Keeping a Philadelphia business funded between paydays

Many Philadelphia businesses do steady work but get paid slowly. Contractors renovating rowhomes wait on draws, vendors serving hospitals and universities wait on purchasing departments, and distributors carry inventory for weeks before it sells. Working capital fills that gap so you can make payroll and take the next job.

We fund established businesses with steady deposits, from $25,000 up to $5,000,000. The amount depends mainly on deposits and existing obligations.

For illustration

A Northeast Philly plumbing company wins a multi-unit renovation and needs to buy fixtures and hire a helper before the first payment. A Kensington wholesaler wants to buy in bulk ahead of the holiday season. A home health agency needs to cover payroll while billing catches up. These are illustrations, not quotes; your own numbers come from your statements.

What we need from you

No tax returns required. We consider FICO 500+, and sole proprietors can apply. Your offer shows the full repayment amount and the repayment schedule before you accept, and qualified businesses can be funded in as little as 24 hours. Apply now.

How the amount is set

We base the amount mostly on what your bank statements show. That means average monthly deposits, how steady they are from month to month, how often the account runs negative, and what you already pay toward other loans or advances. A Roxborough landscaping company with a strong spring and summer will look different on paper from a Center City accounting firm with even monthly billing, and we account for that. Credit history is one factor; we consider FICO scores from 500 up.

Owners sometimes ask for the largest number possible. We suggest working backward instead: start with the specific cost you need to cover, such as a materials order or two payroll cycles, and request that. A request tied to a clear use is easier to evaluate and easier to repay. Once you have an offer, check the full repayment amount and schedule against your cash flow during your slowest month before you accept.
