Merchant Cash Advance (MCA) Funding
Fast, Flexible Business Capital — Get Funded in as Little as 24 Hours
If your business needs fast working capital without the red tape of traditional loans, a Merchant Cash Advance (MCA) may be the ideal solution. At Smart Business Funding, we provide direct merchant cash advances designed for speed, flexibility, and real-world business needs.
What Is a Merchant Cash Advance?
A merchant cash advance is a form of business funding where a company receives a lump sum of capital in exchange for a percentage of future revenue. Instead of fixed monthly payments, repayment is tied directly to your business’s daily or weekly sales.
This makes MCAs especially attractive for businesses with fluctuating revenue, seasonal income, or limited access to bank financing.
How Does a Merchant Cash Advance Work?
Apply Online – Minimal paperwork required
Fast Review – Approvals often within hours
Get Funded – Funds deposited as fast as 24 hours
Flexible Repayment – Payments adjust with your sales
Repayment is collected automatically as a small percentage of your daily or weekly revenue, helping preserve cash flow during slower periods.
Merchant Cash Advance Requirements
Qualifying for an MCA is easier than qualifying for a traditional loan.
Typical requirements include:
- Minimum monthly revenue (often $10,000+)
- At least 3–6 months in business
- Active business checking account
- Credit score flexibility (bad credit OK)
We focus more on business performance, not just credit history.
