3. Get Funded

If approved, access working capital quickly, with funding available as soon as the next business day after final review.

based financing from Lyft Capital

Consistent revenue and healthy sales history should be given the credit they deserve. Traditional business loans might not be the ideal choice for every business scenario. With stricter approval standards, minimum credit score requirements, and extended processing and approval timelines, there are occasions when opting for a traditional business loan simply doesn’t seem feasible.

What makes a revenue based financing worth considering?

There are times when you require $40,000 to increase your inventory or $75,000 to take advantage of a growth opportunity. Emergencies such as equipment needing repair, a leaking roof, or being short on materials for a project demand swift access to cash for an immediate resolution. Moreover, if you operate in an industry that traditional lenders find challenging to comprehend, consider too risky, or your credit score has taken a hit lately, you may face automatic declines. In such diverse situations and many others, revenue-based financing emerges as the vital source of working capital you require to keep your business thriving.

Comprehensive Underwriting

In contrast to conventional loans, having a lower credit score won’t automatically disqualify you. Revenue-based Financing assesses your business’s overall stability and success. Revenue-based financing imposes minimal industry restrictions, and our financing specialists are well-versed in the intricacies of industries often denied by traditional loans.

Personal Safety

Revenue-based financing stands out as one of the few business financing options that limit the personal exposure of business owners, focusing on the business itself rather than personal assets or credit scores during underwriting decisions. No absolute personal guarantees are demanded, and your home won’t serve as collateral.

Streamlined Process

Because your sales history carries significant weight in the approval process, minimal documentation is required. With minimal documentation needed, the underwriting process can be exceptionally swift. Once approved, funds can be in your bank account within 24 hours.

Revenue-Based Financing FAQs

What is revenue-based financing?
Revenue-based financing gives small businesses access to working capital based primarily on business revenue. Payments are structured around future receivables or sales activity, which can make it useful for owners who need flexible capital and may not qualify with a traditional bank.
How fast can Lyft Capital provide funding?
Pre-approval may be available in minutes. If approved after review, funding may be available within 24 hours or as soon as the next business day, depending on the application, documentation, and funding agreement.
Does revenue-based financing require perfect credit?
No. Revenue-based financing is often considered by business owners with strong revenue but imperfect credit. Lyft Capital reviews business performance, revenue, time in business, and other factors to help identify available options.
How much revenue-based financing can I request?
Lyft Capital offers revenue-based financing options up to $500,000 for qualified businesses. Available amounts depend on business revenue, approval review, and the terms presented in the funding agreement.

⭐️ Very Disappointing Experience I provided all of the information requested and was told that someone would call me back within 15–20 minutes. I never received a call back. I followed up numerous times by phone and email trying to get a response or even a status update, but I have either received no response or been unable to get anyone to answer. Communication and follow-through are extremely important, and unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing. If you value your time, I would think twice before using this company. Don’t waste your time.

I originally left a “five star” review based on my initial experience, but after learning more about the terms of my merchant cash advance, I felt it was important to update it. The biggest surprise was discovering that there was no early payoff benefit. In my case, the fee was $9,000, and even if I had paid it off within days or a week of receiving the funds, I still would have had to pay that full $9,000. That was completely unexpected and very different from what I had experienced with other cash advances over the past 11 years. To put that into perspective, if I requested a payoff today, only about two weeks after receiving the funds, my payoff would be the same as if I waited until the full 15-month maturity date. That was shocking to me and something I never expected. I had never encountered a financing arrangement where paying off the balance almost immediately resulted in the exact same payoff amount as paying it off over the full term. I’m sure this information was disclosed somewhere in the agreement, but I relied on my understanding of previous merchant cash advances and trusted that the key terms would be explained in a straightforward way. I had established what I believed was a great working relationship with the person helping me, and because of that trust, I didn’t feel the need to scrutinize every line of the agreement. Looking back, that was my mistake. If there is one lesson I hope others take from my experience, it’s this: even if you completely trust the person you’re working with, even if you’ve built a great relationship with them, read every page of the agreement yourself. Don’t assume they’ll point out the most important terms. Ask specifically whether there is any early payoff discount or reduction, and ask them to show you exactly where that provision appears in the documents before you sign. Don’t be afraid to ask more questions than you think you need to. It could save you thousands of dollars. For me, this experience completely changed how I view merchant cash advances. I don’t expect to use one again, and I hope sharing my experience helps someone else avoid the surprise that I experienced.

Terrible company untrustworthy, they use fake phone numbers to trick you into answering, they spam call all day and promise you a business line of credit just to come back to you with a 40 percent MCA loan!!
