WHAT IS THE LENGTH OF PAYBACK?Most clients choose the 5-year term as that provides the lowest monthly payment possible.
-
WHAT IS THE INTEREST RATE WITH ADVANCE FUNDING?Clients deciding to receive Advance Funding estimate the interest costs by calculating the after-tax deduction payment costs. Depending upon what state a client’s business is located in, at the current federal corporate income tax rate of 21% combined with the state corporate income tax rate, the usual, after-tax deduction, simple interest cost will come out to somewhere between 15% to 20% per year times 5 years. Meaning; this will usually cost less than double the cash received upfront (as funding) when paid back over a 5-year period.
-
DOES MY BUSINESS NEED TO PAY OFF ANY EXISTING CASH ADVANCE BALANCES?We do not require that the funds received by the client from the payor be used to pay back any existing MCA balances. There is absolutely no restriction on the use of these funds. The payor will only wire funds to the client’s business bank account, and never to a personal account. What the client does with those funds is totally at the client’s discretion.
-
HOW DOES A BUSINESS APPLY FOR ADVANCE FUNDING?Applying is simple: A. You can use the online application under "Apply Online or Contact Us" in this website, filling out every section. Also, be sure to put the name of the person referring you. Which in this case is "Mark Baltes" B. Attach your business’s last month’s bank statement(s) to a separate e-mail to the person referring you, Mark Baltes at mark@mpbcapitalconsulting.com
-
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR A FULL APPROVAL?Full approvals take 1-2 business days. Then, depending upon your (the client's) responsiveness it will take another 5 - 7 business days for funding. If larger funding amounts (over $50,000) are being pursued those will require multiple transactions. Advance Funding is usually "extra funding" used as a cash infusion that is either added to a cash advance or as an alternative to a cash advance. Clients seeking funding amounts in excess of $200,000 will need other funding sources to achieve their goals. The great thing is that clients can use Advance Funding and will not have to worry about it interfering with any other funding they are seeking. If clients are seeking over $200,000, the Advance Funding Program only goes up to $200,000!!
