Merchant cash advance debt in Connecticut

What Connecticut publishes about UCC filings and commercial financing, and how to check your own record. Informational only, not legal advice.

Your UCC record in Connecticut

Funders file a UCC-1 financing statement with the Connecticut Secretary of the State UCC (business.ct.gov) to put other creditors on notice. Search it by your exact legal business name. Lien position: a UCC filing names a secured party, not who gets paid first.

Levraq reads this registry: 984 filings naming a known MCA funder are on record, last read 2026-11-04. This is one state's registry, not national coverage. A matching filing shows on your Debt Pressure Report; no match is not proof that nothing was filed.

Commercial financing disclosure in Connecticut

Connecticut General Statutes §§36a-861 to 36a-872 (Public Act 23-201), effective 2024-07-01: A provider must register with the Banking Commissioner and, when extending a specific offer of sales-based financing, disclose in the Commissioner's format the total financing amount, disbursement amount, finance charge, total repayment amount, estimated repayment period, payment amounts, other fees and prepayment charges. Threshold stated in the statute: covers sales-based financing of $250,000 or less (§36a-861(1)). Source, checked 2026-11-04.

Confession of judgment in Connecticut

Levraq has not recorded a Connecticut statute on confessions of judgment in commercial contracts. Whether a confession of judgment in an MCA contract can be entered against a Connecticut business is a question for a lawyer licensed there.

Work the numbers

Two calculators that need nothing from any registry: the annualized cost of an advance, and the share of revenue going to remittances. The Debt Check combines both with what you report.

The cash you actually received.

On the contract, e.g. 1.35 means you repay $1.35 per $1.
