Welcome Loan Star Partners!
Capital Connections, just as it sounds, is the connection with you, our valued Referral Partners, and ARF Financial in order to remain in the know on all the latest promotions, webinar information, contests, prospecting tips, product and underwriting changes as well as success stories from other partners. If it’s happening in our Loan Star Rewards Program, you can find out about it here.
Bankroll addresses the #1 concern of business owners everywhere who require the flexibility to access capital at a moment’s notice, while keeping their cash flow stable. We do this by providing highest approvals (up to $1,500,000), a fixed loan term (up to 36 months), and a fixed payment, PLUS the flexibility to draw additional funds or pay down the principal on an unlimited basis!
You decide when you want to borrow, how much you want to borrow, the amount of your payment, and how long to keep the line open. You are in complete control based upon your business’s unique needs that may change over time. And, Bankroll provides early payoffs without penalty!
With today’s inflationary instabilities, now more than ever business owners must be financially prepared to pivot at any moment. That means quick access to the most affordable capital is essential to keep pace with the challenges they face. ARF Financial understands those changing needs and has introduced an Interest-Only Revolving Line of Credit, IO-Bankroll, to help merchants maneuver as quickly as the market fluctuates.
With IO-Bamkroll, clients only pay the interest on their outstanding balance for up to a year and can draw funds or make partial principal payments as often as they need during the 11-month revolving period. This ensures the client is in complete control of their finances based on the changing needs of the business.
With elevated upfront and residual commissions, generous performance bonuses, overrides from downstream partners, and exclusive access to superior products and promotions, there’s never been a better time to become a Loan Star Referral Partner! Check out the stellar new benefits that automatically come with this partnership.

A Restaurant Survival Tool for Inflation: Cash Discounting
Cash discounting is growing in acceptance with more than 30,000 restaurants and businesses adopting cash discounting programs. Even large corporations like Hilton and Starbucks are coming on board. While a small number of consumers will opt to pay cash, there has been little to no negative effects on consumers choices or loss of business by the merchant.
Commercial Disclosure Laws Create Legal Challenges for Referral Partners
You may be aware that new commercial financial product disclosure laws have been adopted in several states, but did you know that these laws impose significant obligations on both the providers of these products and the referral partners who source the customers for these providers? Are you and your funders ready for these changes? Here’s what to do.
MCA Funders in Legal Jeopardy Due to New Court Decisions
The merchant cash advance (MCA) industry has often walked a “legal” tight rope in its product offerings. Recent decisions by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of NY (in Manhattan) have called certain MCA practices into question in upholding legal challenges to these practices as a legal sham which may violate the Racketeering and Corrupt Practices Act (“RICO”).
