Fast purchase order financing for Detroit businesses

For a city of roughly 689,000 people, Detroit has a deep base of B2B companies — and most of them deal with slow-paying customers. Our purchase order financing programs give Detroit owners predictable working capital, typically within 5–10 business days for first deal.

Because approval is driven by your customers' credit, Detroit startups and companies rebuilding credit can qualify just as readily as established firms.

How it works in Detroit

  1. 1.Win the order. You receive a purchase order from a creditworthy commercial or government customer.
  2. 2.We pay your supplier. We issue payment or a letter of credit directly to your supplier for up to 100% of the cost.
  3. 3.Goods are delivered. Your supplier ships to your customer, and you invoice upon delivery.
  4. 4.Settle and keep the margin. Your customer pays, we deduct our fees, and you keep the profit.
