Merchant Cash Advance —
the most popular option for card-taking businesses.

If your business takes card payments, an MCA lets you borrow against your future card revenue. Repayment happens automatically as a small percentage of daily sales — so you pay more when business is good, and less when it's quieter.

Why businesses choose MCA

  • No security or collateral required
  • Repayments flex — a small % of daily card sales, nothing fixed
  • One clear total cost — no APR, no late fees, no hidden charges
  • Approval within 24 hours, funded within days
  • Access up to 12 months of average monthly card revenue
  • Terms from 3 to 24 months — choose what suits your business

Business funding FAQs.

What is a merchant cash advance and how does it work?+
A merchant cash advance is a lump sum of funding based on your average monthly card revenue. Instead of a fixed monthly repayment, you repay via a small percentage of your daily card sales. Repayments are automatic and proportional — you pay more when trading is good, and less when it's quieter.
How quickly can I get funded?+
In most cases, a decision is made within 24 hours of application. Once approved, funds are typically received within a few business days.
Do I need to provide security or collateral?+
For a Merchant Cash Advance, no security is required. For other products such as secured loans, asset finance, and property finance, security may be required depending on the amount and structure.
What can I use the funding for?+
Most purposes are accepted — stock, equipment, refurbishment, marketing, hiring, bridging cash flow gaps, or general working capital.
What's the minimum and maximum I can borrow?+
We can help with funding from £5,000 up to £50m, depending on the product and your business profile.
