FAQ

SharpShooter Funding is a leading provider of Canadian working capital and business funding to Canadian small businesses in all 10 Provinces & 3 Territories. Since the Summer of 2015, more than 4,160 Canadian small businesses have trusted us to provide them with fast, flexible, and reliable Canadian funding to fuel their success.

SharpShooter Funding works with businesses in over 300 industries ranging from physicians and restaurants to repair shops and retailers. We specialize in making capital accessible to small businesses that are underserved by traditional financial institutions, such as banks and credit unions. Because we look at your real-time business cash flow — not just your historical financials and personal credit score — we’re able to deliver financing solutions to more small businesses than most other funding sources.

Small Business Funding is a financing arrangement that will provide you upfront capital in exchange for a fixed amount of your future revenue. For more details on merchant cash advance, check out our About SharpShooter Funding page.

SharpShooter Funding has one of the most efficient and simplistic application processes in the industry because we only ask for what we absolutely need: Owner’s name and Social Insurance Number (SIN #), Legal Business Name and Business Identification Number or BID #, and Six (6) months of your most recent business bank statements.

SharpShooter Funding offers solutions for business owners with strong, well-established credit as well as business owners with imperfect credit. In fact, while we do evaluate your credit history, we don’t have a minimum credit score requirement, which means that even without great credit you can qualify for financing.
