A worked example from Saint-Amable

The arithmetic

A residential renovation contractor in Saint-Amable with about $72,000 in monthly deposits takes $32,000 to buy materials for booked jobs at a 1.20 factor rate, for a total payback of $38,400 over about 7 months. That works out to roughly $1,267 a week, or about 8% of monthly deposits; the cost is fixed at $6,400 however quickly it is repaid on schedule.

From Saint-Amable application to funding

As a rough guide, Canadian files usually start around $20,000 a month in deposits. A year or so of trading history and a healthy balance matter too. Credit from 500 is considered; 600+ widens the options. None of this is guaranteed and it varies by funder. Documents are light: application and recent bank statements. Ready? Begin the application.
