    Funding for Merchants with personal checking accounts

    Hello,

    Does anyone know of a funding company that works with Sole proprietorship's, using personal checking accounts, and also home based business?

    Best Regards,

    home based business, yes. Personal account, no. That would be a personal loan.

    As long as the business deposits are going into the personal account, a few lenders can fund them. Some sole props don't keep a separate business bank account.

    Funding a personal account would be a "consumer loan". not being licensed in that space and expect a 5AM door kicking ceremony at your home.

    No keep the Feds away! I feel like when you are all three Sole Prop., Home based, personal checking its the perfect storm. Not sure what default is but I assume it would be high, high risk at the very least. Thanks for the responses, this is truly an MCA community.

    See if the merchant is willing to add their DBA to their account. It depends what bank they use, some banks will make them open a new account, but other banks will just add the DBA and convert it to business account. If you can get a letter from the bank confirming that, then most funders will accept and fund
    if not, you have to have them open a business account, wait 3 months and reapply

    I've seen merchants with personal statements with 5-6 positions in their account (celebrities). No DBA's or anything

    DBA the account you should be fine, DBA shows intent on business purpose of the account which separates the consumer loan issue.

    I vaguely remember hearing that LoanMe will flip them to their personal product and fund them if they discover the business is being run on a personal checking. This may be incorrect because I drink a little sometimes.

    Ignoring the regulation issue as a whole, it is risky to fund a personal account because the ability to reverse an ACH collection is significantly longer than for a business checking account. I believe you can try to overturn an ACH on a personal account a few months later whereas a business checking you only have a few weeks.
