Renewals Introduction
At YouLend, renewals refer to the process of a previously funded merchant applying for and receiving additional funding.
Merchants can either apply once their existing financing is paid off, or merchants can be eligible to apply for an early renewal before they have finished repaying their existing financing.
Good to knowMerchants are usually eligible for a new cash advance after they have paid off around 50% of their existing advance, depending on their payment performance
Where can a merchant renew?

Early Renewals
An early renewal is when an additional funding has been created for a merchant, before they have finished paying off their existing or initial loan.
At YouLend merchants only pay down one financing at a time. When an early renewal is funded it does not receive payments until the initial has fully paid.
If the early renewal has a different sweep percentage to the initial - the sweep percentage of the initial is adjusted for the remainder of the term.
For partners facilitating repayments, see our guide on the topic here.
