Why owners find it straightforward

No score impact to begin

A soft pull opens the review. Your credit work with us is not affected.

Revenue-led review

Deposits, balances and existing payments carry most of the weight. FICO 500 and up is considered.

Clear offer terms

Amount, schedule and total repayment are all in writing before you accept.

Fast for complete files

Qualified businesses can be funded in as little as 24 hours after signing.

Before you start

Many TrueCredit Partners clients are scaling: a new location, a bigger contract, more inventory. Their credit report is still catching up with the business. Merchant Fund Express is the funding partner we chose for that situation, and its process is short when you come prepared.

Use the same legal business name on everything, include every page of each statement, and list any current advances honestly. Missing pages are the most common reason a file slows down.

Reading the offer the right way

Separate three things: what lands in your account, what you pay back in total and the size and timing of each payment. The payment matters most day to day. Test it against your slowest recent month. If it is tight, ask for less or a longer schedule. You are free to decline any offer.

Who this is for

The partnership serves established businesses, generally doing $60K or more a month. TrueCredit Partners does not make funding decisions; Merchant Fund Express does, based on its own review.

Keep in mind

Credit repair and business funding are separate services. Credit repair is not required to apply, funding does not improve a credit score, and every offer is subject to Merchant Fund Express's review. Learn more about our funding partner or read how business funding works.
