Steady public-sector-driven deposits help the file, and a modest request relative to deposits keeps the payment comfortable.

An example in Fredericton

Illustrative arithmetic

A café and bakery depositing about $36,000 a month asks for $15,000 for equipment and a patio. At a 1.25 factor the payback is $18,750, a cost of $3,750. Over roughly 5 months that is about $179 per business day, or close to 10% of monthly deposits.

Total payback: $15,000 × 1.25 = $18,750.
Cost: $3,750.
Payment: about $179 per business day.

Preparing a file from Fredericton

Owners in Fredericton who work in government services and suppliers, technology and professional services, restaurants and cafés usually get the fastest review by sending four recent months of business bank statements that show how deposits behave through a normal and a slower month. A short note explaining any one-off deposit, a seasonal dip or a planned purchase removes most follow-up questions, because the funder can read the pattern without guessing.

If you already carry an advance, include the agreement or a payoff figure so the existing payment is known. A request sized as a modest share of monthly deposits is easier to approve than a maximum request.

Typical starting points

Monthly revenueTypically from around $20,000 a month in deposits for Canadian files. The exact line varies by funder and by file.
