Business funding leads

Business funding leads from owners who need capital this month.

Small business owners request funding on a live ad funnel and reach your desk seconds later. Filter by revenue, time in business and amount, and pay by how fresh each request is.

Built for MCA funders, SBA lenders, business-loan brokers.

Who they are

Who business funding leads are

Business funding leads are owners who asked about working capital, equipment, receivables financing or a loan to start or grow. Most are busy running the business while they shop, so they respond to a funder who is quick, asks the right questions up front and tells them clearly which documents to send. These requests are a common source of MCA leads as well as SBA and term-loan files.

Underwriting fit is decided by a few numbers: monthly revenue, time in business, owner credit and the amount requested. Filter on those so each campaign only receives files your programs can fund. A merchant cash advance desk and an SBA lender want very different profiles, and paying for leads outside your box burns budget and agent time quickly.

Owners deserve a straight explanation of cost and structure. A factor rate is not an interest rate, daily or weekly remittance affects cash flow, and SBA timelines are longer than many expect. Do not promise approval or quote pricing before review, apply the same criteria to every applicant, and follow the commercial financing disclosure rules that apply in your states.

Playbook

How to work business funding leads

What the best-performing teams do from the moment the lead lands.

  1. 01

    Call while the owner is at the desk

    Owners fill in funding forms between customers and jobs. Call within minutes, confirm the amount and purpose they entered, and ask the three questions that decide fit: monthly deposits, time in business and existing advances or loans. A fast, focused first call earns the bank statements before a competing broker gets through.

  2. 02

    Collect documents and qualify fairly

    Send a short, specific document checklist by text and email while you are still on the call, usually recent bank statements and an application. Review every file against the same published criteria. If your product is the wrong fit, say so and suggest what might fit better, which keeps the relationship open for a future renewal.

  3. 03

    Explain the offer in plain terms

    When you have an offer, walk the owner through the total payback, factor rate or APR, payment frequency and any fees, and send the disclosures your states require. Never promise approval before underwriting. Track funded deals and renewals by campaign in your CRM so you can see which revenue and credit bands are worth buying.

FAQ

Business funding leads questions

Are business funding leads exclusive?

For the first 15 minutes, yes. A Hot 1 lead is sold to one buyer only. After that, a lead can be shared with a small, capped number of buyers as it ages, at a lower price at each tier. Every lead record shows how many buyers already have it, which matters on a competitive MCA desk.

Can I filter MCA leads by revenue and time in business?

Yes. Campaigns filter by lead type, state, ZIP code, amount requested, monthly revenue, time in business and owner credit score band. Set up separate campaigns for MCA, SBA and equipment programs, each with its own caps, delivery schedule and webhook into your CRM or dialer.

What consent and source data comes with each lead?

Every lead includes the consent language the owner agreed to, a timestamp, the IP address and a TrustedForm certificate, alongside name, phone, email, location and the funding details they entered. You are responsible for do-not-call, calling-hour and commercial financing disclosure rules, so confirm your process with your compliance team.

Can I buy aged business funding leads?

Yes, if you opt in. Leads older than 24 hours become Aged leads, available for 1 to 30 days in the marketplace and in bulk at the lowest price on the ladder. They suit nurture and re-engagement campaigns, since an owner who was not ready last week may need capital this week.

What counts as a valid return?

Returns open within 48 hours of purchase. Disconnected or wrong numbers, duplicates of leads you already bought, fake business details, leads outside your service area and owners who never requested contact are valid. An owner who does not answer, changes their mind or does not meet your underwriting is not. Approved returns credit your wallet.
