Our Interests Are Fully Aligned
Because Payment Guarantees LLC earns only when your financing closes, we are motivated to work as hard as possible on every transaction. There is no upfront payment to recover, no refund to process — if your deal does not close, neither of us gets paid. That is the cleanest possible alignment between advisor and client.
No upfront payment
You sign an engagement letter disclosing the fee structure — no money changes hands until financing closes
Bank pays at closing
The financing institution deducts our success fee from proceeds before disbursing funds to you
Borrower authorization
Your engagement letter authorizes the lender to pay our fee at closing — standard practice for trade finance facilitators
