Use of funds

Paying off a high-cost balance with one schedule you can see.

List each balance, payment, frequency and remaining payback.

✓ Checking what you qualify for does not affect your credit score.

The situation

At Merchant Fund Express, we start from what the money is for, because the use decides the amount, the structure and the timing.

Several advances, a credit card balance and a vendor plan each take a different amount on a different day. The total is not hard to calculate; the timing is hard to live with.

Underwriting leans on bank activity: how much comes in, how steadily, and what the balance looks like between deposits. A request that is tied to a specific, near-term need is easier to size and to approve.

How to size the request

List each balance, payment, frequency and remaining payback. Add them into one monthly figure and compare with a single schedule over a longer term.

An illustration. These are illustrative figures to show the arithmetic, not an offer.

ItemIllustration
Advance A, daily debit$420 a day
Advance B, weekly debit$1,900 a week
Combined monthly outflowabout $17,600
GoalOne weekly payment that leaves more of each week’s deposits in the account

What tends to fit

Before you choose, ask two questions: how long will the money be out, and where will the repayment come from? The answers narrow the options quickly.

What to watch, and what to have ready

Consolidating only to restart borrowing. Close the loop with a budget that prevents re-stacking.

Common questions

Will consolidation cost more in total?

Not necessarily, but a longer term can mean more total dollars. Compare total payback, not just the payment. Merchant Fund Express shows the exact amount, schedule and total cost in your offer before you sign.

How quickly can this be funded?

A person reviews your revenue, time in business and bank activity, and a decision is typically same day. Approved files are usually funded the next business day.

Does checking what I qualify for affect my credit?

No. Checking what you qualify for does not affect your credit score.
