What does a second position merchant cash advance involve?
A second position merchant cash advance is a new advance taken while a first one is still being repaid; in the example below, the first takes $473 a day and the second adds its own withdrawal.
What do funders look at first?
Mainly two things: what the first withdrawal leaves in the account every day, and whether the first contract permits a second position.
What room does the first advance leave?
Funders subtract the first withdrawal from an average day's deposits. In the example, $473 already goes out every day before the second funder is paid.
