Same-day funding fits genuine time-critical situations: replacing failed equipment, making payroll after a delayed customer payment, buying discounted inventory before a deadline, or covering an unexpected MA tax or repair bill. For these, the speed is worth the premium a Somerville business pays versus slower financing.
It is not the cheapest capital, so it is best reserved for needs where a day's delay costs more than the financing. Timberfield Financial will tell a Cambridge owner when a lower-cost, slightly slower option makes more sense.
