I am already with another financing company providing similar financing. Does that mean I will get approved by Merchant Advisors?
Our credit underwriting standard is slightly higher than that of similar companies; however, approximately 95% of our competitors' customers who applied for our funding have been accepted. The only sure way to find out is by submitting an application. It doesn’t cost you anything to apply. |
|
|
Can I receive financing from Merchant Advisors while the financing from another company is still outstanding?
Yes, but we must pay off any outstanding cash advances out of our first advance to you. (You receive all remaining proceeds). Depending on the particular finance company involved, there may be an exception to this policy, but most other credit card receivable companies will have to be paid off out of the first advance. |

No -- the application is free and there are no up-front fees charged to our customers. The sooner you get your application in, the quicker we can get back to you on the amount of monies we will be able to advance you. |
