Direct funder — no middleman

Working capital,
when opportunity knocks.

Clover Advance funds small businesses with its own capital. No broker in the middle, and decisions that look at how your business actually runs — not just a credit score.

We're a direct funder, so you deal with us start to finish.

Funded in three simple steps

Straightforward from first hello to funding — because you're working with the funder, not a middleman.

1

One quick form

Tell us a little about your business and how we can help. No long application to start the conversation.

2

We review your business

We look at real revenue and cash-flow patterns to understand what would genuinely help — not just a score.

3

Get funded

Because we fund directly, there's no file passed down a chain. You talk to us, and we make the decision.

Funding that's actually on your side

What it means to work with a direct funder instead of a broker.

$

Our own capital

We fund deals ourselves. No broker markup layered on top, and no handing your file off to someone else.

Terms explained up front

We walk you through how it works in plain language before anything is decided — no fine-print surprises.

Judged on your real business

We weigh how your business actually runs — cash flow and revenue — not a credit score alone.

Good to know before you apply

Honest answers to the questions owners ask us most.

What is a merchant cash advance?

It's working capital advanced to your business, repaid over time from your revenue. It's not a traditional loan, and we'll explain exactly how it works for your situation.

What does "direct funder" mean?

It means Clover Advance funds with its own capital and makes its own decisions. You're not talking to a broker who shops your file around and adds a markup.

Why don't you list rates or amounts online?

Every business is different, so rates, amounts, and terms are set only after we review a real application — never promised up front.

Will applying hurt my credit?

Reach out and we'll explain what a review involves before anything happens, so there are no surprises.
