Funding Products

Funding solutions for businesses that want to grow

Seven financing products. One conversation to figure out which one fits.

Accounts Receivable Finance

Convert unpaid invoices into immediate cash. Instead of waiting 30, 60, or 90 days for customers to pay, receive most of the invoice value upfront. Strong receivables become predictable cash flow.

Equipment Financing

Acquire essential equipment without paying upfront. Spread the cost over the asset’s useful life through structured payments. Available for machinery, vehicles, technology, and specialty equipment across most industries.

Business Term Loans

A fixed amount, repaid over a set period with predictable monthly payments. Ideal for established businesses funding expansion, property, equipment, or large projects. We arrange term loans from $50K to $10M+.

Business Line of Credit

Draw funds as you need them, pay interest only on what you use. A revolving facility for managing seasonal cash flow, covering short-term gaps, or seizing time-sensitive opportunities. Borrow, repay, borrow again.

Start-Up Finance

Capital to launch and scale a new business. Start-up finance covers equipment, inventory, marketing, and operating costs so founders can build without being held back by cash flow. Designed for businesses in their first three years.

Asset-Based Lending

Your business may be asset-rich and cash-constrained. Inventory on the shelves, invoices waiting to be paid, plant and equipment on the floor — all of it has value, even when a bank will only lend against profits or property. Asset-based lending turns those business assets into working capital, so you can fund growth, bridge a gap, or take on a larger order without waiting for customers to pay.

Specialty Finance

Some funding needs simply don't fit a standard product. The asset is unusual. The situation is urgent, distressed, or just plain complicated. Specialty finance is funding carved out around the specific deal — structured to fit the borrower, the asset, and the timeline.

How we work

Three steps from enquiry to funded

01

Tell us what you need

Five-minute phone call or online enquiry. We listen first, ask the right questions, and figure out what type of capital actually fits your situation.

02

We match you to the right lender

From our curated network of specialist lenders across five countries, we identify who's most likely to fund your specific business, and structure the deal to maximize approval odds.

03

Get funded, fast

Most facilities close within 2–4 weeks. We handle the paperwork, lender communication, and negotiation. You focus on running your business.

Our edge

We don't do vanilla.

Most brokers route every deal through the same three banks and walk away when the answer is no. We work differently. Over 35 years and three continents, we've built relationships with niche lenders who specialize in the deals others can't structure: supply chain finance, asset-based lending, complex M&A capital, restructuring, and cross-border facilities. If your business is profitable, growing, or solving a real problem, we'll find a way.

Specialist lender network

Curated relationships across USA, Canada, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.

We speak both languages

We translate borrower complexity into lender-ready proposals.

Built a factoring company

Founder Neil McMillan built one from the ground up.

Real cashflow expertise

Decades structuring deals that actually close.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Still curious? Reach out; the first conversation costs nothing.

Make an enquiry

We work with established Canadian businesses across most industries (manufacturing, transportation, wholesale, professional services, construction, and technology being the most common). We also finance start-ups in their first 1–3 years where the founder has relevant experience or a clear path to revenue.

We're not a bank; we're a commercial finance broker. That means we have access to dozens of specialist lenders across five countries, not just the one set of products a single bank offers. When a deal is complex, time-sensitive, or doesn't fit a bank's standard credit box, we have options.

Most facilities close within 2–4 weeks from enquiry to funded. Factoring facilities can sometimes close faster. The exact timeline depends on the financing type, deal size, and how quickly we receive your documentation.

Lender pricing varies by product, risk profile, and structure, and we always show you the full cost before you commit.

For a first conversation, just your business name, what you're trying to fund, and roughly how much capital you need. To progress to a formal application, lenders will typically ask for two years of financials, recent bank statements, and details about the asset or use of funds.

Our primary market is Canada, but our lender network extends to the USA, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. We can sometimes structure cross-border facilities or refer Canadian businesses to international lenders for specialist deals.

This is exactly the kind of deal we specialize in. Past credit issues, recent declines, or non-standard situations don't disqualify a business; we work with lenders whose credit boxes specifically accommodate complexity. The first conversation costs nothing; let's see what's possible.
