Why this table has blanks
We publish a rate only when we hold a primary source for it — Universal Funding's own published material, or a written quote we obtained. We have not completed that collection for every field yet, and we will not fill the gap with a plausible-looking number. If you hold a current written quote from Universal Funding, send it and it goes into the index anonymised.

The questions to ask Universal Funding before signing
These are the five that decide your real cost, and the answers should be in writing.
- What is the discount rate, per what period, and what happens on day 31, 45 and 60?
- What is the advance rate, and how fast is the reserve released after my customer pays?
- Is there a monthly minimum, and what does a slow month cost me?
- What is the term, the notice window and the early termination fee?
- If this is non-recourse: give me the covered-event definition, and an example of a claim you declined.
