Become an agent · two income streams

Two income streams. One agent role.

As a LeaderShield Funding agent you write merchant cash advances and place the Merchant Growth Platform — earning on funding commissions plus recurring subscription commissions and lifetime residuals. We handle underwriting, funding, and platform delivery; you build the book.

No fees to apply. Build recurring income alongside your funding deals.

How agents get paid

One relationship. Two ways to earn.

Every merchant you bring to LeaderShield Funding can fund and subscribe — so a single client can pay you twice, with the platform side paying you again every month.

01

Fund the deal

Place a merchant cash advance and earn from the Opening Agent Pool — 32.5% of the gross funding commission. Independent agents keep the full 32.5%, with performance accelerators adding up to +2.5%.

02

Place the platform

Add the Merchant Growth Platform and earn up to 55% of the commissionable basis on premium products at the Elite tier — up to 60% with accelerators.

03

Earn for the lifetime

Keep tiered lifetime residuals on active subscriptions, so the book you build keeps paying you month after month — not just on the first sale.

Recurring residual income

Build a book that pays every month.

Subscription commissions are earned up front; residuals keep crediting you for the life of each active subscription. Starter is commission-eligible but not residual-eligible.

Who does well here

If you can open a conversation with a business owner, you can earn here.

The strongest agents pair funding with the platform — solving a merchant's cash need today and their growth need every month after. You don't need a book of MCA deals to start; you need merchants who want capital, customers, or both. We provide the products, the underwriting, and the back office.

Income disclosure. Compensation figures shown — including the Opening Agent Pool share, performance accelerators, subscription commission rates, and lifetime residual percentages — are illustrative and governed by the LeaderShield Funding agent compensation plan, which is subject to change. Agents are independent contractors, not employees, and earnings vary based on production, product mix, and effort. No level of earnings is guaranteed. Merchant cash advance funding is the purchase of future receivables and is not a traditional APR-based loan; all merchant terms are subject to underwriting review.
