[edit] Merchant cash advance
Seems to be spam but since no company is mentioned I did not use CSD. Four pages were made with the same info and just a slightly different name. They were edited to be redirects to this page. Gtstricky 21:15, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
- Comment The "sale" of future sales is probably an encyclopedic topic, though I'm not sure under what name it's best known. It's somewhere between a derivative investment and a loan, probably the business equivalent of a title loan, so legitimate banks don't touch it. This is written as a sales piece but could be salvaged with sources. --Dhartung | Talk 21:34, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

- Delete: Dhartung, you're thinking of the "Factoring (finance)" article. I think we're fine with that and can get rid of this one. --A. B. (talk) 01:38, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
- Merge with Factoring (finance). Merchant account factoring is just as encyclopedic a topic as invoice factoring; both are simply ways of generating off balance sheet funding, and so should be included in the general factoring article. --Malleus Fatuorum (talk) 02:01, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

- Delete The only thing missing is a PDF of an application and an urge to "Sign up today!" - Mdbrownmsw (talk) 20:20, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
- Delete, then, and thanks to Malleus for pointing to the correct comprehensive article. --Dhartung | Talk 23:19, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
