Frequently asked questions

How is invoice factoring different from accounts receivable financing?

Invoice factoring means selling your unpaid invoices to a factor at a small discount — the factor pays you up to 95% upfront and then collects from your customers directly, so no debt is added to your balance sheet. Accounts receivable financing means borrowing against those same invoices while keeping ownership: you continue collecting from customers yourself and the financing shows up on your books as debt. Factoring usually costs more but gets you out of collections; A/R financing is typically cheaper and keeps customer relationships private.

What business loans are available to Brewpub owners in New York?

New York brewpub owners can qualify through Manu for small business loans ($10K–$10M), SBA 7(a) and 504 loans ($50K–$5M), business lines of credit, equipment financing, merchant cash advances, accounts receivable financing, and inventory lines. We work with lenders licensed to fund in New York.

How fast can a Brewpub business in New York get funded?

Lines of credit and merchant cash advances can fund the same day for qualifying New York brewpub businesses. Small business loans and equipment financing typically wire in 1–3 business days. SBA loans take 4–10 weeks because of government underwriting.

Are there New York-specific SBA programs brewpub owners should know about?

Yes. The New York District Office in Manhattan, Buffalo District Office, and Syracuse District Office oversees SBA 7(a), 504, and microloan programs for New York small businesses, with home-grown lender partners that often add their own New York-focused incentives. Manu's network includes SBA-preferred lenders that fund in New York.

What credit score does a New York brewpub business need?

Minimum FICO depends on the product, not the state: equipment financing starts at 550, small business loans at 580, lines of credit at 600, and SBA loans at 660. Merchant cash advances and A/R financing have no minimum FICO when revenue is strong.

Will applying for a New York brewpub loan hurt my credit?

No. Pre-qualification uses a soft credit pull that does not affect your score. A hard pull only happens if you accept a final offer from a lender.
