Understanding your payment

An amortizing loan spreads principal and interest into equal monthly payments. Early payments are mostly interest; later payments are mostly principal. Lowering your rate or extending your term reduces the monthly payment — but a longer term means more total interest. Use the fields above to find the balance that fits your cash flow, and explore working capital, equipment financing, and lines of credit.

Loan vs. merchant cash advance

A term loan is almost always cheaper in APR terms than an MCA. If you have an advance, run it through our factor-rate-to-APR calculator and compare — the gap is often eye-opening.

Frequently asked questions

How is a business loan payment calculated?

An amortizing loan uses your principal, annual interest rate and term to produce a fixed monthly payment. Each payment covers interest on the remaining balance plus a bit of principal. This calculator shows the monthly payment, total interest, and total repayment.

What rate will I qualify for?

It depends on your revenue, credit, time in business and the product. Stronger files get lower rates. Merchant Fund Express works with businesses doing $15,000+/month with a 500+ FICO and offers working capital, lines of credit, equipment financing and more.

Is a term loan cheaper than an MCA?

Almost always, in APR terms. If you have been quoted a merchant cash advance, compare its effective APR (use our MCA calculator) against an amortizing loan here — the difference is often dramatic.
