Financial1’s FLEX Advance represents a groundbreaking approach in small business financing, blending the immediacy of Merchant Cash Advances (MCAs) with the features of a line of credit. Designed as the ultimate emergency fund, FLEX Advance allows merchants to access funds as needed, without the commitment to draw down the full amount offered.
This innovative program means businesses only incur costs on the capital they actually use, offering unparalleled control over cash flow management. Unlike traditional MCAs where fees are calculated on the entire advance, FLEX Advance’s terms are applied only to the withdrawn amount, reducing financial burden and enhancing strategic financial planning. With FLEX Advance, Financial 1 not only provides a safety net for unforeseen financial hurdles but also supports businesses in scaling at their own pace, making it the perfect financial tool for merchants seeking both security and flexibility in their capital solutions.
