A merchant cash advance isn’t technically a loan — it’s a purchase of your future receivables. That distinction matters because MCAs aren’t subject to the same lending regulations, which is why interest rates (often called factor rates) can be significantly higher and repayment terms more aggressive. 

While a traditional loan typically has fixed monthly payments, MCAs pull daily or weekly withdrawals directly from your account. This is why MCA debt can spiral so quickly — and why settling it requires a different strategy than negotiating a conventional business loan.

Yes, and this is something we handle carefully. Your vendor relationships are critical to your operations, so we approach these negotiations with the goal of reaching a settlement that works for both sides.

In many cases, vendors prefer to recover a negotiated amount rather than risk getting nothing or going through lengthy collections. We work to preserve the relationship wherever possible so you can continue doing business with the suppliers you depend on. 

Absolutely. Stacked MCAs — where you’ve taken additional advances to cover earlier ones — are one of the most common situations we see. We assess every MCA contract individually, identify the total exposure, and build a strategy to negotiate each one. 

In many cases, settling stacked MCAs simultaneously gives us additional leverage because creditors know they’re competing with other lenders for a limited pool of funds. We’ve resolved cases with five, six, or more stacked advances.

The negotiation principles are similar, but the approach differs. Business credit card issuers have different settlement patterns, timelines, and thresholds than MCA lenders. They’re also subject to different regulations.

We know how the major card issuers operate and what they’re likely to accept at various stages of delinquency. Whether it’s one card or several, we negotiate to reduce the balance and create repayment terms that fit your actual cash flow. 

Each case is different, and clear expectations will be established before enrolling in our program. Some cases are completed on day one with a simple call to the creditor. This is another advantage of the relationships we’ve built over the years.

More complex cases with multiple creditors typically take 12-18 months from start to finish. Throughout the process, we handle all creditor communication and negotiations. You’ll get regular updates on progress, settlement offers, and next steps. You focus on your business while we resolve the debt.

Personal guarantees add complexity, but they don’t eliminate your options. A personal guarantee means the lender can pursue your personal assets if the business can’t pay — which is why acting early is critical.

We work to negotiate settlements before lenders escalate to personal collection. In many cases, creditors will still accept a reduced settlement even when a personal guarantee exists, because pursuing personal assets is expensive and time-consuming for them.

We’ll assess your specific guarantee terms and build a strategy that protects both your business and your personal exposure as much as possible. 

Yes. Once a line of credit goes to collections, the original creditor has typically sold or assigned the debt to a third-party collector. The good news is that collectors often purchase debt at a deep discount, which means there’s more room to negotiate a favorable settlement.

We deal with collection agencies regularly and know how to navigate their tactics. Whether the debt is still with the original creditor or has been sent to collections, we can negotiate on your behalf to reduce what you owe and stop the collection pressure.

Some of our clients have in-house attorneys for specific reasons. Our attorneys specialize in MCA contracts.

Our specialized legal program provides legal representation in every US state and exclusively focuses on MCA contract disputes.

As an SOS client, there is a distinct financial benefit to our legal plan — saving thousands of dollars on retainer fees and hourly charges.

Unlike independent attorneys who charge $5K-$15K upfront and may not specialize in MCA debt, you get specialized legal representation included in our service with a one-time enrollment.

Over 15 years in this business, SOS has worked with all MCA lenders.

We’ve negotiated with Cash Capital, Samson, Kalamata, National Funding, Byzfunder, QFS Capital, Everest Business Funding, OnDeck, Vox Funding, and dozens of others.

SOS will settle any unsecured business debt, including vendor debt and business credit card debt.

If you have debt with smaller or newer lenders we haven’t worked with, we’ll still negotiate — our relationships and expertise apply across all MCA companies.

This is a smart question — there are a lot of scams in the debt relief industry.
