Explain a predictable dip when you apply rather than letting the numbers speak alone.
A fruit orchard and farm market in Sainte-Anne-des-Monts deposits about $44,000 a month, of which roughly $28,600 comes from card sales. It takes a $20,000 advance for a renovation before the busy season at a 1.18 factor rate, so the total to repay is $23,600. With a 11% holdback on card sales, about $3,146 a month goes to the funder and the advance is repaid in roughly 8 months; in a slower month the payment shrinks with sales.
