KEY PROVISIONS

What SB 183 requires

Total repayment amount

Providers must disclose the full amount a Utah business will repay across the life of the financing.

All fees and charges

Every fee and charge associated with the financing must be itemized so the borrower can see the total price of capital.

Payment frequency and method

The cadence and method of collection — daily, weekly, or percentage-of-sales — must be disclosed upfront.

Estimated annualized cost

Utah requires an estimated annualized cost of financing so owners can compare offers on a standardized basis.

Prepayment penalties

Any prepayment penalties or non-discounted early-payoff provisions must be disclosed in advance.

PENALTIES

What happens if a provider doesn't comply?

Providers that fail to register or deliver the required disclosures are subject to state regulatory action. Non-compliance can strengthen borrower challenges to unfair or misleading MCA contracts.
