What if I obtain financing and the product that arrived is not the one that I ordered?This is unlikely to happen, but it could happen. It is unlikely to happen because if it’s a traditional equipment financing loan, the lender needs to verify the equipment and assure that it is the equipment that you are buying. If you obtain traditional equipment financing and you place an order and the product is not the same, we will accommodate your needs. 1. Send us a receipt of delivery from the carrier 2. Send us a picture of the product you received 3. Send us the order number and order from your Account on our website 4. We will conduct an order review 5. If the product is not the same, you will need to ship back the product to the manufacturer 6. We will not apply the restocking fee of 20% or 30%, we will waive this fee. 7. If the product is not damaged and accepted by the manufacturer, we will refund 100% of the cost. 8. Since you obtained financing it is important you select the product that you want. If we do not have the product we will work with another vendor or manufacturer to locate the product at a similar price. The only cost you will be responsible for is the shipping cost to ship back the product. We recommend that if the product is similar but not the same you keep the product. For instance, if you wanted a red oven but obtained a black oven, we may not refund the money back. For instance, if a commercial oven has 3 racks as opposed to 4 racks, we may not refund the money back. The only time we will process these claims is if the product is completely different. For instance, if you ordered an oven and received a refrigerator, that is not the same product. In this case, we would entertain the claim. Also, we would inform the equipment finance company that you have filed a claim and the product you received is not the one that you ordered to determine if they can stop or defer payments during this process. We cannot guarantee that the equipment finance company will stop payments or defer payments, but we will make our best efforts. If you did not obtain traditional equipment financing but obtained an alternative business funding solution to include a merchant cash advance, a business line of credit, or a term loan that is not an equipment finance loan, we will apply the same procedure. We take measures to avoid this. Once you place your order, we send you a confirmation product questionnaire to ensure that the product you ordered is the one you wanted to purchase. If you confirm said questionnaire and the product is the same based on the order number and the information you sent us upon receiving the product including pictures, we will not honor the claim, refunds, or returns.
-
Do you only finance businesses?Yes, we only finance businesses currently. Sole proprietors can apply. We do not offer personal loans just equipment financing and business loans.
-
What if I am denied financing?If you are denied financing, there is nothing we can do. We cannot guarantee that you will be approved for financing.

What is your policy on payments?Once you place your order and the payment is processed, you need to wait for the shipping time which can range from 7 to 75 days. If during that process you cancel the payment with your bank, credit card, or paypal.com you will be charged a $25.00 chargeback fee and you may be liable for the shipping cost if the items were shipped. Before you open a claim with your bank or PayPal, you need to write to us. If you placed an order, an order number was created, we processed the shipment, paid for the shipment, and during the process, you changed your mind, this is not a valid claim. As the purchaser and consumer, you placed the order, you submitted payment details to pay for the product (taxes and shipment) were included in the total price. Just because you changed your mind during the shipment period, we cannot honor this type of claim. For instance, you cannot order a Big Mac at McDonald's, pay for it, eat half of it, and then cancel the payment. This is considered deceptive. Also, if you received the product, the product was delivered, no damages were found, you signed a receipt delivery order and later you file a claim with your bank, credit card company, PayPal.com, or any payment provider for a refund, fraud claim, we cannot honor this claim. All orders are placed and shipped upon payment being processed for this reason. You agree to hold us harmless, and you agree to payment of products once an order is placed and payment is processed. You may be held liable for the full cost, chargebacks, and shipping costs if you file a claim with any financial provider you utilize to make payments including banks, credit card companies, Zelle, payment processors, and PayPal, and the fees we acquire by said payment providers. The only exceptions are those with returned orders, damaged goods, damage by carrier, and missing parts. Also, you cannot file a claim in the event you are seeking a refund on a return order, not the same product delivered, missing items on a product, or damaged product until the claim has been processed. Any claims you make to your bank, credit card company, or PayPal.com will not be considered as valid if you file a claim form and until the claim has been processed, which can take 30 to 120 business days.

Fraudulent orders, deceptive practices, and buyer scamsA fraudulent order is considered when you use a stolen credit card, debit card, or any other payment method to purchase a product. If you place an order with financial information that does not belong to you, you will be held liable for the price of the product, and shipping costs and we will proceed with criminal charges or report it to criminal authorities. In addition, we will consider any of these actions as being abusive, fraudulent, or deceptive by buyers. 1. Product Was Not Delivered One of the most common types of buyer fraud is an old classic updated for the Internet age: the product was not delivered. This one has been around since the days of mail order, and the scam remains unchanged because it’s effective. In this type of fraud, the buyer will purchase an item, then later claim they never received the product they purchased even though they did. We will not refund you an item if you utilize this deceptive practice. We take precautionary steps to prevent these problems from happening in the first place. This is our solution. The most common solution here is to ship items with delivery tracking. This way, you’ll know where the package is from the time it leaves your warehouse or shipping center until it reaches your customer’s door. Delivery tracking can mean an extra charge for us in some instances, we want to prevent consumer fraud. We will not refund money until we obtain feedback from the carrier. If the carrier can provide proof of shipment, delivery, and other information this type of fraud or misleading practice by a consumer will not be tolerated and no refund will be issued. For pricier items, we may request a signature when the package arrives. This can be less convenient because the customer must be home or in their business to receive the item, but it protects us from some big losses. 2. Return Abuse Our second fraud example is another one that’s been around for decades: return abuse. Return abuse is often categorized as “friendly fraud,” but by no means do we tolerate this. Other forms of return abuse include: Returning stolen merchandise for refunds Finding receipts of someone else’s purchase Returning it as if it were a purchased item. As you can see, there are a lot of variations here. This makes combatting return fraud common. To prevent this we, have: Close return policy with specific dates. Track purchases and returns to spot scammers. Set clear return windows with specific dates. Require receipts for all returns, pictures, maybe even video and identification cards. We have restocking fees. We may require pictures, videos, identification, and more before the return. We will analyze order details payment and other information. 3. Item Not as Described In the modern online eCommerce landscape, the “item not delivered” scam has gotten heavy competition from the “item not as described” scam. This scam is trickier for us to combat than the item not delivered variant, but we will not tolerate it. How this scam works is a buyer will purchase an item, and when they receive it, they will file a complaint that the item wasn’t as the seller described it. Like the item not delivered scam, we will not refund the money if we suspect the items not described scam. The most common step we take is to ensure that photos of the items on our website should and will be the same before shipping and at the time of shipping. This is why we ask for pictures from you, even videos, and even may ask for a picture of you with your ID and the item. This way, there’s a photographic record of the item’s condition as it leaves our control.
