Affiliate Disclosure

CashFlow Alternatives is an independent publisher. This page explains, in plain language, how the site earns money, which relationships it has, and the rules that keep those relationships from touching the cost comparisons you read.

The short version of our affiliate policy

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and use the service, the site may earn a commission from the provider. You pay nothing extra. Today that applies to exactly one company: Kashu, the credit-to-cash service reviewed across these guides. Those links carry the rel="sponsored" attribute, so search engines can tell they are commercial.

How to spot them in practice: affiliate links point to kashupay.com and carry tracking parameters, and the tables around them treat the paid option exactly like the unpaid ones. Price, funding speed, and lien policy come from the same disclosure sources for every row.

What we earn, and from whom

The site has one affiliate relationship at launch: Kashu, via kashupay.com. Everyone else is unpaid. No lender, broker, or advance provider in the comparison tables pays us anything. Term loans, lines of credit, invoice factoring, and cash advance providers appear because readers comparing cash advances need them there. That is the only reason.

If commission terms ever change, this page gets a new date.

What affiliate money never does

• Buy placement. Kashu appears in comparisons as one option among several, priced by the same method as everything else: total dollar cost and APR-equivalent over a realistic window. Its 8.5% flat fee is published the same way as a competitor’s factor rate.
• Silence the downsides. Pages that discuss Kashu also list who the product fits poorly, and the MCA alternatives guide prices cheaper options next to it. Every downside stays visible.
• Touch the methodology. Figures come from provider disclosures and public sources. No source of compensation gets access to a draft before publication.

If a comparison ever flatters an option beyond its numbers, that is a bug. We treat it that way. Corrections go to every page that repeats the figure.

Required notices and disclaimers

Nothing on this site is financial, legal, or tax advice. Figures are market approximations as of the date published; actual terms depend on your creditworthiness, revenue, and the provider’s underwriting. The editorial standards behind these pages are described in About the Author, and the pricing method is described in each guide.

If a provider’s published terms differ from a figure here, we check the source. The correction ships the same day, with the page date updated to match.
