Typically 1.5%–4% flat per load, with up to 97% of the load advanced. Location doesn't change pricing — your rate is set by monthly volume, your customers' credit and how quickly they pay.

Around Carlisle we see the most demand from trucking, construction companies, plus professional services firms and B2B suppliers billing on net-30 to net-90 terms.

Do I need an office in Carlisle to qualify?

No. What matters is that your business is US-registered and invoices creditworthy commercial or government customers. Home-based and mobile operators across the Lexington-Fayette metro qualify on the same basis.

Can I finance invoices to customers outside Kentucky?

Yes. Your customers can be anywhere in the United States — several of our Kentucky clients invoice nationally. We assess each customer's credit, not their location.
