Established 2026 Denver, Colorado Direct Capital

Capital from
the principal,
not the chain.

Arin Fund commits its own capital to operating businesses across the United States. The Fund underwrites in-house, signs from principal, and answers its own files. No syndication, no broker layer, no surprise at signing.

Notice of Direct Capital

The Fund underwrites and funds from its own balance sheet. Arin Fund does not broker, syndicate, or refer files to outside parties. Each file is written, signed, and serviced by one team — without intermediaries between the operator and the capital.

On the Layered-Capital Problem

Most "lenders"
you meet are introducers.

The merchant funding market runs on layers. Brokers passing the file along, ISOs collecting on the spread, marketplaces routing applications to whichever shop bids fastest. Owners often discover, well after signing, that the people they spoke to were not the ones writing the check.

  • i.Pricing assembled from factor rates and side fees that surface at signature, not at intake.
  • ii.Boilerplate programs that read past your industry, your seasonality, and your runway.
  • iii.A relay race of intermediaries — none of whom can speak for the funder behind them.
  • iv.Silence after the wire — no analyst on the file, no team that knows the account.

The Fund removed
the layers.

Arin Fund underwrites and funds from its own balance sheet. Each file moves through one underwriter, one decision, one wire. The terms read at intake are the terms signed and the terms honored — without revision, without reissue, without surprise.

From Application to Wire

Three steps. One desk.

From the moment a file lands with the Fund to the moment funds arrive in the operator's account, the same team holds the work — without hand-offs, without queue time at outside parties.

i.

Submit the file.

Send a brief application and the most recent business bank statements. Five minutes of your time. No hard credit pull at intake. No obligation to proceed.

ii.

Receive a reading.

Our underwriters read the file in-house and respond with a clear offer — typically the same day. The cost, the schedule, and the structure sit on the page before any signature.

iii.

Close the file.

Countersign the agreement and the wire moves from the Fund's balance sheet to yours. Most files clear inside twenty-four hours of approval.

Open a File

Speak with the funder.
Not the chain.

Five-minute application. Same-day decision. Wires posting in twenty-four.

The Mandate

Capital that is read,
not assembled.

From application to wire — what working with a direct fund actually looks like, and the four working principles the desk holds itself to on every file.

III
I.
Structure

Built around
the file.

No two operations breathe at the same rhythm. The Fund reads your deposit cadence, your seasonality, and your runway before drafting a structure — then drafts the structure to fit. The template never decides the file.

Each file written for the operation, not against a script.

II.
Pace

Decisions at the
speed of the desk.

Files arrive on the underwriters' desks the day they come in. Most receive a response within hours — not after a syndication meeting, not after the file is shopped, not next week.

Most files clear from approval to wire inside twenty-four hours.

III.
Pricing

What is quoted
is what is wired.

The factor rate, the total payback, and the schedule sit on the page before any signature. No back-end deductions at funding. No surprise debits later. The number read at intake is the number the Fund honors.

Pricing is written once, signed once, held once.

IV.
Continuity

One desk, intake
through final payment.

From the first call through the last debit, the file stays with the people who wrote it. No call-center handoff, no rotating reps, no introduction to a stranger after the wire clears.

A direct line — to the people who know the file.

IV
A Note on Capital

The strongest capital relationships are written so both sides win — because the Fund is only repaid when the operation succeeds.

Arin Fund was formed on a plain conviction: business owners deserve a funder with skin in the deal — not a forwarder collecting a margin between two strangers.

The Working Standard

What sets the desk apart.

  • Pricing on the page — no back-end fees, no surprise debits.
  • Same-day decisions written by in-house underwriters.
  • One account team from approval through final payment.
  • Structures shaped to actual cash flow, not to a template.
  • A direct line to the desk that wrote the file.

Schedule of Programs

Five structures, each
with a fit and a misfit.

Each of the structures below answers a different operating reality. The Fund names the fit and the misfit on every one — because the wrong structure costs more than no capital at all.

V
Standard. The Fund points you to the structure that fits your file — and says what it costs and how it works on day one.

The Fund will tell you which structure fits — directly.

Our underwriters read the file, identify the structure that fits, and lay real options on the page. If the right answer is no answer from the Fund, you will hear that from us straight — no runaround, no pressure.

Eligibility

What direct funding looks like
at every credit profile.

