FAQ

Stacking detection questions

What is MCA stacking?

A merchant taking a new advance while older ones are still being repaid. Each new position raises the risk that none get paid back.

What if the lender isn't one you know?

It's still caught by its payment pattern and shown as pattern detected, with the same numbers as a named lender.

Can it tell if a deal I already funded got stacked later?

Yes, if you upload statements from after the funding date. The statements you underwrote with can only show what existed then.

Which plans include stacking detection?

Every plan. Fraud checks, MCA positions and true revenue are part of every analysis.
