Automation Requires Investment
Scale Your Process

Programs
Equipment Financing & Leasing
Finance all types of new and used assets including Tier 1 software (licensing and services). (Terms and pricing are dependent on the credit profile.) Alliance offers all types of lease options including processing equipment, operating, and fixed purchase options. We can also structure the monthly payments to meet your business cash flow needs (i.e. Seasonal, Step-Up /Step-Down, Deferred payments and more).
Working Capital
Up to $5,0000,000 in unsecured working capital to small and medium businesses. Lending volumes are typically between 7-12% of GROSS SALES. The process requires a single-page application, 6 months of bank statements, and the 1st page of your business’ tax returns. The loan is unsecured and preserves your ability to secure additional funding with banks or other lenders.
Structured Financing
Alternative credit options are available for companies that may or may not qualify for traditional financing due to certain credit issues. Alliance maintains portfolios with Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s rated investment companies that offer asset-based lending (including mezzanine, AR Factoring, secured lines of credit, inventory, and contract monetization.)
New Business & Expansion
Funding for new business & businesses with expansion plans is also available. Our financing and leasing programs incorporate 100% cost of the equipment including taxes, delivery, & installation to preserve business cash flow.
Types Of Leases
The Fair Market Value Lease (OPEX)
Fair Market Value leases offer the lowest monthly payments and may qualify as an operating expense for tax purposes. Fair Market Value payments are true rental payments. When the lease ends, you can return the equipment, continue to lease it month-to-month, or purchase it at it fair market value.
The 10% or 20% Purchase Option Lease (capital lease with fixed purchase option)
This lease has a slightly higher monthly payment but offers the security of a fixed purchase price at the end of the lease, 10% or 20% of the original purchase price. Any time the purchase option is fixed, it increases the likelihood that the lease will be treated as an installment loan for tax purposes. The major test is whether 10% or 20% of the original purchase price represents a “bargain purchase price.” You should consult with your accountant for a final recommendation.
The Dollar Buy-Out Lease (CAPEX)
This lease is similar to a loan. The processor owns the equipment, makes monthly payments to the leasing company, and can usually take advantage of tax benefits such as interest deductions and depreciation. At the end of the lease term, the customer simply pays a $1 buyout and the equipment is theirs with no further obligation.

Faq
What's the turnaround time?
One-page applications, (up to $500,000) can be approved within a few minutes, typically no longer than four hours, and seldom more than 24. The most common turn-around time is about two hours.
What do I need to get credit approved?
For a one-page application, just a completed credit application & vendor quote is required. For a full-sized loan you’ll need your last 3 year-end financial statements, 3 tax returns, and current P/L balance sheet.
Can the loan cover equipment not provided by ABM?
Yes, you can buy new or used equipment, processing or otherwise, from any supplier and negotiate the final pricing.
What's the buy out?
There are numerous options available for a buy out. These include Fair Market Value (FMV), $1 Buy-Out, and Fixed Percentage Purchase options.
What kinds of equipment can be leased?
Whatever you can justifiably use for your business, we can finance. We have a variety of programs for new and used processing equipment. We can even finance software, fixtures, and installation costs.
What are your rates?
Rates depend on the size of the credit request, lease/loan structure, and the underlying credit of your customer. There is a risk-based pricing within the underwriting process. The lower the risk, the lower the lease rate can be. That being said, AFG is the largest privately held direct lender in the States and can offer the best rates for many industries, but especially processing.
Do you offer line-of-credit for future purchases?
Yes; AFG provides lease lines of credit (also known as master leases) where a predetermined amount is preapproved. That way you can purchase equipment in the future without paying interest on unused portions of the loan.
Do you do cash loans/working capital?
Yes; Alliance has a range of different working capital options. The working capital loans range from $5k to $5,000,000.00.
What info do I need to get working capital?
You need 6 months of complete bank statements and to fill out the single page credit application.
