The beat-it-or-$250 guarantee

Have an offer?
Bring it.

Comparing business-funding offers is exhausting — and the numbers are built to confuse you. So here's our promise: bring us any written offer. Two ways we beat it: we move you to a cheaper type of funding than the one you were offered — or, if the type you were offered really is right for you, we improve the deal itself: a lower total payback, a lower payment, less frequent debits, or more money. You tell us which of those matters to your business. If we can't beat it, we pay you $250 for your time. Minimum sizes and terms below.

Got it

We're on it.

We'll review your request and call with a real number — usually within the hour during business hours. Keep your offer handy so we can put ours right next to it.

How it works

Three steps. One honest number.

01 — Bring it

Send your offer

Any written offer from a licensed funder or broker, dated in the last 14 days. Or just tell us what you're shopping for — we'll start there.

02 — We compare honestly

Every number, side by side

We put our best option next to yours on the terms that matter: total payback, payment, debit schedule, term, and amount. You see the total payback on both, whichever way the comparison lands — so if an improvement costs you something elsewhere, you can see exactly what. No APR-versus-factor-rate sleight of hand.

03 — You win either way

We beat it, or you get $250

If we improve your deal, you take the better one. If we genuinely can't beat it on anything, we pay you $250 for your time. The conditions are short and they are all published below — a real approval, and a minimum deal size by product.

Why the numbers confuse you

Most funders quote to look cheap. We quote to be compared.

A factor rate isn't an APR. A low payment can hide a brutal total payback. The whole game is making offers hard to line up. We refuse to play it.

The usual pitch
  • "Rates from X%" — that's a factor rate, not an APR
  • Low daily payment, total payback buried
  • One product, because it's the one they sell
  • Fees disclosed after you've signed
How we quote
  • Total payback in dollars, every time
  • Payment, term, and payback shown together
  • Matched to the cheapest option you qualify for — 40+ funders, not one pitch
  • Our fee disclosed before you sign anything
Illustrative example — not a real client

A $120k renewal at a 1.38 factor rate — meaning $1.38 paid back for every dollar — is $165,600 of total payback. The same deal re-priced at 1.24 is $148,800 — $16,800 kept. That's before checking whether a cheaper type of funding was open at all.

What the review needs

One complete package. Then the clock starts.

The answer clock starts when the package is complete — not when you first reach out. Answer within 6 business hours of a complete package.

Why each item: the statements are what funders actually price — they're the review. The application and license verify the business and its owner. The voided check only matters if you accept an option and funding gets set up — we can never debit it, and if you connect your bank instead it's read-only. Everything is encrypted in transit and at rest, visible only to your advisor. And your current funder never hears from us without your okay.

Guarantee terms

  1. What qualifies. A valid written offer from a licensed funder or broker, dated within the last 14 days, for the same business and a comparable product and amount.
  2. What "beat" means. A cheaper option — we move you to a lower-cost type of funding than the one you were offered — or, on the same product, an improvement on at least one of four things: a lower total payback, a lower payment, less frequent debits, or a larger amount. You choose which one matters to your business. Whichever you choose, we show you the total payback on both offers, so you can see what any trade actually costs — total payback, not a headline rate, is always on the table.
  3. We have to be able to fund you. The guarantee runs on a real approval: we must be able to approve your file for at least revenue-based financing. If no funder on our panel will approve the business, there was no offer for us to beat and no payout is due — we will tell you that plainly, and quickly.
  4. Minimum size, by product. The guarantee applies to offers at or above: $25,000 credit card stacking · $40,000 revenue-based financing or equipment financing · $100,000 term loan, line of credit or startup loan · $200,000 SBA 7(a). Invoice factoring is not covered, because it is priced on your monthly invoice volume rather than a funded amount. Below these sizes we will still shop your offer and still tell you honestly if we cannot beat it — there is simply no $250.
  5. The clock. We answer within 6 business hours of a complete package: completed application, bank statements (3 most recent months plus month-to-date), a voided business check, a driver's license, and the written offer.
  6. Verification. With your permission, we may verify the offer with the issuer. We never contact your current funder without your okay. One payout per business per 12 months.
  7. Payout. If we can't beat it, we pay you $250 within 7 days, by whatever method you choose.
  8. Business purpose only. Funding is for commercial use by an operating business. This is not consumer lending.
