WHAT LAWS GOVERN A MERCHANT CASH ADVANCE IN CALIFORNIA?

• The State of California enacted a new law known as SB 1235 which like New York requires that certain commercial financiers and Merchant Cash Advance Funders provide certain disclosures to the Merchant and MCA recipient.
• In fact, California was the first state in the country to enact laws governing commercial loans and Merchant Cash Advances too.
• The California law is unique for it requires the disclosure of an Annual Percentage Rate (APR). This is in opposition to the use previously of an Annualized Cost of Capital (ACC).
• California’s law even holds the disclosure requirement is triggered whenever a “rate, cost of financing or price of financing is quoted based on information provided by a potential merchant recipient. As a result some California based Merchant Cash Advance providers have applied for CA lender licenses.

Why are the majority of Merchant Cash Advance Brokers, Merchant Cash Advance ISO’s and Merchant Cash Advance Funders based out of New York City?

New York City remains the hub of finance and financial transactions throughout the world. Like most alternative forms of finance, the world of Merchant Cash Advance found a stronghold in New York City and being an alternative form of financing was attractive to alternative investors, whom are predominantly located in New York City and close to Wall Street. The coming together of investors and operators of Merchant Cash Advance funders was able to be facilitated in New York City, with both parties being located in or around Wall Street and New York City.

Also, with Manhattan at the epicenter of economic and world finance, coupled with the fact that the largest lenders, banks, private equity and law firms are generally located there, it is no wonder that Merchant Cash Advance loans are dominated by New York based lenders.

Another major reason that Merchant Cash Advance funders set up shop in New York State, is because, prior to the law being repealed, New York Law permitted Merchant Cash Advance funders to issue a borrowing Merchant, the infamous “Confession of Judgment.” As stated, last year (Aug 31^st, 2019), this law was updated to prohibit New York MCA funders from issuing a COJ to a CALIFORNIA resident.

Did you know?

Twenty Three (23) year ago information about Merchant Cash Advance loans became available and publicly accessible. Specifically, an individual by the name of Barbara S. Johnson is listed as the official inventor of split-funding, a system that allows for automatic loan repayment to the funders from a single credit card processor shared with the Merchant. Ms. Johnson obtained a Patent for this system in 1997. Her story is fascinating. Johnson was running four Gymboree Playgroup & Music franchises. Unable to get working capital to fund a summer marketing campaign, she wondered whether she could borrow against future credit card sales derived from parents bringing their kids back for fall classes. About a year later, Johnson and her husband founded Advance Me, a MCA Funder. Her Patented technology allowing for the splitting of credit card sales was a major step in the birth and growth of the MCA world. Later her company would become CAN Capital.
