springfield and Lowell. Then there is the seasonal side: Cape Cod, the Islands and the Berkshires lean hard on summer and fall traffic, and coastal businesses tied to fishing see their own cycles. A seasonal business with lower credit can still show a predictable pattern of deposits across the year, and that pattern matters.

Products available with lower credit

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

Getting started

The application takes about 5 minutes and begins with a soft credit pull. Send about three months of business bank statements; no tax returns are required. Sole proprietors can apply. Your offer shows the full repayment amount and the repayment schedule before you accept, and funding can arrive in as little as 24 hours for qualified businesses.

Frequently Asked Questions

What credit score do I need for a business loan in Massachusetts?

We consider FICO scores of 500 and up. Your score is weighed alongside your deposits, existing obligations and time in business, so no single number decides the outcome.

Will applying hurt my credit?

We start with a soft credit pull, which does not affect your score. You can see where you stand before going further.

Do I need tax returns?

No. We review about three months of business bank statements instead of tax returns.

My business is seasonal on the Cape. Can I still apply?

Yes. Seasonal businesses can apply. We look at the deposit pattern across your statements, and a predictable seasonal rhythm is something funders can work with.

How fast is funding?

Funding can arrive in as little as 24 hours for qualified businesses once you accept an offer.
