Kalamata offers MCA with a soft pull, max $500k. An acceptable credit score is 600+, so this could be a long shot depending on context.
Funding matches shown through DirectLend AI are estimates or potential options based on the information provided. A match does not mean you are approved, pre-approved, or guaranteed funding. Final approval, funding amount, rates, fees, repayment terms, and timing are determined by the independent lender or funding partner after review.

Business Financing Guide
Time in business
Your business will be in a stronger position to borrow if you can prove you have a track record of solid revenue over the past one to two years.
Cash flow
A business cash-flow projection shows when money is collected, when cash goes out and what’s left. Lenders typically like to see that you understand where your business’s money is going each month.
Credit Score
Lenders use your credit score to determine your riskiness as a borrower. In most cases, you’ll need a good to excellent credit score in the mid-600s or higher to get a business loan, although certain lenders allow scores as low as 500.
Collateral
Some of lenders may offer more favorable rates and terms when collateral is available. Typical forms of collateral include real estate, equipment, money owed to your company (accounts receivable), and even cash. (Collateral is not required)
