This week I'm joined by Ari Paige, founder of Fund and Grow, a 19-year-old business credit consulting company that has helped over 35,000 businesses access more than $2.1 billion in funding through 0% introductory business credit cards. Ari originally got into this space as a real estate investor himself, which gives him a grounded, practical perspective on exactly where capital gaps show up.The conversation covers how real estate investors can use business credit cards as gap financing, bridge capital, and rehab funding within BRRRR and fix-and-flip strategies, and why compliance in this space matters far more than most people realize. If you've ever hit a ceiling in your investing because funds were tied up in the last deal, this episode is for you.Episode Timeline & Highlights[0:51] – Jordan introduces Ari Paige and Fund and Grow, previewing the topic of business credit for real estate capital[4:00] – Ari explains the origin of Fund and Grow and why real estate investors are the core audience for 0% business credit cards[5:17] – Jordan breaks down three investor types and asks which level benefits most from Fund and Grow's model[6:37] – Ari explains bridge capital, reducing hard money costs, and why 80% of Fund and Grow clients are real estate investors[7:44] – The key difference between traditional loans and business credit cards: you only pay when you use the balance[8:52] – Real cost comparison: hard money at 3–5 points up front vs. 0% business credit with no payment until the balance is placed[9:16] – JPMorgan's $80 billion small business lending commitment and why business credit cards are the primary vehicle banks are using[11:13] – How compliant payment services like Plastiq and Melius let investors pay vendors and fund escrow accounts using credit cards[12:10] – What makes a credit stacking company non-compliant: bait-and-switch marketing, cash liquidation schemes, and hidden fees[18:15] – Fund and Grow's credentials: Inc. 5000 for seven years, A+ BBB, and a new industry association being formed to self-police credit stacking compliance[28:52] – Ari walks through the BRRRR infinite money loop using business credit for down payments, rehab costs, and gap financing[37:09] – Fund and Grow generated $175 million in funding in 2025, with 72.4% coming from post-approval negotiation coaching[41:37] – Why AI cannot replace Fund and Grow's consulting: sequencing strategy, real-time approval data, and 35,000 client history[44:15] – How to get started with Fund and Grow's free pre-qualification tool at fundandgrow.com5 Key TakeawaysBusiness Credit Cards Are Not Loans — Unlike hard money or bank loans, 0% business credit cards don't start costing you anything until you use them. That means you can hold $200,000 in available credit and pay zero interest between deals, making them a fundamentally different capital tool.Compliance Is Not Optional in This Space — Many credit stacking companies are violating FTC rules right now, including misrepresenting products as "funding" instead of credit cards, promising cash liquidation, and applying for personal cards that hurt consumer credit scores. Working with the wrong company can damage your credit, expose your affiliates, and draw FTC scrutiny.The Infinite Money Loop Works Across Strategies — Whether you're wholesaling, doing fix-and-flips, or running BRRRR deals, business credit cards can cover gap financing, down payments, and rehab costs. The 12 to 18 month 0% window is long enough to complete most exits before interest ever kicks in.Most Funding Gains Come From Negotiation, Not Applications — Fund and Grow's 2025 data shows that 72.4% of the $175 million they generated came after the initial application, through client coaching on limit increases, card consolidation, and underwriter reconsideration calls. Application help alone is not where the value lives.AI Cannot Replace Human Credit Strategy — AI can't tell you how a lender is evaluating your profile right now, build a sequencing strategy based on last month's approvals and declines, or apply the judgment built from 35,000 clients. People using ChatGPT for credit applications are racking up hard inquiries and getting no approvals.Links & ResourcesFund and Grow — fundandgrow.comFund and Grow Pre-Qualification Tool — fundandgrow.com (free, soft inquiry, no obligation)SmrtPhone — the only phone system built for real estate investorsPlastiq — plastiq.com (compliant business card payment service)Melius Payments — compliant business card payment serviceBill.com — compliant business card payment serviceIf the idea of using 0% business credit to fund deposits, rehab costs, and gap financing clicked for you during this episode, send it to a wholesaler or flipper in your network who's been stuck waiting on capital between deals.
