What a split-funding advance really takes.

Many advances do not take a flat daily amount. They take a fixed percent of your card sales, called a holdback or split. Enter your numbers to see your real daily remittance, an estimated term, and the true cost. An advance is not a loan, so the figures below are estimates for comparison, not a contractual APR.

Your numbers

Enter an advance amount above $0.

The cash you receive. The fee is set on this amount by the factor.

Enter a factor rate above 1.00 (typically 1.10 to 1.50).

A flat multiplier. 1.40 means you repay $1.40 for every $1 advanced.

Enter your average daily card sales above $0.

Card and debit sales on a typical business day. Slow days take less, busy days take more.

Percent of each day's card sales 12%
5%25%

Often 8 to 20 percent. Higher means more is taken each day and the term is shorter.

It understates the real cost.

True APR-equivalent

Because it is a percent of sales

A slow stretch stretches the term out. A busy season clears it sooner. The total cost stays the same either way, it is locked in by the factor.

Read it this way: the slower your sales, the longer you pay. A busy season finishes the advance faster, which packs the same fixed fee into fewer days and pushes the APR-equivalent up. The dollars of cost never move, only the time and the annualized rate do.

This is an estimate based on the numbers you entered, not an offer of credit or a commitment to fund.
