Working with Mike Kowal was truly an exceptional experience from start to finish. He was personable, highly responsive, and consistently communicative, taking the time to educate me throughout the entire process so I fully understood what was happening at every step.

What truly set Mike apart was his honesty. He reviewed multiple lender options with me in a fair, transparent way, walking me through the pros and cons of each and helping me understand every angle. He encouraged me to move forward only with what felt right for my business, never once making me feel pressured to choose him or Upwise. That level of professionalism is rare.

Mike also worked hard to build genuine personal rapport — something no other representative I spoke with did. He took the time to understand my business, explored different paths, and made sure I felt confident and comfortable throughout the decision-making process.

The follow-up from Mike and every member of his team has been above and beyond anything I’ve experienced with other lenders. Every interaction feels thoughtful, client-focused, supportive and most important- genuine. I’m incredibly grateful for the experience and would confidently recommend Mike to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, ethical, and truly client-first lending partner.

I was able to secure a business loan in an industry that typically has a hard time getting approved. Craig and the team at Upwise made it happen from start to finish. Professional, responsive, and results-driven. A+ experience all around!
Upwise Capital and Daniel Joseph were great in helping me obtain financing and grow my janitorial business. Mr. Joseph is quick, efficient and professional. Funding was complete in just a few hours. Daniel is very detailed and easy to work with. He stuck with me from beginning to end. Thank you Upwise Capital and Daniel for helping to expand my business. I appreciate all your help.
The rates for loans are horrible, and if you disagree with them, they get angry and hang up on you lol. It is clear they are in business to get the best deal for themselves, not the customer. Leo Lamb, one of their funding managers comes across like a used car salesman. When I called them out for their shady practices, he got very aggravated.

Update: Leo contacted me, and after basically insulting me concerning their prior behavior, I decided to let them run my application. After being ghosted for the day, they finally came back and denied due to another loan my business was involved in. These people get their feelings hurt way to easy to be in this business. I would not recommend this company to anyone.

The process was very simple and fast! Craig is a pro and helped so much during what I thought would be a stressful transaction. As we know it’s so hard to receive funding for cannabis, or so I thought! I highly recommend Upwise Capital.

We worked with Leo for our line of credit. We are a trucking company an can be a challenge to secure financing. The process was smooth and fast funding. Our only complaint would be that Leo was a little impatience when it came to our decision making. We are very thankful for the funding and would do business with them again. Thanks,
Upwise

You are always hesitant when working with a finance firm to borrow money to grow your company But, I highly recommend Upwise Capital. Lou and Marc went out of their way to ensure everything was taken care of. Very professional in all steps taken to secure the financing I needed. I look forward to continuing the business relationship.
I rarely write reviews, but my experience with Leo was absolutely. Leo was patient, knowledgeable, and extremely responsive. During a hectic work week he continued to bare with me to be sure that i had all the information I was requesting. He got me the capital I needed within one day. I highly recommend this company!

Cannabis Real Estate Financing

A cannabis real estate loan or cannabis asset-based loan is secured by assets instead of emphasizing cash flow.  This is typically real estate or whatever assets a business has on its balance sheet.  The lender will typically use collateral which can be quickly and easily liquidated.  Assets can also be accounts receivables, equipment, land, crop, purchase orders and inventory.  Cannabis asset backed loans secured by collateral, are most often structured as term loans and revolving lines of credit.

Term Loan

A traditional business term loan is a lump sum of capital that you pay back with regular repayments at a fixed interest rate.  The “term” in “term loan” comes from its set repayment term length, which will typically be one to five years long. Most business owners use the proceeds of term loans to finance a specific, one-off investment for their small business.
