Ascend Merchant Capital’s role

Ascend Merchant Capital markets and facilitates access to business financing solutions. Depending on the product and transaction, financing may be offered, underwritten, approved and funded by unaffiliated third-party lenders or financing providers. Ascend Merchant Capital does not represent that it is the lender, creditor, servicer or SBA-approved lender for such products. The identity and role of the actual provider should be confirmed in the applicable offer and definitive documents.

No commitment or guarantee

Submitting an inquiry does not constitute an application to any specific lender, an approval, a binding offer or a guarantee of funding. Eligibility, amounts, rates, factor rates, costs, collateral, guarantees, processing times and repayment requirements depend on the specific provider, program and underwriting.

Broker and referral compensation

Ascend Merchant Capital may receive referral, brokerage or other compensation from financing providers in connection with arranged transactions. Any compensation and fee disclosures required by applicable law will be provided as required for a particular transaction. This page is not a substitute for transaction-specific disclosures.

Provider decisions and comparisons

Not all products or providers are available in every state or to every applicant. Ascend Merchant Capital does not represent every lender or every available financing product. You should compare total cost, payment frequency, prepayment terms, liens, guarantees and other terms before accepting financing.

Advertising and examples

Illustrative program descriptions and payment calculators are educational, not quotations or commitments. Fixed-rate amortization estimates may not reflect fees, variable rates, factor-based products or other financing structures.

SBA and real-estate-secured programs

Any SBA financing is subject to SBA rules and the participating lender’s eligibility and underwriting requirements; Ascend Merchant Capital is not represented as an SBA lender. Home equity borrowing can put your property at risk, including foreclosure. Home-secured programs may be governed by different licensing, disclosure and consumer protection requirements.
