Fees & Repayments
We offer a factor rate. A factor rate is expressed as a decimal figure not a percent. It varies based on things like your industry, how long you have been in business, and the health of your cash flow. When a factor rate is used, interest is charged to the principal when the loan is originated, it doesn’t compound.
There are no hidden fees for our business loans, and you’ll know exactly how much you need to pay and when from day one. There’s no compounding interest, no penalties for early repayment and no additional fees (as long as you make your payments on time).
You can choose to repay the entire amount of your loan early at any time. If you choose to repay your entire loan early, Our lender will provide you with a discount on the remaining interest that is payable on your loan. The level of discount applied to your repayment amount will depend on how far you are into the loan term and will be at least 25% of the remaining interest payable on your loan. There are no additional fees for early repayment and no balloon payment at the end of your loan. Any outstanding late fees or default fees will not be waived. Once you make the final payment your balance will be $0.

About Business loans
Asset-based borrowing is when a business owner uses an asset they own to secure a loan. The asset can be either a personal asset like the family home, or a business asset like a truck or piece of equipment. The vast majority of lenders, including the big banks, tend to secure loans against an asset. If you have trouble paying back the loan then your asset may be sold by the lender. In essence it’s a way of securing new financing by using the value of what you already have.
Our lender considers the health of a business to determine creditworthiness. For loans up to $100,000 no security is required to access the money. As long as you follow your loan obligations (as detailed in your loan contract document), security will never be required. For loans of over $100,000 our lender takes security in the form of a charge over assets. Our lender does not generally take mortgage over a borrower’s home.
