Contractor Capital Advance finances equipment, machinery, and fleet for licensed contractors and specialty trades from $25,000 to $5,000,000, with approvals that lean on your business bank deposits and revenue rather than a credit score alone. You apply, we read the last few months of deposits, and a decision typically comes back in 4 to 24 hours. Approved files are often funded the same or next business day, so you can put a skid steer, service truck, or CNC machine to work while the job is still on the calendar instead of waiting on a bank underwriting queue.

What deposit-based equipment financing actually is

Most banks approve equipment purchases on credit tiers, tax returns, and the collateral value of the asset. That process is slow and it punishes contractors who run a real, seasonal, deposit-heavy business. We work the other direction. Our underwriting starts with your business bank statements: the size and consistency of your deposits, how revenue moves through the account, and whether the cash flow supports the payment.

Because approval is anchored to deposits and revenue, all credit is considered. A tax lien, a past bankruptcy, or a sub-600 score does not automatically end the conversation the way it would at a traditional lender. If the deposits are there, we can usually structure the funding. This is a business cash advance used to acquire equipment, not a lien-based equipment lease, so there is no lengthy appraisal on the machine itself holding things up.

How it works, start to funded

The path from application to working capital is short and deposit-driven:

  1. Apply online. Basic business details plus your last three to six months of business bank statements. No package of tax returns to assemble first.
  2. We read the deposits. Underwriting looks at deposit volume, consistency, and existing obligations to size an amount your revenue can carry.
  3. Decision in 4 to 24 hours. You get real numbers: amount, term, and cost, in plain language.
  4. Funds released. Approved files are commonly funded same or next business day, sent to your business account so you can buy the equipment directly from your dealer or seller.

You purchase the asset yourself, which means you own it outright from day one and keep the leverage of a cash buyer at the dealership.

What you can finance

This is built for the equipment that actually earns for a contractor:

  • Heavy machinery — excavators, skid steers, backhoes, loaders, mini-diggers, compaction and paving equipment.
  • Fleet and service vehicles — work trucks, box trucks, dump trucks, trailers, and van build-outs.
  • Trade-specific equipment — HVAC recovery and install rigs, plumbing jetters and cameras, electrical bucket trucks, welding and fabrication setups, CNC and shop machinery.
  • Support assets — generators, compressors, lifts, scaffolding, and attachments that keep a crew billable.

New or used, dealer or private-party, single unit or a multi-truck fleet expansion — because the funding lands in your account as capital, you decide where and how to buy.

Amounts, terms, and cost

Funding runs from $25,000 to $5,000,000. The amount you qualify for is driven primarily by monthly deposit volume, so a shop clearing steady six-figure months has room for a larger fleet purchase than one just crossing the minimum. Terms are structured to match how equipment revenue comes in, with fixed, predictable payments on a daily, weekly, or set schedule rather than a variable rate that moves on you.

Cost is quoted as a clear total up front before you accept anything. There is no guarantee of approval and no fixed rate we can promise sight-unseen — the number depends on your deposits, time in business, and existing obligations. What we do commit to is a straight answer, fast, with the full cost stated plainly so you can weigh it against what the equipment will earn.

Realistic example scenarios

The figures below are illustrative of how deposit-based files tend to size up. They are examples, not quotes or offers.

Notice the pattern: approval size tracks deposits, and decisions land inside a single business day.

Who qualifies

This financing is for licensed contractors and specialty trades running an active business with real revenue moving through a business bank account. The core requirements are straightforward: a licensed operating business, several months of bank statements showing consistent deposits, and cash flow that supports the payment. Time in business and deposit consistency matter more than a perfect credit profile.

All credit is considered. If your score kept you out at the bank but your deposits are steady, this is exactly the situation deposit-based underwriting is built for. Newer shops with strong revenue and established contractors carrying prior credit damage both fit here — the deposits do the talking.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need good credit to finance equipment here?

No. Approval leans on your business bank deposits and revenue, and all credit is considered. A low score, past bankruptcy, or a lien does not automatically disqualify you if your deposits show the cash flow to support the payment.

How fast can I get funded?

Decisions typically come back in 4 to 24 hours after we have your bank statements. Approved files are commonly funded the same or next business day, with funds sent to your business account so you can buy the equipment directly.

How much can I qualify for?

Funding runs from $25,000 to $5,000,000. The amount is driven mainly by your monthly deposit volume, so stronger and steadier deposits support a larger equipment or fleet purchase.

Do I own the equipment or is it leased?

You own it. This is business capital funded to your account, and you purchase the asset yourself from any dealer or private seller. You own it outright from day one and buy as a cash buyer.

Can I finance used equipment or a private-party purchase?

Yes. Because the funding lands in your account as capital rather than a lien on a specific machine, you can buy new or used, from a dealer or a private party, and structure the purchase however works best for you.

What do I need to apply?

Basic business details plus your last three to six months of business bank statements. You do not need to assemble tax returns or a full financial package first — the deposits are the starting point for underwriting.
