Good afternoon,

We are considering joining the SBFA. Mostly to have access to view "tagged" fundings and defaults. I know there are membership fees involved. Anyone familiar with the costs to be part of SBFA?

Thanks in advance.

what do you mean to view "tagged" fundings and defaults? what does the SBFA offer?

and what is the point of CFC? do they broker deals or something?

If you are looking for a database of default merchants, use datamerch. reach out to Scott swilliams@datamerch.com

The point of CFC is for funders and lenders to work together to help small businesses and the MCA industry as a whole. CFC is very active politically to support legislation that is positive for the industry and helping small business's have access to capital, and active in working against legislation that would be detrimental to the industry and to small businesses. If you think that is something you would like to be a part of, shoot me a PM and I will put you in touch with them.

My former company was a part of SBFA and regularly used the website https://sbfamembers.org. This site helped us not only identify a few defaults, but also recent fundings (a good tool to help avoid double fundings as well). Unfortunately I was not involved in the membership aspect so I am not familiar with the costs. Does anyone know?

Hey Andy,

Thanks! We are actually already a part of DataMerch and use it everyday! It is awesome! Just looking for an additional tool to fight fraud.
