UCC-1 Filing & Funding
Upon agreement execution, UCC-1 lien filed and funds disbursed to your supplier within 3-5 business days.
What is the minimum PO size you finance?
We typically work with purchase orders of $100,000 or greater from creditworthy national retailers. Smaller facilities may be considered on a case-by-case basis depending on buyer quality and importer history.
Do I need strong personal credit to qualify?
No. PO financing is underwritten primarily against the creditworthiness of your end-buyer (the retailer), not your personal credit score. The key qualification factor is whether your buyer is an approved national or regional retailer.
What does the UCC-1 lien mean for my business?
A UCC-1 financing statement is a standard commercial lien filed with the NJ Secretary of State that secures the capital partner interest in the funded receivables. It is released upon repayment of the facility.
How quickly can funds reach my supplier?
Following term sheet execution and UCC-1 filing, funds are typically disbursed to your overseas supplier within 3-5 business days via wire transfer. Rush disbursements may be available for existing facility holders.
