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.
How fast can I get invoice factoring for pharmacy businesses in Seattle, Washington?
Funding speed for invoice factoring for pharmacy businesses depends on the product and lender. Lines of credit and merchant cash advances can often disburse within one business day, term loans and equipment financing typically fund in one to three business days, and SBA loans usually take several weeks due to federal underwriting. Pre-qualifying through Manu's partner application takes about three minutes.
What credit score do I need to qualify?
Minimum FICO depends on the product: equipment financing starts at 550, small business loans at 580, lines of credit at 600, and SBA loans at 660. Merchant cash advances and accounts receivable financing have no minimum FICO — they're underwritten on revenue and receivables instead.
How much can I borrow?
Funding amounts range from $10,000 to $10 million depending on your revenue, time in business, and the loan product. Pre-qualifying takes about 3 minutes and shows you exactly what you're approved for for pharmacy businesses.
Will applying hurt my credit score?
No. Pre-qualification uses a soft credit check that does not affect your credit score. A hard pull only happens if you accept a final offer from a lender.
What documents do I need to apply?
To pre-qualify, you'll share basic business info plus your most recent 3 months of business bank statements. To finalize an offer, most lenders ask for 3–6 months of bank statements in total. Larger loans may also require tax returns or financial statements.
