01 About Surge Financial

Surge Financial is a commercial financing advisory firm and registered ISO (Independent Sales Organization) headquartered in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. We are not a bank, direct lender, mortgage company, or credit union. We do not make lending decisions, issue credit, or fund transactions directly.

Our role is to help business owners and real estate investors explore available financing options by connecting them with third-party funding sources, lenders, and capital providers. All financing arrangements facilitated through Surge Financial are subject to the independent underwriting, approval, and funding decisions of those third-party providers.

Nothing on this website constitutes a commitment to lend, a guarantee of approval, or an offer of credit. All information provided through our website and services is for general informational and advisory purposes only and does not constitute financial, legal, tax, or investment advice.

  • Connecting qualified applicants with third-party funding sources and capital providers
  • Providing general guidance on available financing structures and programs
  • Facilitating the application and documentation process on behalf of clients

Our services are advisory and facilitation-based in nature. We do not guarantee that any inquiry will result in a financing offer, approval, or funding. Financing availability, terms, rates, and eligibility are determined entirely by the third-party funding sources we work with, subject to their independent underwriting criteria.

04 No Guarantee of Approval or Funding

Surge Financial makes no representations, warranties, or guarantees of any kind regarding:

  • Whether you will receive a financing offer
  • The specific terms, rates, amounts, or structure of any financing offer
  • The speed at which any application will be reviewed, approved, or funded
  • The suitability of any particular financing product for your situation

Any ranges, timelines, or general guidelines presented on our website are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent commitments or guarantees. All actual terms are set by third-party funding sources at their sole discretion.