FICO is one signal in the file. Revenue, deposit pattern, and existing exposure each carry weight of their own. Below: an honest map of how the desk reads each profile.

VI
A
Tier A · Prime

680–800 FICO · Strong Revenue · Clean History

  • Monthly payment programs at the Fund's best in-house factor rates
  • Asset-backed revolving credit eligibility
  • Lowest direct-funder pricing the desk writes
  • Highest approval ceilings available

The strongest position. Consistent deposit history unlocks the lowest pricing the Fund offers.

B
Tier B · Near-Prime

600–679 FICO · Moderate Revenue

  • Monthly payment structures available with strong revenue
  • Factor rates beginning at 1.17
  • Hybrid bi-weekly payment schedules
  • Consolidation structures may apply

Strong deposit patterns offset credit gaps. Underwriting weights cash flow heavily here.

C
Tier C · Cash-Flow Driven

Below 600 FICO · Deposit-Driven Approval

  • Weekly payment structures
  • Daily payment structures
  • Approval keyed to deposit volume and frequency
  • Monthly programs are not written at this profile

The Fund structures conservatively here — only what your deposits can carry. We pass on files that do not make sense for the operation.

Note. FICO is one signal — not the file. Tier A begins at 680, Tier B covers 600–679, Tier C runs below 600. Final approval reads against average monthly deposits, deposit frequency, count of negative days, and existing exposure. A 670 file with weak deposits often qualifies for less than a 610 file with strong, consistent flow. The Fund reads all of it before pricing the file.

VII
The Full Read

What the desk evaluates.

i.

Average Monthly Deposits

The starting line for every file. The Fund typically structures between 75% and 150% of monthly deposits, depending on tier and program.

ii.

Deposit Frequency

How often the money lands counts as much as how much. Steady daily deposits read healthier than sporadic large ones.

iii.

Negative Days

Days closing in the red are a real flag. More than five to seven a month sharply reduces both options and approval ceiling.

iv.

Existing Positions

Active advances cap what the desk will write. Heavy stacking is the quickest way to limit options and raise risk.

v.

FICO & Credit Profile

Personal credit shapes program access and pricing — though strong revenue and deposit patterns can offset lower scores.

vi.

Approval Ceiling

The maximum the desk will write given everything combined. Calculated before structuring, so the file is never over-leveraged on day one.

Notes & Inquiries

Plain answers, no fine print.

No sales script, no sleight of hand. Below: what working with a direct fund actually looks like, in the words the desk would use across a file.

VIII
i.What makes Arin Fund different?+
The Fund underwrites and funds from its own balance sheet. You see the full cost before any signature, you speak with the same team from intake to final payment, and the answer to every funding question comes from the Fund — not from a partner the file was forwarded to.
ii.How quickly can the file fund?+
Most files receive a same-day decision. Once countersigned, the wire typically lands within twenty-four hours. The process is engineered for the speed an operating business actually needs.
iii.What does it cost? Are there hidden fees?+
No hidden fees. The factor rate, total payback, and full schedule sit on the page before signature. The price quoted is the price wired against. Transparency on day one is how the Fund builds files that pay back.
iv.What is required to apply?+
A short application and the most recent three months of business bank statements. That is the start. No hard credit pull at intake. The desk may request additional documentation depending on program and amount, and will always say exactly what is needed.
v.What if the operation already carries positions?+
The desk works with stacked files regularly. Depending on revenue, deposits, and current exposure, positions can sometimes be consolidated into a single schedule — or new capital written alongside what is in place. The Fund reads the full picture and offers honest options.
vi.Can the Fund help us move toward longer-term financing?+
Yes. Many files begin in short-term capital and graduate to monthly programs or asset-backed revolving credit. The desk maps a path from where the operation sits to where it is headed — and says clearly what it takes to get there.
vii.What are the minimum qualifications?+
Generally six months in operation, $15,000+ in monthly revenue, and an active business bank account. FICO matters but is not everything — strong deposits and consistent revenue absorb a great deal. Apply and the desk will say exactly where the file stands.
viii.Who is on the file after funding?+
The same team that wrote the file. The Fund does not vanish after the wire clears. There is a direct line to the people managing the account for renewals, questions, or anything else that arises. One number, one team.

A question we did not cover? Ask, and you will hear it straight.
