Deal Funding Coordinator
An MCA deal funding coordinator is the operational role managing the post-approval to funding workflow — coordinating stipulation collection, contract execution, funding call scheduling, and wire transfer initiation — accelerating the critical approval-to-funding phase.
Why This Matters
Deal funding coordinators eliminate the major source of approval-to-funding fallout: operational friction between approval and wire delivery. The role: outreach to approved merchants for stipulation collection, document review for completeness and accuracy, contract distribution and signature coordination, funding call scheduling and execution, wire initiation and confirmation. Compensation typically $45K-$70K base salary plus performance incentives based on funding rate (approved-to-funded conversion). Strong coordinators measurably improve funder economics by reducing post-approval cancellation rates.
Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do funders need dedicated deal funding coordinators?
Approval-to-funding fallout is a major source of lost revenue. Without dedicated coordination, approved deals languish during stipulation collection, merchants disengage, and competitive offers steal the merchant. Dedicated coordinators measurably improve funding rate (typically 10-20 percentage point improvement) by maintaining momentum through the post-approval phase.
What metrics matter for deal funding coordinator performance?
Approved-to-funded conversion rate (highest priority — directly affects funder economics), average approval-to-funding cycle time (faster funding wins competitive deals), and stipulation completion accuracy (reducing post-funding stipulation issues). Compensation typically tied to funding rate performance.
