FAQ
Ohio Restaurant Funding — FAQ
Can an Ohio restaurant get MCA after a bank decline?
Yes. Ohio restaurants qualify based on monthly bank deposit volume — not credit history or bank relationships. A bank decline does not affect MCA eligibility. Minimum: 4+ months operating, $4,000–$6,000/month deposits, 500 FICO.
How much can an Ohio restaurant get with MCA?
Ohio restaurant MCA amounts range from $10,000 to $150,000. A Columbus restaurant averaging $50,000/month may qualify for $37,500–$75,000. A Cleveland restaurant averaging $35,000/month may qualify for $26,250–$52,500. A Cincinnati restaurant averaging $40,000/month may qualify for $30,000–$60,000.
Can an Ohio restaurant use MCA for winter slow season?
Yes. Ohio restaurants face significant winter dips — January and February are typically the slowest months statewide. An MCA taken in fall based on strong summer and festival season deposits can bridge the winter slow period without requiring a bank loan.
Can an Ohio restaurant use MCA for equipment repair or kitchen upgrade?
Yes. MCA proceeds can be used for any business purpose including equipment repair, kitchen upgrades, refrigeration, POS systems, and working capital. MCA provides capital in 24–48 hours — faster than any equipment financing program.
How fast can an Ohio restaurant get funded?
Most Ohio restaurant applications receive a decision within 2–4 hours. Ohio restaurants submitting complete files before noon Eastern time are eligible for same-day wire funding.
