Frequently asked questions

What is a merchant cash advance?

A merchant cash advance (MCA) is a lump sum of capital provided to a business in exchange for a percentage of future credit card sales. Repayment is typically made through daily or weekly deductions from card transactions, so it adjusts with your sales volume. It is not a loan, but a sale of future receivables.

How fast can a Long Island City business get funded?

Once you are matched with a funding partner and your application is approved, funding can often occur within a few business days. The exact timeline depends on the partner's process and how quickly you provide required documentation. We do not guarantee any specific speed.

Does applying affect my credit?

The initial matching process through our service does not affect your credit score. Funding partners may perform a soft pull or hard pull during underwriting, which could impact your credit. We recommend asking each partner about their credit check policy before proceeding.

Do I qualify for small business funding in Long Island City?

Qualification varies by funding partner, but common factors include time in business (usually at least 6-12 months), monthly revenue, and credit card sales volume. Some partners are more flexible than traditional banks. There is no guarantee of approval, and each application is evaluated individually.

Is this really free, and are you a lender?

Yes, our service is completely free for business owners. We are not a lender, bank, or funding source. Merchant Advance Finder is a matching service that connects you with third-party funding partners. We do not make credit decisions or issue funds. You pay nothing to use our service.

Finding the right funding shouldn't feel overwhelming. Tell us about your business, and we'll bring vetted funding partners to you - at no cost and no obligation.
