Is Advantage Capital Funding a Legal MCA or an Illegal Disguised Loan?

Is Advantage Capital Funding's Agreement Legal?
Advantage Capital Funding (operating through related entities including Advantage Platform Services, Inc. and Advantage Merchant Funding) is a New York City-based merchant cash advance provider. Court records show the company has both pursued and been the subject of litigation directly tied to how its MCA agreements are enforced.
In a 2023 New York Supreme Court case, a merchant sued Advantage Platform Services, Inc. (d/b/a Advantage Capital Funding), alleging abuse of process, violations of UCC provisions governing secured transactions, and tortious interference and sought a declaratory judgment that the MCA agreement was actually a disguised, usurious loan rather than a legitimate purchase of future receivables.
Separately, an SEC-filed settlement agreement documents that Advantage obtained multiple default judgments by confession totaling over $1.24 million against small business owners in Ontario County, New York after they defaulted on MCA agreements.
If Advantage Capital Funding has filed a Confession of Judgment against you, frozen your bank accounts, or is pursuing your personal guarantee, you need legal defense immediately. Grant Phillips Law has successfully litigated over 600 MCA and fintech lending cases and provides nationwide representation to businesses just like yours.
