HOW IT WORKS

Customer applies in-store or online using your Customer Application Link.

The Terrace Finance platform works to match the customer with a lender.

Notification of approval status is sent to both you and the customer.

You create and send an invoice for the final total of the goods within the merchant portal.

The contract and first payment are initiated by the assigned lender.

You receive confirmation from the lender and release the goods!
HOW TO TAKE APPLICATIONS
Our application is PAPERLESS! All you need is your unique Customer Application Link from your Welcome Kit to get started. You received this when you signed up with Terrace Finance. Request yours below.

Click the “+” Sign

Certain fields within the invoice will be auto-populated. You will need to fill in the rest. Click the “+” sign to enter the product in formation of the item(s). Keep clicking the “+” to add more items.
You can upload your own invoice from your computer, but it must contain the same required info such as brand, SKU, etc. To upload your own, click the “+” sign and then below it hit the blue “select file(s)” button to import.
Submit

In order to submit the final invoice, fields in red should be auto-populated by the system. Fields in green* should be completed by you.
If the lender has not issued an approval yet, the Approval Amount field will be blank. You can click Save and come back to the invoice when the customer receives their approval.
Click the Save and Submit buttons when all fields are complete.
*For TEMPOE, only enter product cost. Tax is remitted by TEMPOE.
