The Direct Fund Program

A Direct Alternative to Bank Loans

How It Works

A merchant cash advance provides upfront capital in exchange for a fixed daily or weekly remittance, calculated against your business's revenue at the time of funding. Your repayment amount is set at origination and stays consistent for the term of the advance — a clear, predictable schedule to plan around, even through a seasonal business cycle.

Whether your business is gearing up for peak tourist season, covering a delayed client payment, or managing an unexpected expense, Smart Business Funding's MCA solutions help you access capital quickly — without the extended timeline of a bank application.

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can I get business funding in Massachusetts?+

No. Smart Business Funding's core Direct Fund Program (merchant cash advance) does not require collateral. Some partner-placed products, such as equipment financing or asset-based financing, may involve the asset itself as security.
What credit score do I need to qualify in Massachusetts?+
Smart Business Funding accepts credit scores as low as 500, verified through a soft credit pull that does not affect your credit score.

Is a merchant cash advance the same as a business loan?+
