Merchant Business Cash Advance
.
The product is a multi-billion dollar industry in the US and has a hold in this
country with the competition just scratching the surface at present.
Based on the value of the monthly transactions passing through the prospects PDQ machine the Merchant
Cash Advance is a simple short term unsecured advance. Repayment comes from utilising a percentage of
the credit and debit card takings and is geared to be repaid within a 6 month term. However, unlike
conventional loans there is no fixed sum monthly repayment for this cash advance, just a fixed percentage
on each transaction. This gives the prospect some comfort in that if card takings fall for a couple of weeks so
does the amount repaid whilst the percentage taken remains the same. The converse is true in that if they
have a bumper week the advance is repaid quicker. There is also a mechanism for topping up the advance
after 5 months so in effect it could become a revolving facility.
We are not concerned what the funds are used for, within reason!! Stock, refurbishments, VAT payments,
marketing/advertising, bridge insurance claim etc. etc. and it is suitable for any retail business that takes
credit and debit card payments through a PDQ machine. Internet sales are however excluded from the
product.
Target market can include pubs, restaurants, hairdressers, florists, dentists, MOT/Repair garages, garden
centres, opticians, vets, etc.
Qualifying Criteria: -
•
Been operating the business for a minimum of 12 months
•
Have at least 12 months PDQ statements
