Professional Services funding in Texas — what to expect.

Texas service businesses — Houston-area energy services, Austin tech consultancies, Dallas marketing firms, and statewide legal/accounting practices — face AR-heavy cash cycles. Many use MCAs for bridge capital and graduate to LOCs as they stabilize.

Typical funding range

$15,000 – $400,000 — that's the band most professional services in Texas fall into. Deals smaller than $10K are uncommon (the math rarely works for the funder). Deals over $250K typically require stronger profiles or collateral.

What funders look for

  • 12+ months operating preferred
  • $15K+/mo revenue typical floor; $25K+/mo unlocks better terms
  • AR concentration matters — single-client >50% of revenue is a yellow flag
  • Texas 2026 disclosure law applies to sales-based financing

What to bring to the application

The faster you can ship these to a funder, the faster you close. Most underwriting decisions for professional services in Texas happen in 2–4 hours once docs are complete.

  • Last 3–6 months business bank statements
  • Recent AR aging report (B2B services)
  • Voided business check
  • Driver's license for the majority owner

The math

A typical professional services deal in Texas lands at a factor rate between 1.25 and 1.42. On a $50,000 advance at 1.32, you'd repay $66,000 over 9–12 months — about $260–$305/day in ACH. Our factor rate calculator lets you plug in your own numbers.

Frequently asked questions

Should a Texas law firm consider an MCA?
Rarely. Law firms with predictable retainer revenue do better with a fintech LOC. For firms with lumpy contingency-based revenue, an MCA may bridge gaps — but expect a higher factor rate due to the revenue volatility.
How does Texas's 2026 disclosure law affect service-firm MCAs?
Funders licensed in Texas in 2026 must provide standardized disclosures including APR-equivalent. The approval bar didn't change; the paperwork did. Read it carefully.
Is energy-services AR factorable?
Often yes — large oil & gas operators are creditworthy counterparties. Specialty energy factors price tighter than generalist MCAs. We route energy-services leads to factoring when the AR profile fits.
