Sound familiar?
Crews get paid weekly. The contract pays net-60.
Win a big commercial account and the work starts immediately — but the payment terms mean you carry the crew and supplies in the meantime.
Crews and supplies get paid weekly, but your commercial contracts pay net-30 or net-60 — and you just won two more accounts.
With capital in place, you cover payroll and supplies now and let the receivables clear on their own terms instead of yours.
Onboarding a new account means equipment and supplies up front, long before that contract's first check arrives.
With working capital ready, you take on the account and gear up immediately instead of slow-walking the start.
A new route would grow the business, but a vehicle and crew cost cash the current contracts are already spoken for.
With funding behind you, you expand the service area without straining the accounts already on the books.
You may qualify on your recurring-contract deposits and bank activity, net-term gaps included. No obligation, and any payments are built to fit your cash flow.

Funding options
One conversation. The funding option that actually fits.
There's no single right way to fund a business — it depends on what the money is for and how you get paid. A funding specialist reviews your file and matches you to the option that fits your cash flow, starting with the one most small businesses reach for first.
Working Capital Advance
Most popularBest when you need to cover a gap or move on an opportunity fast.
Funding based on your revenue and bank activity rather than credit alone, repaid as a small, automatic share of your deposits — so it flexes with a slow week instead of fighting it. A factor rate (not an APR) sets the cost up front; you may qualify, and approval depends on underwriting.
Business Line of Credit
Best when the need is recurring and you want to draw and repay as cash flow moves.
A revolving limit you draw from when you need it and pay down when you don't, so capital is there for the next gap without reapplying. You only carry what you actually use; access and terms depend on underwriting.
Term Loan
Best when you have a defined, one-time use and want a predictable monthly payment.
A fixed amount repaid over a set term in predictable payments — straightforward to plan around for a specific project or purchase. Amount and term depend on underwriting and the strength of the file.
Equipment Financing
Best when you're buying equipment — new or used — and want to preserve cash.
Finance the truck, oven, chair, or machine so you can put it to work now while keeping cash free for payroll and the day-to-day. The equipment itself typically anchors the deal; new and used both qualify, subject to underwriting.
Invoice Factoring
Best when capital is tied up in unpaid invoices and you can't wait on net-30/60.
Turn outstanding invoices into cash now instead of waiting weeks for customers to pay, so a slow-paying client doesn't stall payroll or your next job. Availability is based on your receivables and your customers' credit, subject to review.
FundVella is not a lender. We connect business owners with funding specialists who review your file and match you to available options. A factor rate is not an APR. You may qualify; approval depends on underwriting, payments must fit your cash flow, and there's no obligation to accept an offer.
What we look at
How files are reviewed
Reviews are based on business revenue and bank activity — not a single number. Here's what tends to matter most.
Recurring contracts
Consistency of recurring-contract deposits month to month.
Receivable terms
Net-30/60 timing on commercial accounts is expected.
Crew & supply costs
How weekly payroll and supply costs line up against deposits.

Questions
Frequently asked
My commercial accounts pay net-30/60 — does that matter?
It's expected. Underwriting understands net-term receivables in commercial cleaning and reviews your deposit pattern over time, so the gap doesn't automatically hurt the file.
Can I fund payroll while waiting on invoices?
Yes — bridging crew payroll and supplies while receivables clear is a common use. Amounts depend on underwriting and your deposit history.
How much funding could my business qualify for?
It depends on underwriting — amounts are based on your revenue, bank activity, time in business, and existing obligations. A specialist reviews your file to find a range.
- Business revenue & deposits
- Time in business
- Bank activity & existing obligations
What do I need to get started?
Just a quick prequalification. If the file looks viable, recent business bank statements (usually 3–4 months) help move it forward.
Will checking my readiness affect my credit?
Starting a prequalification doesn't trigger a hard credit check. Options are reviewed mainly on business revenue and bank activity; credit is considered, but it isn't the only factor.
Is there any obligation?
None. Submitting your information doesn't obligate you to accept an offer, and any payments must fit your cash flow. A specialist may contact you to review your inquiry.
